A few weeks ago, I enjoyed the loveliest hot, summer wedding day with David and Holly.  They had been together for a long time and I should have know by their intricate plans for the future that the wedding would be impeccable.  I know you’ll agree that she is just gorgeous (her bridal portrait session […]

Mariglenn and Peter were married on a steamy August day at Covenant Presbyterian Church.  Her smile speaks volumes about the tone of the day… just excitement.  They were very obviously so excited to be together forever from this day on.  It was a pleasure to be a part of!  From Mariglenn’s prep at her aunt’s […]

I really love my job.  I am finally going back and playing catch-up on the last year’s worth of weddings and smiling all the way. This beautiful day for Gordon and Leigh was at Trinity United Methodist, where I spend quite a few wedding Saturdays! One of my favorite things about looking through the viewfinder […]

I apologize in advance that I am about to totally geek out about this wedding.  Of course there were many beautiful details and the day and weather and the reception was a blast and everything went perfectly.  But the relationships, particularly the groom with his bride, just got me.  I even looked at Lauren, who […]

What a fun weekend I had with Hayden and Brittin and all of their people.  It started with a beautiful and really fun rehearsal dinner at The Ridge at Lake Martin catered by the very talented Rob McDaniel and Springhouse.  Hayden is from Alexander City and Brittin from New Orleans, so this evening was to […]

You really couldn’t have dreamed up a prettier day for a wedding… spring in full bloom, mild weather and all at the impeccable Shoal Creek .  Rachael is just as beautiful and joyful as can be.  Her dress was different than so many and elegant without taking away from her youthfulness.  I had spent time […]

On a very hot day at Aldridge Gardens I got to see two of the sweetest people begin their lives together.  They surprised me with their unbridled affection at their engagement session a few months earlier, so I was really excited about this day with them!  And it didn’t disappoint.  Super tall Sean treats Sarah […]

In June, I had the wonderful privilege of accompanying Blair and Mark with a few of their closest friends and family to their wedding on St. John, in the US Virgin Islands.  Blair had planned everything to a tee and the group that came along was perfection.  Lots of emotion, lots of support and LOTS […]

As is the case with many weddings I am privileged to photograph, I loved this one.  Riley is so lovable.  AND she’s a graphic designer so she’s lovable with good taste… pretty perfect combo for a photographer.  And then, when you thought it was already perfect, she has an amazing family.  Their closeness reminds me […]

I’m so excited to finally be sharing Liz and Gardner’s gorgeous wedding with you.  Liz is just the epitome of southern grace.  She is so engaged when she talks with you… amazing eye contact, never interrupts, occasional touches to your shoulder.  She’s gentle and elegant in a way I long to be.  Plus she’s gorgeous.  […]

Amber and Blake were married way back in October.  When the weather was perfect.  Remember those days?  We spent the day at a place called Southern Magnolia, that I had never been to before, but that was just lovely in it’s southern charm.  The owners, who host only about a dozen weddings a year, were […]

I’m so obsessed with Liz’s bridal portrait session, and have had to keep it hidden for a month, that I’m scheduling it the night before her wedding to post JUST after her wedding.  Ha!!  When I first met Liz I thought she was pretty and so cute.  Also quite thorough while still soft spoken.  Easy […]

It was a struggle to decide in what order to post the two sessions I have for Drew and Rob.  The images in this post are from their “engagement session” the day before their engagement party, which included a surprise wedding.  I love these so much that I couldn’t hold out on you. Now for […]

I’ve been remiss about blogging lately.  Mostly it’s been due to playing catch-up on client deliverables.  And I have so many things going on in my brain that I’d like to blog, that it bothers me when I don’t get to it.  So, here we go. I’m going to start featuring a fellow wedding vendor […]

My long-time friend Ashley Berkery, a marvelous wedding planner, told Craig about me last year as soon as Craig and Matt were engaged.  My initial meeting with her was lengthy because I just kept asking questions.  For such a young lady, she has already had quite an eventful life.  A supportive family, out-of-town college experience, […]
