Once again, my dear Children of Blog, it’s time to gather ’round the ol’ digital glow of your interweb machines…for I am about to tell you a story about a wonderful & beautiful couple that go by the names of Kassy & Zach!  Now, it would be enough for me to just tell you some details about them, because they are just that awesome, but the story I’m going to tell is way better than that.  It’s a story about the two of them, a bunch of family & friends, and a wedding.

You heard me right, folks.  A wedding!  Yahoo for weddings!  And a doublewahoo for the wedding of this awesome couple!

We loaded up the Otis & James Caravan of Love (now featuring a 3 gallon jug of cheese puffs), and headed South to a magical and fantastical land called Bismarck.  The Mighty B.  The Capitol of our state.  Whatever you want to call it – we went there.  But not only did we go there, we also went to a pretty freaking sweet place where huge flying hawks that are black are, and took some of the straight up coolest pics we’s ever taken.

But it wasn’t the locations that made this day so awesome, it was this sweet couple and their equally sweet family & wedding party that made our job a breeze.  All we had to do was push the button on the camera – they were the ones that made all the magic.  We would love to give a gigantor MuchLove & ManyThanks to Kassy & Zach, and also to everyone that made our day so great!  Oh, and to all of you out there reading this on such a lovely summer day – Enjoy!

Gather ’round, my dear Friends of Blog, for I’m about to tell you a story.  This story took place in the not so distant past, in fact, it was just a little over a week ago.  This story involved a lovely lady and a gentle man, that we will call Jenna & Stephen!  The location for this story…a quaint little village that we will call Bismarck, or B-Town, or the Capitol of the great state of North Dakota.  Any one of those terms will work.

I suppose you’re wondering why we were in B-Town with this lovely couple, arent’ you.  Well, it wasn’t just so we could eat at Texas Roadhouse & stop by The Walrus for a couple of drinks afterward (even though that does sound good.)  Nope.  We were there for the incredible fantasticalmagical wedding of Jenna & Stephen!  Wahooo!

We had an absolutely wondrous time with not only the Bride & Groom, but with each & every person that worked with us to make this day so mightlymellow and gorgeous!  Truly, one of those things where we just show up with some cameras & stuff like that, and they make all of the magic happen – we just stand back and let the good times roll.  And you can take that to the bank.

Seeing as how I’m now just rambling on a bunch of non-sensical stuff, I think it’s time that we put a lid on all of these words, give a huge MuchLove & ManyThanks to Jenna, Stephen & their lovely Wedding Party, and to tell you…the good People of Blog to – Enjoy!

Folks, in case you didn’t get the memo, we’re back in wedding season now.  We’re going at 120%.  There’s no stopping us.  I know, you’re probably sitting there thinking, ‘Man, self, it just seems like we just got done with last wedding season.’, but you’ve got to get over that and get with the program.  We’re already going full-throttle.  I’m not kidding around here, my good peeps.  We’re all in.

What’s that you say?  You need some proof to back up these word that I’ve thrown your way?  Well, how ’bout you just relax for a second there, because I’m going to weave a little yarn for you.  It’s about an absolutely wonderful couple that goes by the name of Laurie & Scott.  What I’m going to tell you is this.  There was this day that was not all that long ago – if memory serves, you can practically count on your hands and with the help of a foot the number of days since this wonderful, magical fantastic day was!  Let me continue weaving this yarn by telling you that not only were the Bride & Groom wonderful to work with, each & every person in their wedding party helped make the day a breeze!

So, I hope you are all strapped in, because we’re in the middle of it, and we’re gonna keep on going ’till dawn.  I have no idea what that means, but I’m trying to find a way to finish up these words.  Let me just say, MuchLove & ManyThanks to Laurie & Scott for being so good to us, and to each & every one of you out there in Land of Blog on a night so fine – Enjoy!

And just like that, our Wedding season began again!  I can think of no better way to get this non-stop (at least until October) party rollin’, than with the totally awesome, the ever-lovely, the one & only…Kristin & Bill!  It was a marvelous, fantastic day – and would it be any other way?!  You see, with a couple this grand, it had to be a wonderful day!

Now, it would be enough if just this awesome couple were so easy to work with, but not only were they – but their entire wedding party was just as wonderful!  We tore it up, we tore it down, we came, we saw, we conquered, we showed wedding pictures just how they need to be done.  If you don’t believe me, then I just invite you to – as soon as these words are done – to look at the sweetlysweet samplesnaps.  You’ll see what I’m talking about, and it ain’t no jive.  Nope.

Alright, enough of all this blibberblabber, it’s time for us to give a huge MuchLove & ManyThanks to this awesome couple, and everyone else that made our day such a breeze, and to you, my good citizens of blogville, I tell you this – Enjoy!

Alright.  It’s time to once again fire up the Otis & James WayBack Machine, because we need to take a trip back in time…to a place in our not all that distant past, but yet long enough ago that there was still an abundance of snow, and we need to set the navigation system to a land called Mandan.  Now, when I use the term ‘navigation system’, that really means we just have to travel back in time, but we need to point the WayBack Machine to the South.  Hopefully we won’t make that wrong turn at Albuquerque  like we sometimes do.

The reason we’re firing up the WayBack Machine, you ask?  Well, it’s because we need to get to a special place & a special time that we are going to call the wedding of Brianne & Tyler!  DID YOU HEAR THAT??!!  Yeah.  OK.  Well, now you did.

It was a most wonderful day, but this wasn’t for any reason other than the fact that Brianne, Tyler and their beautiful Wedding Party were so totally & completely wonderful!  The magic was made, and it was all made by them.  And that’s a fact jack!

We would like to thank each & every person that helped make this day so wonderful, and to all my citizens of Blogville keeping the peace – Enjoy!

I really hope that the first thing you do when you wake up is sit in front of your computer and go to Land of Blog.  I know I do, but I’m paid to do it.  I’m not willing to offer any compensation to anyone out their for doing this, other than the reward of bliss.  Do you like bliss?  Then I’m going to tell you why I wish it.  Because of people like Kathryn & Brock, and their incredibly awesome supersweet samplesnaps that you are about to see.

I’m pretty sure that if everyone in this world that had the ability to do so did this – started their day with such beauty – there’d be a pretty good chance that we’d be well on the the way to peace, happiness, and total bliss.  I hope that today, right after you shuffle out of your warm beds, you have the good pleasure of plopping yourself down in front of the digital glow that is the interweb, dial in the otisandjames.com, and see these snaps.  Because if you do, you’re guaranteed to have a wonderful day.  Straight up, my peeps.  No joke.

We would like to take a moment now to thank each & every person that helped make this day so wonderful, especially Kathryn, Brock & their Wedding Party – you knew how to work it – no jive.  I’m straight talkin’.  So, without any further delay, sit back, get ready to bliss out and don’t forget to – Enjoy!
