Who: Holly + Stephen
What: Wedding
When: April 21, 2007
Where: The Beach Club Gulf Shores | Gulf Shores, AL

Holly + Stephen are *finally* married! < --- It seems like forever ago when we sat down to talk about their wedding plans - when they were just getting started with their planning for the Big Day. Well, all of their hard work really paid off - it was such a beautiful wedding, down to the smallest detail - See for yourself!

Stephen & the boys:

I love the light in this room:

There’s this moment that I’ve come to look for in every bride’s day when it all sets in and the reality of the moment hits them - ‘it’s my wedding day. right now. it’s happening.’ And at that moment, there is a visible reaction - sometimes subtle and sometimes, well — see Holly:

Stephen seeing his bride for the first time! Also, I love the little ones here:

Holly described her MOH, Mindy, to me as ‘my other half’. Such a sweet and quiet shot of Holly’s best friend:

I now pronounce you hubby & wifey:

The kiss!

They compliment each other so well!

LOVE THIS!

Go Noles! < --- Wait, who said that?!

Garter:

Congratulations, Newlyweds!

Who: Baby Addison
What: Newborn Session
When: April 15, 2007

Every so often we are asked to photograph a baby/kid/life event that is - well - outside of our everyday assignment of weddings. Typically we will find a kind way to send the inquiry to another source, but every so often Meg and I will be swayed by the subject This was one of those times… Jennifer was VERY pregnant when we worked on Mia + David’s wedding together - which you might remember seeing here rehearsal & wedding, which was coordinated by Jennifer & her team at It’s A Shore Thing

Fast forward a few weeks to Meg photographing her beautiful baby girl, Addison! Here are a few images from their session.

Welcome to the world, little one.
