Spartanburg Wedding Photographer : The Great Car Alarm Incident

I don’t really think I’m someone who tries to project an air of being hip at all, but sometimes my own lack of cool surprises even me.  I got locked in my own car recently, while out running errands with Steven.  Not out of it; IN it. 

Steven and I had been running errands all morning one day last week, and around stop number 57, I asked if it would be okay if I just waited in the car while he ran into the farmer’s market to grab one quick thing.  Well, it was supposed to be a quick trip in, so I didn’t think anything of it when Steven turned the car off and locked it.  You can probably imagine where this is going…it got hot in the car after less than a minute.  Since Steven had the keys, I couldn’t crank the car, but I thought I’d just open the passenger door.  It wouldn’t open.  I pushed the unlock button.  Nothing happened.  At that point, my very mature, rational reactionary processing had me completely convinced that I was going to suffocate before my husband came back out to release me.   So, I attempted to pry the lock on my door up, to force it to unlock.  Well, apparently our car DID NOT like that, because the alarm started to sound.  That was great fun, with all the people within a hundred foot radius staring in my general direction, all looking both horrified and embarrassed for me.  I’m pretty sure that my husband (who happened to stroll back out at that exact moment), considered just leaving me there and taking a cab home.

Before my days of trapping myself inside my own vehicle, Halie and Michael were married.  They are so stinking adorable, and I loved everything about this wedding…from the bridesmaids dresses, to the peacock feathers at the receptions, to their fabulous getaway car...which I'm pretty sure they didn't get trapped in.

 

All of Halie's bridesmaids signed the bottom of her shoes for luck...

I'm pretty sure that's not actually how these guys feel about marriage...

Halie, you are so, so, so stunning!

My favorite...and literally the last shot of the day!  Love!
