Melissa and Mike Engagements

It was another cloudy and wintry day here in Pensacola....luckily we had these two to heat things up. Melissa and Mike are getting married here in Pensacola in two weeks, so we braved the weather and got some great shots of them today. How cute are these two?

My First Baby Shower!

I was the guest of honor this past weekend at a baby shower. This shower was for all of our family and friends in Mobile, AL. (Wes and I are both from Mobile) There were LOTS of people there and LOTS of presents to be opened. It was a great shower and was hosted by my 3 bridesmaids - my sister, Margie; Wes' sister, Sara; and my friend from HS, Karla. The food was great and the company was even better. I was so excited to see some people that I haven't seen in a while. Wesley was the "hired" photographer for the event so we got some good shots I'd like to share with you all. Now, I use the word "hired" loosely....he's not really getting paid. I was so overwhelmed by all the wonderful gifts! I loved everything, but I know I didn't show it as much I should have....it was just so overwhelming!

This is me with my sister and sister in law. They both wore pink for the occasion!


This was the yummy cake. It's from the same place that we got our wedding cake!


Check out all the gifts behind me. There were SO many...you can't even see them all in the photo. We are so lucky to have so many friends and family that love us!


This is the beginning of the gift-opening. As you can see, I had lots of help. That's Abby in the front and Andrew behind me.


I don't know why I am making a funny face, but how cute is this dress??!?!! Wes' mom gave us that. I bet you will be seeing Baby Avery in that as soon as she can wear it.


This is one of my DEAREST friends, Stephanie. We have been good friends since the 6th grade....OMG - that is TWENTY years!!!!! I love you Steph!


These lovely ladies are the reason I am here! This is my grandmother and my mom. Aren't they cute? Have I ever told you that my mom and I won a mother/daughter look-a-like contest about 14 years ago?? I get my curly hair and my annoying personality from my dad. All the other genes are straight from my mom.

Fresh Changes

Hello to all of our blogstalkers.... We are in the middle of some much needed new graphics, music, and fresh changes here on the websites. It's that time of year again to change the oil and give the site a wax before the busy wedding season that is quickly approaching. We have a lot coming up with our first born due in less than 10 weeks, a trip to Hawaii for a wedding in June, and a new full time employee starting soon. Stay tuned for all of the new changes, and please pardon the dust if it gets a little messy before we are finished!

If anyone wants an e-mail or a phone call as soon as Rae has the baby, please e-mail us your e-mail address or phone number so that we can add you to the notification list. Of course there will be photos posted on here as soon as I can get them!

Rebekah and Bob Engagements

We spent Saturday morning in Mobile at Bellingrath Gardens with Rebekah and Bob. It started raining as soon as we got there, but we dodged in and out of the cover long enough to get these beautiful photos. This was our first engagement session at Bellingrath and it is definitely the best place we have been for engagement photos. I would love to do some bridals here soon with the Spring Season fastly approaching if anyone is interested hint hint ;-) We are thrilled at how these turned out......Enjoy!

Jeremy and Lisa Engagements

We spent the day around downtown Pensacola with Jeremy and Lisa. They are getting married at the Pensacola Yacht Club next weekend and adorable together. We had a lot of fun and cannot wait until the wedding......

Baby Natalie

Wes & I were so honored to take more photos of Baby Natalie today. She is 9 days old and so tiny. She is absolutely precious and I am so excited to be taking her photos for the next year! Natalie LOVES to be held and she seemed perfectly content on her daddy's arm. Enjoy!!

Joanne & Brian

Today we had the pleasure of shooting Joanne and Brian's wedding with the "famous Patsy Brown" of A Thousand Words Photography. Since she is claiming to be the grandmother (don't ask) of our soon to be baby girl, she came along to help me keep Rae off of her feet as much as possible. She got some FANTASTIC shots herself which you can see on her blog........



The ceremony was held at St. Anne's Catholic Church in Gulf Breeze followed by the reception at Heritage Hall at Seville Quarter which is managed by the wonderful Pam Rodgerson!







The handsome groom.......



The bride got excited about her photos!











The decor at Heritage Hall is always beautiful.....





The theme was winter wonderland and the cake was was VERY cute!
