James is Graduating...wait that can't be right!

Only 11 short years ago, I was a Junior at Athens Bible School. There were 6 or 7 of us who had a completely empty period in the day so in true ABS fashion, they just invented a class for us to take and named it "Peer Reading". We went to the various elementary classes and read to the kids and acted out stories, basically just goofed off and played with kids. Well one of my absolute FAVORITE little kindergarteners was a sweet little boy named James. He always wore a black cowboy hat and was just the cutest thing. So, flashforward and that sweet little cowboy has grown up into a sweet big cowboy! Where does the time go? Thanks so much for letting me be a part of it!

Rachael & Spencer

On August 28th it was off to Monte Sano to photograph Rachael & Spencer's wedding. Another sweet couple & family! I really have the best luck with my clients. This family welcomed me like I was one of their own. I had the best time and really felt like I was taking pictures at a friend's wedding. Oh, and the best part? They were the biggest Alabama fans I've ever met. All the guests had shaker's as the bride & groom ran out to the fight song. 

I can't take credit for this beautiful setup. Rachael's good friend had this idea and I completely fell in love with and ran with it!

Whitney & Grant

On August 8th I headed to Rogersville to the Longing for Home Bed  Breakfast to photograph Whitney & Grant's big day. I knew Grant from my old Bible School days although he was quite a bit younger than me. I met Whitney and her sweet family when I did her sister Chelsea's Senior portraits last year. I had such a great time working with this family! They are some of the sweetest people I've ever met. While I was uploading these I realized how many kissing shots I have. I'm just a sucker for the romantic I guess. Here are a few of my favorites from the day:

Kim & Scott

Okay...so I'm a little behind. Or a lot behind actually but I guess its never too late to catch up! On August 1st I had the pleasure of joining Kim and Scott to photograph their beautiful wedding. They were married at one of my favorite locations, the brick church in Mooresville. The downside? It POURED rain. So all of the gorgeous could-have-been outdoor shots were out. Luckily the inside of the church is beautiful as well so we managed anyway!
