Krisitn and John
Hello Everyone-
What a pleasure it was to share Kristin and John's Wedding recently! It was a beautiful day at the Aldridge Gardens and it must have been fate because after the exact moment they recited their vows, the geese flew and sang a joyful noise as if saying "Congratulations!"!!! What awesome timing and we captured some pics of that spectacular moment!!
Enjoy....
Allison and John Paul
WOW- What a trooper this couple was! We met Saturday afternoon at the awesome campus of Briarwood Presbyterian Church and had some really nice Engagement pictures taken.We braved the cold, the rain-shot outside and inside to gain some special moments-both of beauty and emotion.We look forward to sharing your special day in December!!!
Felisha and Mario's Family
What a beautiful day in the neighborhood...
It was really great to meet up with Felisha, Mario and their kiddos for a great shoot at the botanical gardens. It was a gorgeous afternoon and the kids enjoyed running around and playing. We got some great pics even though younger ones can tend to be a challenge!!! Sometimes candids get all the attention.
Melissa's Bridal

Hello Everyone-
I had the pleasure of meeting up with Melissa and her mom for a Bridal Portrait at the Botanical Gardens- We had a lovely time and had many many nice areas to shoot pics. We chose the Rose Garden, Japanese Garden and Southern Living Garden as highlight areas. These are a few of the compositions. Beautiful...
Holly and Andrew....
Holly and her new husband Andrew met me at the Botanical Gardens for a holiday portrait session. I enjoyed working with them and their Christmas colored outfits compliment their pictures as well. Although it was cold and rainy- we managed to grab some great shots.Thanks and Enjoy!!
