HAPPY HALLOWEEN

We recently did a "Trash the Dress" session with Stephani Kimbrough-Gunderson at her property in Richland, GA. She has all kinds of neat areas on her property to photograph. Be sure to check out her images in our Wedding Gallery. From the main website http://www.jehedges.com/, click on View Images, then click on Weddings, then click on the link for the "Wedding Gallery". Scroll down until you find Stephani's name. We got lots of awesome images of her. She's so gorgeous and makes our job easy!

This is one of the images we took in her family cemetery. We think it makes an awesome Halloween greeting... enjoy! Happy Halloween and be safe!

Heather and Bret

We've known Heather for a while. In 2005, I introduced Heather's sister, Celeste, to Julie. Julie photographed Celeste's wedding in 2006. We were absolutely thrilled when Heather chose us for her big day!

Heather and Bret were married at Southside Baptist Church in Greenville, AL on October 4th. Southside Baptist is a very nice, classic looking church. Heather chose minimal floral decorations for the sanctuary, because it was pretty enough with out a bunch of fuss! It just so happened, that it was the hottest day of the week, but the weather was clear and sunny, and of course, Heather was beautiful! Her dress was intricate, yet simple--and perfect on her. The bridesmaids wore a pretty "fall" red color, and carried pale green and pink roses.

The bridal party and families were all excited for Heather and Bret. Even the littlest members of the wedding party! They were so excited, it was hard to even keep them still for the pictures! :) We tried, but they were more interested in the puzzles Julie brought for them then standing still! When it was time to walk down the aisle, they were ready, though!

Heather and Bret's reception was held in the Fellowship Hall of the church. Again, the decorations were pretty and simple, but perfect for the occasion! On a sentimental note, Heather and Bret displayed a beautiful picture of Heather's cousin Beth, whom they lost to cancer earlier this year. The family wanted to make sure that she was part of the day, even though she wasn't there physically.

Heather and Bret were headed out the very next morning at 4:00 A.M. for their honeymoon! They had to scoot out of their reception a little early to make sure they could wake up in time to make their flight!

It was a perfect day for a wedding, and I'm glad Heather chose us to be a part of it! Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Beasley! Here's to many years of happiness!

April and Blake

We photographed April Hall and Blake Durham's wedding out at Oakhurst on September 13th. April and Blake are a beautiful, fun couple that were a pleasure to work with! Even though it was one of the hottest days of the summer, it was a crystal clear sunny day and a pretty day for a wedding. Blake and April were so anxious to see each other, that when they finally did, it was a sweet emotional moment.

The wedding party and the families were very fun to work with. Everyone was energetic and ready to celebrate Blake and April's big day. Perhaps the most precious members of the wedding party were their flower girls, Emma and Britton. Two of the cutest little girls you've ever seen! To show you all how small the world is...we photographed April once already--in Lindsay Coker-Anderson's wedding last year. Lindsay just happened to be one of April's bridesmaids! AND...both April and Lindsay are friends with Shelly Butler, who we ALSO photographed in may this year. We're so lucky to be able to work with our clients multiple times!

Once again, the bride's fashion sense amazed us. She had a very cute color scheme, pink and black. Her flowers were bright pink roses and the bridesmaids dresses were very simple, elegant black dresses. April's dress was also simple and elegant, but she was absolutely stunning!

The reception was super fun! Everyone had a great time dancing to to tunes of our friend, DJ Benji Shephard. Also...at the reception, we witnessed the best garter-toss battle ever! Those boys were running each other over to get to that garter! The Durham's had the coolest wedding favors...pink and black match books AND koozies! Both items were a big hit with the guests!

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Durham! We wish you a future full of laughter and love!

You're BOOOOO-tiful!!!
