Hi, I’m Cherie Irwin. I own CI Photobooth, along with my super cute husband David. Today, I decided that it would be a good idea to introduce ourselves to our clients, potential clients and anyone else who may read this little blog. My reasoning is plainly this: I am the CI in CI Photobooth! Every part of CI Photobooth has come from my imagination, my research and my love for all things fun and fierce. I am an outside the box kinda girl, and I’m married to a totally inside the box type of guy. It is a wild combination. I am the whimsical one always reaching out for the next big and interesting thing, while David is the one that holds tightly onto my rope and pulls me back down after I’ve drifted a little too far into the clouds. I am the silly one, always saying whatever I can to make others laugh. And, David is a little more serious. So, while he is there to keep me grounded, I do my best to lighten the air and raise his spirits. Sometimes, however, we flip roles. When I’m having a bad day, he somehow figures out how to make me laugh. He knows exactly what to do to make me happy. He makes me feel secure and takes care of me. I am deeply in love with him, and I think he still feels the same way about me.
“Why am I telling you all of this?”, you may ask. The answer lies in the fact that I personally attend every single event that CI Photobooth is privileged to participate in. And, David comes with me. He likes to say he is my assistant, but he is really like an extension of me. While he does all of my heavy lifting, he also interacts with guests throughout the entire night. He helps them figure out which props to wear, he assists little old grandmothers get in and out of the booth, he answers questions, repeatedly explains how the booth works, and he smiles at everyone that walks past. At the end of the night, he patiently helps me pack everything up. Then, he drives me home. So, since we attend every event, we want you to know who we are when you hire us. We want you to know the kind of people that will be there for you on your wedding day! We want you to know that we love weddings and are happy to be attending yours…
Yesterday, we celebrated the day that we got married, 8 years ago! The time has flown by, and we are more in love today than we were when we said our “I do’s.” And, because photos are such a big part of our life, we decided it would be appropriate to document the day with a photo shoot. The one and only Holly McCaig followed us around the gorgeous grounds of Cedar Lake Farm, one of my favorite wedding venues, to capture the love that we so openly share.
To Holly: Thank you for letting us share these with our friends on our blog. You are awesome!!!
Here are some of Holly’s favorites from the day…
