The Wedding of Dani & Emery!

One of my dear friends from my old church in Atlanta got married this past weekend to her sweetheart! Dani is truly a 'ray of sunshine' as all of her friends and anyone who meets her toasted to her at the reception! This was my first meeting with Emery, just before the wedding...I won't say he was a little nervous! The February wedding day couldn't be more perfect with the weather and atmosphere of this event! It was so fun - and SO emotional for everyone. (I didn't post any crying shots! Tears of joy abound!) I will let the photos tell the story... more can be found on Facebook!

I love the face of her father as he walks into the room and sees her before heading down the aisle! 

It was truly a beautiful and touching wedding, I am so thankful to be a part of your day, as your photographers, as guests and most of all your friends! Enjoy!

Charmaine & Kenwin - and KJ, age 2!

We got to spend about an hour with one of my sweetest friends (who's also a photographer!), Charmaine and her husband - and their adorable boy, KJ! He has grown SO much since I last saw him at 6 months old. What a cutie! They are such a beautiful (and growing!) family! Below are some of my favorites we got downtown Atlanta...

What a gorgeous couple! Whooohooo! You are such a blessing in my life, Charmaine! I'm so glad we got to spend even a moment together, we'll do it again soon! Love you!

I Do with a View! 7 (make that 8!) couples wed at Vulcan Park!

I Do with a View was a huge success! Seven couples wed atop Birmingham's Red Mountain at Vulcan Park overlooking the city on Valentine's Day. An impromptu wedding also occurred - keep reading! It was made possible by the wonderful sponsors! The ladies below represent GoPro Event Solutions - the bread and butter in bringing everyone together!

The article posted in the Birmingham News can be read here. 

Here are the sponsors that made this event happen!

 Now on to the weddings - The First couple is Tracey & William! This couple had such a sweet story!

Nicole & Daniel were Couple #2!

Couple #3 was Karen & Robert! (So in love, they couldn't get close enough during the ceremony!)

Couple #4 Kerri & Jeremy - Jeremy even placed a ring on Kerri's daughter's finger - how sweet!

Couple #5 Leigh & Justin - very fun couple!

Couple #6 Layle & Chris! Another amazing story of reconnecting with true love!

And the impromptu wedding of Mike & Francis - they remarried and their life together as one has been renewed! Mike is an employee at Vulcan Park. God works in mysterious ways, but it's always perfect timing and through love!

And now the Sunset Wedding winners were Ashleigh & Ross! Another beautiful couple!

Many thanks to everyone who made this day possible. It may sound 'Vegas-style' to do so many weddings in one day (I'm sure next year will be even bigger!), but after photographing 8 in one day, every single bride and groom are so unique and special - I teared up watching these couples so in love commit their lives to each other! Special thanks to Francesca at GoPro Event Solutions for connecting me with this event as well as to Jack P. (the officiant), my long lost friend from Atlanta!

To the couples - congratulations on your marriage and being a part of a memorable Valentine's Day event! Your galleries will be posted online this week, password is vulcan. You will get your pre-selected images on disk via mail (please contact me with any updated addresses/contact info).
If you would like a personalized disk of your entire wedding/gallery, please get in touch!

Nora's Sweet 16!

Nora had the coolest theme at the perfect time for her Sweet 16! MARDI GRAS! And her birthday is tomorrow, Fat Tuesday! We ALL had so much fun - the masks, the king cakes, the dancing - it was great! I'll let the photos tell the story - Happy Birthday, Nora! You are amazing and so blessed with a wonderful family and friends!

Check out her photo booth!

Levi - 9 days Part II

I have been traveling lately which has made my blogging efforts a little slower... so I wanted to finish up Levi's post so you could all see some more from his beautiful newborn session!

I love newborn photos in black and white - they go right for the emotion and sweetness! And I love this one below of Levi - it's sort of a smile :)

Thank you again, Kim and Sean! I look forward to seeing him grow!

A little wedding special....

Levi - 9 days

Levi was born just 9 days ago! He is such a sweet baby despite his efforts to NOT sleep! I wanted to post this small preview for his proud parents as I'll be taking a little break this upcoming week to visit with my family.

We captured many images of Levi and his parents along with his big brother and sister. I'll share more in the next few weeks! Congratulations!

Emma - 3 months!

Emma just turned 3 months old! She is such a beautiful little girl - and has the endurance of a tri-athlete with all we put her through! (so sorry Emma!) But I think the photos were worth it!

She looks so squeezable in these photos with her mom and dad!!

 

One of my favorites - note the drool - lol!!! (Emma may not think it's so cute when she's 16!)

Thank you for a wonderful session to meet and photograph little Emma! Enjoy!
