Drew and Joette...married AGAIN

Joette and Drew have a really special story. They met and fell in love while they were both in the army. Drew got the call that he was going to be sent to Iraq, so they had a quick ceremony in 2005 before he left. So now a year and a half and one child later, they found some time to include their family and friends and celebrate their union all over again.
It was such an awesome day. At first I was FREAKING out because it was an outside ceremony and it was most definitely going to rain. Alison White (simply elegant events) was her wedding coordinator and she is just soooo fabulous! I highly recommend her. She handled all the day's issues (like rearranging the tent twice before the ceremony) and calmed Joette down when she started panicking during the rain. But just as the carriage of girls pulled up to meet the groomsmen, the rain stopped and the sun came out and the angels started singing...no not really...but that's what it felt like...It was such a great ceremony. Congrats guys and thanks so much for letting me photograph your wedding!


Their little girl decided to jump on in during the ceremony!


I got some of the cutest expressions during the ceremony





I am not sure why but I LOVE this pic. It cracks me up every time I look at it!

My new nephew!

Last week Aunt Kelly had her baby...He is soooo stinkin' cute and the most alert newborn I have ever seen!! The pic in the birth announcement was taken when he was only like 5 days old! He looks like he's smiling, but actually he was crying... poor kid...already being tortured by Aunt Sara's camera!

Congrats Hilary and Jess

Hilary and Jess were married at St. Cecelia Catholic Church last Friday. It is one of the most beautiful churches I have seen in a long time. The night flew by and everyone had a blast at the reception. Congratulations guys and thanks for letting me share your night!

YAY! Brooke and Clint got married

First let me just say that I have been very lucky since I have started to have all really fabulous couples, but Brooke and Clint really hold a special place in my heart. I adore this couple and the chemistry they have and the way the look at each other...man...it's awesome. Brooke is so funny because she stalks this blog religiously and she even knows names of past clients from reading here. I truly had a blast at their wedding...but it didn't come without stress...we were running SUPER short on time..the most time crunched I have ever seen...but we still managed to squeeze 15 minutes of pics in down at the stadium!

Brooke...I know you're reading this...I want to sincerely thank you and Clint for letting Stef and I be a part of your day. You made us feel more like friends instead of vendors! Best wishes and stay in touch!! Love you guys!!

Here's a quick slide show of some images of their day.

Jenna and Tim

On Friday, June 1st I got to shoot Jenna and Tim's wedding down at the Randall Art Gallery! I met up with them earlier in the week so Jenna could give me a quick tour of the place! It is so neat and all the guests were talking all night long on what a great venue this place is! Stef and I had a lot of fun and we got to work with Mike from Thunderstorm Media! Another first for me was, Jenna hired the band "Fantasy" to play at her wedding! It was the first time I have ever heard a live band at a reception! Man, they soooooo ROCK! They had the crowd up on their feet dancing all night long! Anyways...the wedding was spectacular! Thanks so much for letting me share your day with you guys! Congratulations!
