This was our second wedding with this family and it was a pleasure. Sheramie has a heart that you can see on the outside. She married into a wonderful family! I know she and Tyler will continue to radiate love!

Anytime we get to work with our friend, Rachael Grammer of Two Hearts Weddings & Events, we LOVE it!  There is no other planner that comes so prepared for ANYTHING to happen on a wedding day like Rachael.  I mean, she even has extra Snicker Bars for the vendors in case you get so hungry, you are hangry!  She takes care of everything, allowing you to do your job that you were hired for.    

Meet Calah.  She's gorgeous, both inside and out.  Her family is pretty awesome too. (Stay tuned for her sister's wedding film to be released in the new year.)  I just love the emotion on Matt's face when she was walking down the aisle.  It's such a beautiful thing. 

"It's perfect!!! Absolutely perfect. I couldn't even imagine anything more perfect! You guys are amazing, I love it so much!!! By the way, thanks for making me cry at work (it's a good cry though). Thank you so much for capturing my day so beautifully!" - Bride Calah

We were so thrilled to hear that one of our favorite venues was under new management.  Acres and acres of gorgeousness is what Applewood Farms is known for! It was the perfect setting for our horse-loving bride, Anna and her cutie groom, Nick.

Michelle and Donnie have a beautiful love story.  We were so thrilled to be a part of their Sunday afternoon wedding at The Sonnet House, in Leeds, Alabama.  

"Michelle chose soft, neutral colors for her wedding. For her bridesmaid’s dresses she handed out paint chips to her girls with the color palette she wanted. The result as each bridesmaid wearing a beautiful dress {in the proper color scheme} that was perfect for her body and most likely a dress they will wear again. The flowers were romantic, whimsical blooms and garlands perfect for a fall day." - The Sonnet House.  To read more, click here.

Now that the long anticipated magazine release is out, you can see the beautiful photo shoot of Norton's Weddings & Events.  Sure it is a long day filled with lots of hard work, but you do get to hang out with your "work friends" so it makes it all worth it!  

For this shoot, J Ross with Norton's trasforrmed the venue into a garden oasis.  You can see all of the pictues in the 2012 Alabama Weddings Magazine.  Here is the behind the scenes video that we did of all of the fun that goes along with a photo shoot!  A special thanks to Jerrod Brown Studios, Olexa's, Bella Couture, Mr. Burch Formal Wear, Melissa Moore Bogardus (makeup), Bromberg's, Andy Tolar with Design Productions and The Garage.

The minute that I spoke to Mrs. Pettus, I felt that I was part of their family.  She was just so warm, even on the phone.  When I drove down to meet she and her BEAUTIFUL daughter, Lauren, I knew it was a customer relationship that was going to last.  BTW, I know where Lauren gets her looks!!  Trey is a lucky man!

The wedding was to take place in a very old and beautiful church in downtown Montgomery.  The First Baptist Church was established in the 1800s (I believe).  It was an amazing cathedral-looking church with so many little details everywhere. 

The bride looked fabulous in her new gown from Bella Couture.  Both the mom of the bride and mom of the groom didn’t look half bad themselves!  (I see beautiful grandbabies in their future)

We had worked with Arden Photography several times so it was fun to be able to  work with her again.  She is very talented and her pictures always come out great! 

It was a beautiful ceremony!  Elegant, classic, romantic.  I am not sure that the Pettus family realized so many people were going to be in attendance.  It was standing room only in the balcony too!  We did a 4 camera setup for the ceremony.  We were lucky that the kneeling bench had a little tiny cubbyhole for our camera to be placed so that we could get an amazing shot of the bride walking down the aisle with her father.  As videographers, we don’t like to move during the ceremony, but getting that shot can be tricky, especially in a church.  BUT WE GOT IT!  That might have been my favorite part of the day.
 
After the ceremony, we went to the new venue in Montgomery, Alley Station.  I think we were the 3^rd wedding reception since they opened.  It still smelled like new paint.  It might be my new favorite reception location.  It had wonderful light (even around the band), several floors so if you didn’t want to hear the band, you could be on another floor, and very hip décor.  There was a rooftop area where we were able to get some incredible shots. 
 
The amazing day had to come to an end.  I might have even caught Lauren yawning right before the reception ended!  After a unique sendoff, Lauren and Trey left for the evening to go to their new home. And then onto the honeymoon on Sunday!  We wish the newlyweds all the best in life and love!

We arrived that morning to begin getting ready coverage for the bride and groom.  Doing all day coverage is our favorite – sure we are tired because it is a long day of shooting, but we love to be able to be with the family and capture everything that happens on the wedding day. And my favorite is capturing when the bride and groom 1^st see each other that day!!!  Priceless!
