Paulie's Wedding: The Ceremony

This past Saturday was Sammy's Uncle Paulie's wedding. Paulie and Shirley had a wonderful day...a nice temperature, low humidity, and clear sky. The ceremony was nicely done. Unfortunately Sammy was a bit restless, so he and Paul spent part of the ceremony outside...so we didn't take nearly as many photos as we would like to have. Additionally, Paul had problems with the interior shots in a large space with low light (someday he'll have to read his camera's manual!).

Both Paulie and Shirley seem very happy together and we sincerely wish them all the happiness in the world together.


The wedding was at St. Matthews in East Syracuse, NY...
