Kickball, croquet, liquid nitrogen, redwoods, beautiful, smiling bride and groom and tons of happy guests. What more could you ask for from a wedding?
A bride playing kickball is a sight to see, especially when she gets tagged out by her new husband! Emily’s a grad student in Physics at UC Davis, and it wouldn’t be a physicist gathering without the liquid nitrogen, so I asked my friend Cassandra (who works with Emily and referred her to me in the first place) to get some from her lab. She was more than happy to oblige…
I had Erika and Jeff working with me at this event, so with an extra assistant I was able to try out something I’ve been wanting to do for a while: we set up some studio lights in a small copse of trees and turned it into a little “photo booth” where the guests could wander by and have their picture taken. There were a lot of families here, so a lot of them took the chance to get an impromptu family portrait, and it was lots of fun.

Yup, that’s liquid nitrogen - don’t they have that at every wedding?
