Liz + BJ Get Hitched!

church : St Hugo Chapel

reception : Roostertail

band : Newsmaker

cake : Pastry Palace

photo booth : ShutterBooth

(Thank goodness they were available after a photo booth disaster!)

Liz + BJ had a pretty cold and semi wet day to contend with. But they were troopers! Liz couldn’t be any easier to photograph - she is stunning! The church was gorgeous - I love stone walls. Afterwards we headed to downtown Birmingham for some posed shot fun, but the cold and threatening rain packed us up early. Still, we got some great stuff! The Roostertail was lit all over by purple and blue lights and it looked wonderful. The details that Liz + BJ put into their wedding was astonishing. They really thought of everything and it showed.

Liz lookin’ good:

Super rad staircase at St. Hugo:

Isn’t this place gorgeous!?:

Yummy red fall leaves = best background ever:

There is something about this that I can’t get enough of:

Maybe my fav. They are SO cute together:

Liz is too adorable for words in this shot (and I love the glowing colors in the background):

Their guests had these confetti spraying guns during their first dance that made for some really fun shots!:

Um. I really don’t know. But wow, huh? All I do know is that BJ made 5 Ghost Busters costumes for Halloween one year and then this happened:

OK. This deserves it’s own blog post and will probably get it. The candy buffet was the most amazing candy buffet I have ever seen, and I see A LOT of candy buffets:

Thanks to the candy buffet: rings on wax lips:

Kudos to the candy buffet again: ring in personalized candy holding pill bottle (seriously the coolest wedding detail ever) ETA: Ive gotten some questions already about these pill bottles and why they were used. Answer: Liz is a pharmacist!

Dana + Jon Got Married!

ceremony + reception : Pine Knob Carriage House

cake : Elite Sweets

DJ : J&J Sound Entertainment

florist : The Parsonage

We have been looking forward to this for quite a while! Sometimes as photographers we get the opportunity to work with people that we love spending time with. Dana and Jon are one of those couples. Not afraid to do things a little differently, the ceremony and reception were refreshingly unique. The Parsonage florist did an amazing job bringing in the outdoors to the Carriage House. I love the use of sticks and twigs in weddings!

Dana getting ready:

Jon gets ready alllllll the way across town:

Dana got a tattoo of their wedding date in roman numerals. How cool is that!?:

Posed images at Pine Knob. All the posed shots were done before the ceremony:

Such a beautiful sky:

I adore this shot:

This tree had leaves the color of the wedding. It was perfect!:

Dana and her dad wait to walk down the aisle:

Ceremony inside the pavilion:

Dana is short. Jon is tall. He picked her during their first kiss:

Again, short plus tall. Jon knelt down to dance with Dana during their first dance!:

And then swung her all around:

Rings in personalized M&M’s!:

“The Ecomony Sucks” Collection

We have unveiled a new wedding collection to help a few lucky couples who, due to the craptastic economy, otherwise would not have been able to afford to work with us!

We have met with a few couples lately that we absolutely loved, wanted to work with and get to know better - but our current collections were out of their budget due to the sacrifices we all have been having to make. We don’t want anymore fantastic couples to walk away due to this current situation!

Now, you can have us at your wedding with the basic collection for $3200.00 and worry about the rest when you can.

This collection still includes both Nate and I at your wedding for 8 hours, a full res DVD of files and 90 days of online proofing. The things it does not include are an engagement session, proof magazine and Image Book. These are all things that could be added later however.

We will be accepting only 5 of these collections for the 2009 wedding season.

This is a big deal. Please pass on the info to your friends, coworkers and families. Also, if your a member of an online wedding board, we’d love for you to spread the news there as well.
