Photography: Bentley Wilson
Its hard to find a picture of the photographer. I'm pretty sure the picture above shows the moment after he took the photograph below (which I love):
One of the girls in this picture (who will remain nameless) had a couple of drinks and would call "Toddles" and point to herself when she wanted her picture taken which is, of course, ridiculous. Todd got a laugh out of it, but he did a great job of taking pictures of everyone at the wedding - not just the 25 people camped out on the dance floor.
Everything you've heard about Todd is true. He comes in the door snapping pictures. Its best to clean up before he gets there. We had clothes all over the bedroom and our bathroom was a mess. We had shoes and towels on the floor and clothes on the counter. If you don't want this stuff in your pictures, you better get it out of the way. Otherwise, like me and all the other messy people, you will be limited to head shots:
I am not very photo savvy. We didn't give Todd any direction about what kind of poses or locations we wanted. We didn't do a photo tour; we stayed at the Bellagio between the ceremony and the reception. Honestly, I didn't even know of any locations around the Bellagio. Luckily, Todd took charge and we just followed him around. He also gave us good direction about poses which was welcomed. We didn't take any pictures in front of the fountains because Todd figured that we had plenty of those from the ceremony. He found some other good spots, though. I'll put a couple of examples below that show some scenery in case anyone is looking for ideas. Overall, I think we ended up with over 1800 pictures from him and he delivered them to us relatively quickly.
