Lindsay and Jacob Engagement Photos Saturday Evening

2010-08-22T07:21:00.001-05:00

Jacob and Lindsay made the trek from Tuscaloosa to Montgomery Saturday night for their engagement photos. The weather called for rain but we lucked out and had perfect August humidity and a slight breeze, but thankfully no rain. We were able to secure some cool bikes for them to ride around on and re live their childhood before they take the next step into marriage! Best of luck to you both. See you in May!

Brie's Senior Photo Shoot!

2010-07-25T07:34:00.000-05:00

Ms. Brie definitely made my job easy Saturday morning when we met to shoot her Senior Photos! She was ready with about 5 outfit changes and poses that would make any model proud! Brie also wanted her pups in a few shots and I gladly obliged. The photos started out at a friends beautiful back-yard then we moved to "Hampstead" on Taylor Road in Montgomery to finish the day. A special thanks to Mom Renay for assisting as "Boom operator" holding my flash and soft box for many of these great shots.

Senior Saturday!

2010-07-11T16:13:00.000-05:00

School is about to start back for the class of 2011, so now is the time to call and schedule your Senior Photos like Morgan did! We had a blast shooting around Montgomery and got some fantastic memories for Morgan and her family and friends. Check out a few from Saturday evening.

Greg and Meredith Engagement Shoot!

2010-06-28T19:01:00.000-05:00

Greg and Meredith will tie the knot in September, and I was honored to be chosen as their wedding photographer! Sunday night was the planned engagement shoot and we thought Mother Nature was going to have her way and rain us out. Instead, we had a cooler (for Alabama in the summer) breezier night for some extremely fun photos. Enjoy!

Photo Shoot at Huntington College

2010-06-26T15:11:00.002-05:00

Here are a few great shots from my photo-shoot this morning at Huntingdon College in Montgomery. Sometimes shoots with young children are stressful and sometimes you only get a handful of useful photos. This one was different and Mr. PJ was fantastic!

Saturday Morning Photo Shoot!

2010-06-12T14:49:00.000-05:00

It was predicted to be the hottest day of the year in Montgomery, so we decided to get an early jump on some fun photos of miss Addison! Here are just a few from this morning.

Vermont Brownie Company Brownies for your Wedding?

2010-06-08T20:48:00.000-05:00

Every once in a while I come across an item that needs to be promoted. The Vermont Brownie Company has perfected the brownie and they deserve to be promoted! Check them out to order as wedding favors at your wedding or luncheon etc. I have personally consumed a few, ok 6, of these bad boys, and I am in love!

After an amazing ceremony in the Childrens Chapel, the bride, groom and wedding party took off across the lake in a boat on their way to the reception at Sinclairs.

Midnight Photo Shoot

2009-12-20T22:00:00.002-06:00

This was shot close to midnight in the Alley Way in Downtown Montgomery. I love the city setting for portraits as it gives a totally different look than so many other photos.

2009-12-19T13:45:00.002-06:00

The Alley Station in downtown Montgomery blew me away. If you are looking for a venue for your wedding reception, this is the place for you. More space and accommodations than you can imagine and is 1st class all the way. Located adjacent to the Alley way and directly across the street from the Renaissance Hotel.

A special thanks to the "Anderson Clan" for allowing me to shoot their annual family photos. Luckily we were able to shoot some at the beautiful Wynlakes Golf Course in Montgomery. You can't ask for much nicer than that.

Pattys "Big Redneck Wedding?"

2009-06-22T07:42:00.000-05:00

Patty really wanted me to call this her "Big Redneck Wedding" but in reality, I only saw 4 dogs running about during the ceremony, and the donkey was a good 75 yards from the wedding cake itself... So, I can honestly say that this event was anything BUT a redneck event. The location was beautiful and there wasn't a tractor pull or demolition derby in site! Congratulations my friend, I know you will both be very happy together!

Adam and Lindseys Wedding

2009-06-14T20:11:00.000-05:00

They are available as wedding favors for guests at dinner or in large quantities for a banquet style wedding.
