The moment I walked into GM 705 for Alden and Emma Grace’s rehearsal dinner in Birmingham, AL, I was excited. The tables were gorgeous, the linens beautiful, and the flowers were stunning, which comes as no surprise since Stems & Styles‘ work is always top tier. The couple had a custom cocktail list featuring their […]

I love weddings, which you already knew, but one of my favorite wedding details are the florals. Wedding flowers aren’t just pretty, they set the mood and tie everything together. As a Birmingham wedding photographer, I’ve photographed many weddings and seen some truly impressive and gorgeous flower displays and arrangements. Below are just a few […]

Natalie and Sam’s elegant spring wedding at The Club in Birmingham, Alabama, was a dream with a blend of timeless elegance, heartfelt moments, and joyous celebration. From their intimate terrace ceremony to the lively ballroom reception, every detail reflected their deep love and the thoughtful planning that brought their vision to life. Natalie and Sam’s […]

Recently, I had the absolute pleasure of photographing this elegant bridal brunch that was nothing short of enchanting. Collaborating with the incredibly talented Symone Shaw of  Occasions with Symone Shaw and the floral genius Suzanne Martensen of Stems & Styles, this event was a testament to the beauty of thoughtful planning and timeless design. Each detail came […]

All weddings are happy, but Anna and Patrick’s big day was full of pure joy from start to finish. From the moment I arrived in Decatur, AL, Anna’s hometown, I could feel how much love surrounded this couple. Guests traveled from near and far to celebrate them, and the happiness in the air was simply […]

Some weddings just feel like pure magic from start to finish, and Mary Elise and Ben’s enchanting dream wedding at The Club was exactly that. Every detail, every moment, and every vendor came together to create a celebration that was nothing short of amazing. It was an absolute dream wedding. Bridal Details Mary Elise’s bridal […]

A few years ago I ran across a wedding photographer out of Detroit whose work was perfect. My favorite instagram follow for sure. Niki Marie Photo. And then this fall she announced a workshop right near me in beautiful Charleston. It was chock full of learning and beauty and pampering and photo opportunities. So much […]

I’m backtracking a bit at the beginning of this new year and blogging some lovely weddings that I didn’t earlier, for no reason except I fell off my blogging wagon. However, these are weddings that simply need their moment in the spotlight! Lindsey and McCaleb’s wedding portraits at Flagstone Farm were a super-duper privilege to […]

Callen was one of the most beautiful brides I’ve seen. It COULD be because I’ve seen how beautiful her heart is over the years as I watched her grow up at our church, Altadena Valley Presbyterian Church, and as I watched her love my teenager as the girls discipleship leader in our youth group. She […]

This wedding proves to me again that my favorite ones are weddings when the bride and groom just want to elope, but they have a beautiful day instead because their families want to celebrate and they want good pictures! Janna and John called me only a couple months before their wedding and have reminded me […]

Kellie & Brandon have such an interesting story and some really beautiful and unique details thrown into their wedding day. They were stationed together in Alaska with the Army where they got to know each other. They weren’t allowed to date, so when they returned to Alabama everything really got going. Aren’t just those two […]

One of my most favorite things is to photograph multiple events in the life of a family. At least a decade ago I photographed Jenny and Peyton’s wedding and last year I met and photographed their beautiful daughter at her infant session (porch session as it was during the quarantine.) Last month I got to […]

Meg’s wedding combined with her personality was fun and unique. She wanted to marry Josh. She wanted it to be beautiful. And she hired people to make it so. Then she just enjoyed the day. The wedding had 5-star vendors, beautiful details and planning. With a laid-back bride. Stuff of DREAMS!!!!! We started out at […]

In November I shot the most beautiful wedding. I should have known. Nicole is an artist. Art director, graphic designer, etc. She was beautiful and everything she chose and organized was beautiful. But my favorite part of the day was the emotion. As soon as she started walking down the aisle the tears were flowing. […]

I talked to Jennifer more during the quarantine than any other bride. Her care for her family and guests in making plans for her wedding day was more thoughtful than any I’ve seen. She made sure to follow the ever-changing rules and protect those she loved most. And despite or maybe because of that it […]
