The first half of wedding season has passed and it’s been crazy! I’m waiting to blog a whole boatload of weddings until my new website is up and running (soon!), but in the meantime I’m excited to show you all Rachel and Jesse’s wedding that took place in Carillon Beach. This sweet Kentucky couple are both school teachers and would both be exactly the kind of teacher I would be proud to have in my child’s class. They chose Cari Degregorio for their floral design, which I must say, was complete eye-candy. The ladies from Elegance helped pull everything together and Cakes By Tanis provided their wedding cake. The wonderful food was catered through Dine By Design. It was a beautiful day that I’m sure Rachel and Jesse’s families were so happy to be a part of.

Sheena: Beautiful. Perfect wedding. :)

Rachel: LOVE LOVE LOVE the pictures!!! Candice and Sheena, you did an amazing job! They are just breath taking! Thank you a thousand times over for capturing the most beautiful day!

Penned & Pretty: loving this wedding! the colors are gorgeous!

Sara and Kris were married at the Seaside Chapel amongst their closest friends and family. Sara’s hair and makeup (which looked stunning!) was done by Jessica of Make Me Blush. With help from Shelby Peaden, Sara planned a beautiful reception at Draper Lake following the ceremony. The amazing floating dock hosted their cocktail hour and the dinner reception was nearby on the butterfly green under a tent filled with beautiful flowers and wonderful food by Celestine’s Special Occasions. Sara and Kris added some cute touches like the personalized t-shirts that they gave each guest with a special Peanuts comic on the back and a midnight snack of donut holes and little milk shooters! The kids table with children’s meals in beach pails and a stockpile of art supplies and bubbles was a huge hit. Everyone had a great time celebrating and I’m honored that they chose me to photograph their wedding. Congrats to you both!

Katie and Josh are set to marry next May in Santa Rosa Beach at Bentley’s on the Bay. Katie has such cute style that I can’t wait to see what she comes up with for the wedding. Coming from the Atlanta area, this duo seemed perfect for an engagement session in Seaside and I think it turned out fabulous. May 2011 is going to be another really busy month around these parts and it’s going to be here in the blink of an eye!

Ashley Daniell: Gorgeous!

Jessica Lynn: cuuuute. love her dress too!

ellen dillashaw: Beautiful! I am so happy for you.

Wow… the light on the beach this particular evening was so beautiful. Anna and Chad came from the Atlanta area for their annual family vacation to the area and we spent a little time in Rosemary and Inlet beach photographing them in preparation for their upcoming September, Seagrove wedding. Gorgeous couple in love, great light, perfect location, what more can you ask for?

erica: very cute couple that is lucky to have you for their photographer.. those are beautiful!

Laura and Josh were married in a beautiful destination ceremony at the lovely Bentley’s on the Bay. I just loved the soft white and light pink colors along with a touch of feathers that Cari Degregorio put together for Laura’s floral designs. And oh my… those hydrangea bouquets… I’ve never seen anything like them! They were so perfect, full, and white. A Bride’s Ride helped Laura and Josh find the perfect getaway car. This antique Packard has the sweetest owner/driver and he takes great care of his sweet ride. Laura and Josh’s 65 guests dined on yummy food from Sugarcane Catering (everyone loves the tuna by the way <wink>)and treated to a wedding cake from Confections on the Coast. For a little fun, the couple provided custom printed sunglasses for the guests to wear during the reception. The entire day was wonderful and I couldn’t ask for a sweeter couple. birmingham_wedding_photography

Scarlett and Matt were married at Bentley’s on the Bay in a very beautiful, intimate ceremony witnessed by eight of their closest family members. Following the ceremony the celebration expanded to include lots of friends and family from all over the states. Scarlett chose a color palette of purples and Celestine’s Special Occasions helped bring it to life! They put together a lounge area under the porch and carried the theme throughout the tables inside and out. Fatty Patty’s designed the brides white butter cream cake and the grooms chocolate Crimson Tide cake. With a little bit of time to spare between festivities, Scarlett, Matt, and I took a quick trip over into Grayton Beach State Park for some special photos of the newly married couple.

Best wishes to you Scarlett and Matt and thank you for trusting me with this special part of your day!birmingham_wedding_photographer

You may remember Devon and Sean from their engagement session last November. Well their big day went off without a hitch a few weeks ago! A lovely beach house, Gulf Paradise was the setting for their entire event. After the destination beach ceremony, their guests enjoyed tasty food from The Culinary Gallery, dancing, and a yummy cake baked by Heidi at Bake My Day! The small touches were perfect… birdseed hearts hanging from a little tree in the entry way served as favors. The guests each collected a seashell, made a wish, and tossed it into the Gulf for Devon and Sean. Devon made the cute little cake topper birds nest and framed photographs of the married couples going back generations in their family were placed on the shelves and mantles of the house. The whole day was beautiful and had so many special touches that embodied their personalities. Congratulations Devon and Sean!

Keri and Chad are such a unique couple. Love at first sight probably describes it as these two have had a short courtship and knew immediately they would be together forever!
Keri is such a southern beauty with her amazing smile and beautiful grace. Chad seems so gentle and quiet that he balances Keri’s bouncy personality. They will be married in just a few short weeks at the Hilton Sandestin Beach.

Here’s another engagement session for all my loyal blog stalkers ;)

Teresa and Craig will be getting married in just a little over 2 weeks!! Congrats to them and I’m thrilled to have been able to get to know them before the wedding by doing this session with them. The wind was pretty fierce out there on the beach but we all toughed it out and I think it worked out beautifully. See you VERY soon Teresa and Craig!!

Stephanie Osborne: Love the photo of them by the little surf shack... I totally miss the beach. Wanna switch places for a week, I will shoot your beach engagements and you can tackle a few of our mountain engagements?

I just love this set! Kristen and Derrick are an adorable couple from Kentucky. They will be getting married here in June and the wedding just can’t get here soon enough! I think it’s easy to tell from the photos that these two have really awesome chemistry and obviously have a lot of fun together…
