Joy in the Morning

I thought how strange it was that the world could be so beautiful and still hurt so bad at the same time.

Laura and Jason {Montgomery, AL Wedding Photography}

Laura and Jason had a beautiful wedding celebration at First United Methodist Church in Montgomery, AL. The weather was gorgeous and the dogwoods and azaleas were in full bloom.




Carrie Pinckard of Wetumpka provided the beautiful floral designs.




The groomsmen were absolute nuts and kept us in stitches the entire day!




Laura and her bridesmaids - along with all the family members - were so courteous and cooperative. It was just a pleasure to capture these classic images for her in this absolute treasure of a church.











After being pronounced husband and wife, the newlyweds continued their celebration at the Capital City Club in downtown Montgomery.



The father-daughter dance was very special.



The images in their gallery will feature documentation of the traditional reception events along with captures of their friends and family enjoying their evening...



... as well as a special moment at sunset.



Laura and Jason ended the reception with a big "WWWWAAARRRR Eagle!"




and departed for their honeymoon with many special memories of their very special day!



Laura and Jason, your entire gallery of images will be uploading to your online gallery tonight and should be released for viewing sometime on Monday. I hope you and your friends & family will enjoy the sneak peek while waiting. Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of this beautiful day!

Many, many thanks to Tiffany Hughes of Lucky Photography for helping me photograph this wedding. She is another one of those special blessings that I have received in this journey of photography and many of these captures would not have been possible without her. One photographer just can't be in all places at all times.

Thank you to Jeremy Fain of Path Video Productions (jfainpathproductions@gmail.com) for being such a pleasure to work with ... I've had some rather unpleasant experiences with videographers recently so was so happy to be able to work with someone like Jeremy.

The band at the reception was A.MA.ZING and I hope to do a separate blog post on them this week.

Enjoy!

Enjoy Carly {1 Year}

How quickly the year passed! It seems like just a few weeks ago I received an inquiry from Carly's mom about the Baby's First Year plan and here she is at one!



We documented this important milestone recently at Jasmine Hill Gardens and Outdoor Museum. You can tell I love this place! It affords so many wonderful areas to use as backgrounds.




And while this is certainly not considered "good portraiture" I could not help but capture Carly's little inquisitive spirit as she peeked through the gate at me. Love those eyes!



Carly's sweet mom and grandmother helped make the session delightful. "KayKay" could always get Carly to smile ... especially when she danced :)



Happy First Year, Sweet Carly!



Mom and Dad's full gallery of images is uploading to their online gallery.

Enjoy Bogey {Montgomery, AL Pet Photography}

I'd already had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Putt and Chip through the local Easter Seals Dogs-on-Call Program. And now I've met their adopted sibling, Bogey. Can you guess what their mom loves to do?



This may be my favorite pet image ever! I laugh every time I see it.



And can you tell that Bogey is very playful?



Reports are that he was so exhausted after our session he fell asleep in the car on the way home :)
