je vois photography

I love when my brides choose to order an album.  In elementary school, I loved creative writing.  And now that I’m a photographer, not a writer, it’s sort of the same thing.  I get to tell the story of the most important day of these couples’ lives through the photographs.  So, rather than posting a […]

We saw a sneak peek from this wedding way back in July, you may be thinking.  Well, yes.  Since that time, I had a baby, which slowed down my blogging just a little.  But don’t worry, I’m back with a vengeance and this 1st full wedding post, post-baby, is a BIGGIE!! Magen and Trey have […]

Peyton and Pres were married last Saturday. As the turbulent weather rolled through Birmingham, the delight that these two were feeling about beginning their lives together could not be tamed. I’m not ready for the full post yet, but as I’m editing, these 3 images are standing out to me. Simply because of the unfettered […]

Well, I’m sure you’re wondering what this gorgeous couple and their obviously fun wedding party did after their ceremony. Let me just tell you- they danced the night away. See for yourself… Announcing the happy couple! With her fabulous shoes.The happy, bigger, Sanford famThings are starting to get silly!Thank heavens for bridesmaids who will get […]

I had SO MUCH FUN at Jessica and Ryan’s wedding last month. I knew Jessica through my brother and his wonderful wife, and so I knew it was going to be a blast. She’s beautiful and fun and so are all of her friends. Thank you so much to Emily Joy Gresham for shooting with […]

I couldn’t resist posting this quick little favorite from Jessica and Ryan’s wedding, before I get the whole post done. It was my favorite even when I took it, but it has stayed a front-runner throughout the editing process. As at most receptions, people were a little reticent to be the 1st on the dance […]

I’ve exhibited such commendable will power to keep these bridal portraits to myself for the last several weeks. Jessica married Ryan on Saturday, and no one besides her mom, maid of honor, mother-in-law and I saw the dress before the big day. This includes her father! And bridesmaids! So, I would have been in really […]

Meet another of my adorable June couples! What fun I’m having with these delightful folks! Magen and I have known each other since at least high school, if not elementary (Magen?) However, we were reunited at a wedding I shot with Amelia Strauss last year for Arrah Canant Restifo. Magen was one of her REALLY […]

I’m not going to apologize for being behind on blogging or go on and on about how busy I am. Nope. I’m just going to give you a little taste of some things I’ve been working on, so you can look forward to the full posts to come!

Meet Lira and David. Let me tell you (aside from the obvious) why Lira is so beautiful. She has NO idea. She wouldn’t let Liz Young or me take a single picture until she was all the way ready, and even then I’m not sure she was enthused. Until she saw David… or maybe I […]

Kate and Brett were married at a church I love dearly, Altadena Valley Presbyterian Church, on a dreary day in September. Amelia Strauss and I COULD have forgotten about the rain though, because of the joy on sweet Kate’s face. She was beautiful and happy during the preparation process, but became a different girl altogether […]

Well, like most wedding photographers, I’m finally catching up on blogging all the madness from this fall. Here is a wedding from September or October (I can’t even remember which!!!) that I got to do with Amelia Strauss. It was so gorgeous, as are the bride and groom. The ceremony was at Our Lady of […]
