Will and Brooke Portraits

I was super-excited when Brooke emailed to ask if I would photograph their wedding anniversary portraits. I have known Brooke for about three years and as it would have it, Brooke is the reason I got into the business. Last year, Brooke asked if I would photograph her brother's wedding and as luck would have it, I fell in love with portrait and wedding photography. So I owe it all to these two for getting me started.

Will and Brooke have been married for five years and are one of the sweetest couples you will ever meet. If you spend any time with the two of them, you can see that the are perfect for each other.....and I mean perfect. The love you see in these portraits is real and hard to find but they are one of the lucky ones. I am thrilled to say that they recently announced that Brooke is pregnant. Last Saturday, we met at the beautiful Callaway Gardens Resort in Pine Mountain and here are some of my favorite shots.

How cute are they?

I fell in love with this tree and thought is was a perfect compliment to this image.

Our last stop was in the butterfly center and it was brief. See Brooke has naturally curly hair and she straightened it for the shoot and the butterfly center is kept warm and humid for the butterflies. The humidity plays havoc with Brooke's hair. I just love how you can see the humidity in this next and final shot.

Let me know what is your favorite shot! Hope you enjoyed!!

Elizabeth & Frederick / Married

The better part of this summer has proved to be a hot and humid one; however, Saturday September 4th was not one of them. It was a gorgeous and sunny day AND a great day for a wedding.

The setting was the beautiful grounds of Pine Mountain Club Chalet Resort and a perfect location to commence the marriage of Fredrick and Elizabeth. These two are from Waverly Hall, a country town in Harris County, and when they began planning their wedding, they knew they wanted the location to reflect where they grew up and who they are.

With the help of Pine Mountain Club Chalet's wedding planner, Amanda Mitten, and a host of vendors, the wedding went beautifully.

Vendors:

Planner: Amanda Mitten

Venue: Pine Mountain Club Chalet Resort

Florist: Details of the Gardens

Cake: Wedding Cakes by Heather

Caterer: Patricia Huff (706)617-2964

Saturday was kick off for college football and during our final planning session, Elizabeth said the men would be watching the game so she wanted to be sure that we got photos of the party.

Frederick sent over a gift for his bride before the wedding.

Before the wedding, the flower girls were dancing and the next two pictures were just precious.

The next two images are my favorite images of the day.

Finally, man and wife....

Thank you, Frederick and Elizabeth, for allowing me to a part of your day!
