Wall Blank: Curiosity



How neat! Shawn, of Wall Blank, chose one of our photos to feature on their site this week. It's such a wonderful concept and I'm excited to be featured! The photo will only be on the main page for today, Monday the 2nd of February, and available all of this week to purchase.

And now that we have an artist page with them, we'll be able to send them all sorts of stuff...including some of Andy's design works.

Wedding Website Updated





I've tweaked the Vertical House Weddings site a bit to include a fancy title script, an icon to access the blog, a favicon (yay!) and added new photos (of course!)

I'd love to hear any feedback!

Jennifer & Kelly Engagement Session



Jennifer and Kelly were brave to smile for a couple of hours during their engagement session photo shoot. It paid off to see the beautiful frozen waterfall on Monte Sano. The two lovebirds are sealing the deal in March in a beautiful location in Guntersville. I can't wait!

Ashley & Mason Engagement Session



I've spent the past two days uploading the 140+ photos from this engagement session. I went to high school with Ashley and Mason, and it was great to hear they (finally) are engaged! They are both such beautiful people that it was a breeze shooting them with the camera.

Ellie


A few weeks ago, Ellie, her mom (Tammy), grandmother and I tried to brave the FREEZING winds to do a photo shoot. In the end, we all decided it would be best to try again on a warmer day. After all, this is Alabama, and those mild days appear among our winters.

And Saturday was that day! Ellie is such a sport for the camera...and sometimes even quite the ham. Several times she showed us her fantastic winks and big smile! She was such a pleasure to work with and even a down right riot. Thank you Tammy and Ellie for such a fun day...and Ellie is quite the lucky girl with such a cool tricycle!

I used the fish eye lens during most of the shoot because kids always add such a fun element to it.

l o v e



I had the wonderful pleasure to photograph my long time friend Stephanie and her husband, Sean. She is pregnant, so technically, this is also my first maternity shoot! Sad news (but happy for them!) is they are moving to Portland in a week and a half. Stephanie is a fellow photographer and she is just as good on this side of the camera, too! Thank you to Stephanie and Sean...you two are so in love that it made my job super easy. I'm going to miss you guys, but I can't wait to hear about all the new adventures you'll have...especially when Lentil is here!

Fall Wedding



I had the pleasure of working with my great friend, Stephanie, at a gorgeous wedding set high atop Monte Sano Mountain. While the outside was chilly and foggy, the inside was warm with love and happiness. It had been raining all day long, right up until it was time to snap some photos outside. With the trees boasting their fall colors, it made for the perfect backdrop...way to go Mother Nature!

Congrats to Frances and Josh! I hope they have a lifetime of happiness!
