Last Saturday 8.2.08 Chad & Zebrina tied the knot. It seems like I just met with them, and talked over all the things ahead of them.. but it happened & it was a beautiful thing to be a part of. They are a very sincere, very aware couple but they also have a fabulous sense of humor.. at least I thought this combo of things on the table was funny - a baby bumbo & Jack Daniels.OK.. this post is full of details because Zebrina put a ton of thought into all her amazing details. I just absolutely adore days that are saturated with personality!! Check out her amazing red shoes Oh.. Vendor plug!! Here's a picture of Jeff Simpson - one of my favorite DJ's. I HIGHLY recommend him - he's awesome! He was spending some time with Zebrina to make sure she was pleased with all of her ceremony music.. along with the fabulous coordinator - Cara from a Southern Soiree. More yummy details... Yummier... Yummiest And of course red lips to top it all off!! Chad & his brother having some hang time in the last single moments of Chad's life oh man.. This moment. The emotion, the sky - it was all so beautiful. I thought this was awesome - the rings were passed from the end of the line of bridesmaids & groomsmen down to the center until they reached Chad & Zebrina. How cool is that?! My best buddy Beth helped me & she was insistent with getting umbrella shots. She knows I am easily distracted, so she kept me centered on getting some awesome shots like these sweetness This shot means a lot to me, because I know it will mean a lot to them A little spanking is definitely the best way to end the day

Blast to the past - July 26th. AHH!! Moving is tough! I am finally semi moved in, but have tons of work ahead of me to have you all over. But it's time to get this blogging thing back on track!! Bethany & Jared tied the knot July 26th, and it turned out to be a crazy wild day. And by crazy wild - that means I had a great time! I love being able to do engagement sessions, because by the time I show up to the wedding I have a much MUCH better idea of how dynamics will work & it just makes everyone more comfortable knowing how I interact. Me, Bethany & Jared had a great time at their engagement session, so I was really looking forward to their big day. Bethany teaches children by day, but is a rocker by nature. And how fabulous is the light in that left shot?! Unlike a lot of ceremonies at churches, I love being able to get up close & personal at outdoor weddings. I think they look like a famous couple here.. Ashley from Story Photographers shot with me, and she got this super cool shot. Converse = big deal. I know you don't exactly see Jared's best side in this shot, but I love Bethany's expression tee hee.. Ashley also gets amazing ring shots.. accented with one of my tub shots.Bethany & Jared had an awesome first dance. And being a dancing maniac myself, it was hard to resist getting out on that floor with them. Thankfully, I found some self restraint. In this shot you will find both me & Ashley in the mirror taking this exact same shot within a couple of inches of one another. We were both so engrossed by the dance, neither of us had any idea that we were getting the exact same shot from the exact same angle. Yep - it's out of focus and I like it Look how Bethany's dad placed her hand over his heart. precious.This shot isn't as sentimental, but look how hot the Preston Woodall House reception room looks!! Those lights are deliciousTurns out Bethany wasn't the only rocker there Her brother put on quite a show. I haven't tried this particular dance move, but with a little practice, I think I could do it too. Note to photographers: Get Lightroom & get the upgrade. The latest upgrade does all kinds of fun stuff. Yes - the light in this shot just happened to hit perfectly but it was only edited in Lightroom. No Photoshop at all!! Oh mama.. Thank you Ken for insisting on getting it!!
