It thoroughly enjoyed working with Adena and Matt. A wonderful, fun couple.
Outdoor weddings are always somewhat of a gamble in this area. On the day of their wedding, the thunder would roll and the rains could be seen threatening in the distance, but they stayed away and the wedding went off without a drop leaving [...]
Courtney and Brett were such a fun couple to photograph. Their wedding was Crossings, which of course is wonderful place to have a wedding. It was a perfect day for a perfect wedding. The hardest part was deciding which ones to post here!

One of my favorite images comes from Amanda’s bridal portrait. Justin was away at marine boot camp, and had written her a multiple page letter every day they were apart. She wanted to incorporate those in her bridal portrait. We sat her down on the floor, and then scattered the letters all around her.
The second [...]
Normally I would not use a bridesmaid photo as my hallmark image from a wedding. However, the story behind this is important. I photographed Sofia’s wedding Edith’s wedding (either side of the bride). The only wedding I did not photograph of the four of these ladies was Elizabeth. I jokingly asked her about that. She [...]
Kristen’s wedding was at 5:00 and her reception wouldn’t be until 7:00. This allowed us to some time between the ceremony and the reception to get some great pictures of the couple. It rarely happens that there is extended time for me to work with the couple. Too often the reception follows the ceremony and [...]
Tara had seen the photographs I had done for some of her friends (Staci McCart-Johnson and Melissa Richardson-Jones). The wedding was at the Capitol with a reception at the History Center. Both of these locations offer wonderful opportunities for creative and fun images.
Tara had one very specific request at the reception. She wanted a photograph [...]
I had gotten to know the Shelton family when I photographed the double wedding of Elizabeth’s sisters about 10 years ago. Yes, a double wedding – two brides, two grooms and whole lot of bridesmaids, groomsmen and three different families.
Elizabeth’s wedding would not be the large production of her sisters. [...]
What is the second biggest nightmare for a bride? (I’m assuming that the number one nightmare is the groom doesn’t show up.) I think the second nightmare would have to be unable to attend your own wedding. Brooke got close. Less than a week before the wedding she was [...]
I have to admit that whenever I hear, “we’re getting married at the Crystal Bridge”, I shudder. Yes, it’s very pretty. The green plants and tropical color make a wonderful background. Crystal Bridge is a giant greenhouse and greenhouses are kept warm and humid. In the summer months, Crystal Bridge [...]
You can thank your friends. Greg was a groomsman at a wedding I photographed about a year ago, and that couple (Rich and Staci Johnson) told Stephanie and Greg where to go for great photography. It’s always fun work in a group where you know people and they know each other.
Yes, two of [...]
