The Wedding of Jodi & Drew!

I'm finally getting a chance to blog Jodi and Drew's wedding from last weekend! What a gorgeous wedding, couple and perfect day! God definitely smiled on their special day!

A shot of Jodi & Drew on the front steps after their First Look in the sanctuary of the First Baptist Church in Montgomery. It is such a beautiful church for a wedding! Jodi's cathedral length veil provided many photo ops!

Jodi & her father and Drew and his mother's first dances...to the sounds of Charlie C and the Coozematics if you are a local band follower! (and love Rod Stewart covers! yeah!)

A sweet and maybe first quiet moment as husband and wife...

Jodi and Drew are out of their reception at the Train Station downtown and off to their honeymoon :)

Thank you, Jodi & Drew, for having me as part of your day! You two are a great couple and have so many great things to look forward to together. I'm so happy for you and blessed to capture your wedding!

The H Family!

Check out the attitude on Odessa! She is one of the cutest 2-year olds that ever wore me out, lol! We had a beautiful family session with Odessa and her parents - once again, back at Hampstead! - and captured some great personalities and scenery.

This is one of my favorites of her - her mom did a great job on her outfits and cute little hat!
It was perfect!

Thank you so much for the opportunity to photograph your family! We couldn't have asked for better weather in mid-November! It was great to meet you as well, looking forward to getting together again!

Amanda & Chele!

I got to meet Amanda & Chele for their photo session, also at Hampstead, recently! Of course, I had them in the flowers as well...the places people go for my shots, lol! They are such a cute couple (as you can tell!) - the shot below is an interesting combination of the shadow shot and the 'sexy'-hands-in-each-other's-pockets shot...

Love it!

Thanks for the opportunity to meet you and be my models for a beautiful afternoon! We will have so many great options for some snazzy Christmas cards!

Amy & the boys!

We had a beautiful afternoon to photograph Amy and the boys'! The lighting was perfect at Hampstead in Montgomery. It is a great location with many photo opportunities! And the red barn is right up Jaxon and Wyatt's alley, as they are little farmers at heart. Well, they were looking for the tractor, anyway!

Jaxon, the big brother.

Wyatt, the little brother. Got some great attitude shots of him, but you wouldn't know it from this sweet face!

What a beautiful family! It was great to hang out for a bit, Amy, and reconnect - hope to see you all again soon! [Hi Donna!]

The Wedding of Becca & Levi!

Becca & Levi were married this past Sunday at the Marengo House in Lownesboro, AL - it could not have been more of a perfect day! The weather, the details, the friends and family - it all came together for this special couple.

A shot of metal and diamonds ;)

The beautiful bride!

The handsome groom! The black and white decor of the house was perfect - right down to Levi's chucks!

Becca & Levi read their own vows to each other...I don't recall what they said, but it put a few tears in my eye...

The coolest grooms cake ever! The infamous Mystery Machine!!! Did I mention it was red velvet and it was soooo tasty?!?

Levi is shipping out this coming weekend to serve our great county so they don't have a lot of settling down together at this time. Just wanted to say thank you, Levi, and you're in our prayers for protection and a safe return - and also for Becca while she is waiting for you to come home! Congratulations!

The Engagement of Amber & Billy!

What an awesome couple! I finally [after months and months] got to meet Amber & Billy in Talladega this past weekend for their engagement session! They seemed open to about any location for a shoot, but we ended up at a couple places. We finished up at the old Kymulga Mill which has a covered bridge and beautiful trails.

A shot 'in' the bridge.

I'm not sure why, but this tree stood out to me...

Love.

They are getting married at Brignoli Manor in April. I'm already looking forward to it!
It was great to meet you, Amber and Billy, and hang out on such a beautiful day!

Melisa's Maternity

Melisa & Riley are two of my coolest friends - I photographed their wedding in Atlanta a few years ago - has it been 4 or 5? Now they are expecting their first little one in just a few weeks! I'm so excited, I'll be Auntie Shae again! :)

Melisa is the cutest thing in the world. Moreso with a rubber duckie.

It was great to see you, I am looking forward to seeing all three of you really soon! God bless!
