Dominique + Ryan : Magnolia Hotel Wedding
Tuesday, August 31, 2010
This wedding post has been way overdue...I actually shot Dominique and Ryan's wedding last November!  I've actually become good friends with them since then, Ryan recommended the jeweler for my wife's wedding ring (who was excellent btw).  They had their reception at the Magnolia Hotel and Shannon from Rendezvous Events coordinated the day.

I'll be digging up a few more weddings from late last year and early this year to blog as well.  For now, check these out!

Kim and Brenton got married at Amber Springs last month.  You might remember them from their engagement session that I photographed earlier this year.  They were all smiles the entire day which made for amazing photos...I really enjoyed photographing them!

Big thanks to Matthew McMichael for helping me out at the last minute on this wedding.  It was fun working with you again as always!

Ryann + Damen
Thursday, May 20, 2010
Ryann and Damen got married this past rainy Saturday!  There are a ton of images I'd like to show from their wedding but I'll start with this one.  It had been raining all day and after we spent about 45 minutes doing portraits, the sun finally decided to come out.  So I had to take them out again and I'm glad I did.  I was able to capture one of my favorite wedding images of all time.
