Welcome, gentle reader, to the Richard McBlane Photography blog. I've never blogged before. To be honest with you I'm not entirely sure how to go about it. All I know is that the world has somehow convinced me that it's something I need to be doing. I swear that I actually just had to double check that 'blog' could be used as a verb, lest I sounded like some out of touch grandad who only reads about the internet in newspapers.

So here I am. Blogging away. Let's make my first post a good one...

This weekend our friends Aly and Dustin got married in San Antonio. While I wasn't their official wedding photographer, I was very kindly invited to get some shots of Aly and her bridal party getting ready before the ceremony. Let me tell you, I was in that hotel suite for hours, and there wasn't one single second where I wasn't having a blast. Aly's friends and family are incredible. Each and every one of them was clearly devoted to ensuring that her day went perfectly. Everybody was in high spirits and the atmosphere in the room was so relaxed. It made my job ridiculously easy. I got so many good shots and I'm just sorry that I can't include them all in this one post. Pay particular attention to the photos near the bottom of the page (I've included one from the wedding itself, just for fun). I'm sure you'll agree Aly is quite the stunner. Quite the stunner indeed.

Congratulations Aly and Dustin! Your wedding was awesome.
