Remember when I shared last Spring that I CAUGHT ON FIRE AT A WEDDING? Well, I have another equally classy wedding day incident to share with you from Brian & Heather's wedding last Saturday at Silverleaf Club. The day went beautifully. Gorgeous couple, great venue -- I'm loving life. So we're at the reception and it's time for me to take the blue sky shot of the venue. I walk down the hill and get this image:
On my way back up I'm looking off to my right and see the next shot I want to take. This beauty:
...and I FULL ON RUN INTO A CACTUS.
I've lived in Phoenix for 21 years. Never once have I gotten stuck by a cactus. No, I waited until I was working at a classy venue shooting a beautiful wedding to be impaled by cacti spines.
If you look closely at the image I took just moments before said incident occurred, you will see the perpetrator. A cholla.

After running into the cactus with my upper left arm, I proceeded to take the shot I had been envisioning and then made my way back up to my assistants who were sitting outside on the patio. We had a good laugh, Lizzie snapped this photo:
And then Shannon extracted 12 spines from my arm. Fun times.
Yet another lesson to add to the book 'o classy wedding day blunders -- and this one is deep: Watch where you are going.
