Rachael and Blaine got married at the end of September and it was such an amazing day!  I just love shooting weddings of people that I know and love.  I have known Rachael and her family for several years now and having the opportunity to photograph her wedding was such an honor.  I just adore her and she is seriously one of the most beautiful people I know.  Inside and out!  I am so happy for her and Blaine.  Their day truly was a reflection of who they are as a couple.  They were both just beaming all day and were so happy to start their lives as a married couple.

if you know Rachael, you know that she LOVES Christmas.  This was one of the best "pre-wedding husband to wife" gifts I have ever seen.  It was FULL of all things Christmas.  Christmas movies, Christmas CD's, and hot chocolate.  I'm pretty sure it was Rachael's favorite thing she saw all day.

These next few are some of my favorite moments from any wedding, but especially this one.  Look at Rachael's sister's face as they kiss for the first time as husband and wife!

and then, those first few moments that they couple have together as everyone else is coming down the aisle are always so sweet.  first moments alone as a married couple!  I love how excited they were to peer around the corner to see what was going on!

and this was probably the greatest, happiest, first dance ever.

I can't believe that wedding season has come to a close.  I survived my first year shooting weddings with a baby!  Working from home with a child definitely has its' ups and downs, but overall, I couldn't have asked for a better year.  I have been blessed with this amazing boy and such great clients.  I feel really lucky.  Blogging may have taken a little bit of a hit this year, but I am on my way to get caught up!

Sarah and Matt got married at the end of September on an absolutely beautiful day at one of my favorite places, The Reserve at Bluebird Hill.  Jane Hall and the crew are amazing to work with and I just absolutely love shooting there.  This was a day full of excitement, and laughter, and joy as two people came together to join as one.  It was such a fun thing to be able to photograph their day.

Thank you all so much for allowing us to be a part of it!!

I just had to share a few photos from a portrait session that I had the privilege of shooting a couple of weeks ago.  Nikki is a dear friend of mine from middle school, high school, and college.  We were roommates in the greatest house of all time, "graceland".  We have had so many fun times together it was just so fun to take photos of her in her mother's!! wedding dress :)  Everything about this session was perfect.  Nikki looked amazing and the light was just gorgeous.  She made such a beautiful bride.  Here are just a couple of my favorites.

Are y'all just loving this weather?!?!  I know I am!  After the scorcher of a summer we just had, I am welcoming fall with open arms!  Although, fall is always my favorite time of year.  The weather, everything PUMPKIN, the trees, I mean, what's NOT to love?!  This next wedding was such a great way to wind down the summer wedding season.  Not only was it just a beautiful day, but this venue! Absolutely GORGEOUS!  If you are looking for a place to have a small, outdoor wedding, you absolutely need to check this place out.  It is called Willow Tree Cove and it really is one of the prettiest places I have been to.  Tara was such a stunning bride and her and Danny were so excited to get married.  It was so fun to be surrounded by all of their friends and family on their amazing wedding day.  I hope it turned out to be everything they dreamed to be!!

Now that summer is coming to an end, I am finally getting caught up on some of my fabulous summer weddings!!  Summer is such a busy time around here, but feel really lucky to have the brides and weddings that I have had.  Fall is right around the corner and I. CAN'T. WAIT!  To say the least this summer has been, HOT.

This wedding was actually on a beautiful summer day.  With an outdoor ceremony planned, an afternoon down pour was a little nerve wracking, but as you are going to see, it cleared up very quickly and made for an absolute beautiful wedding day.  Kate is really one of the most beautiful people I think I have ever seen.  Her sweet spirit seems to really come through in her gorgeous eyes.  Her and James were such a fun, sweet, couple and had one of the most fantastic get-away surprises I have EVER SEEN!!!
