Julie Beck & Brian Fallis - WEDDING

On the bright spring day of April 3rd, 2010, Julie and Brian joined their lives together. We were honored to begin the day with the beautiful couple at Callaway Gardens Discovery Center. The Dogwood trees were blowing their white flowers in the wind making a gorgeous backdrop, as if a late snowfall had arrived.

The bride was wearing a beaded strapless gown that complemented the cathedral train that followed behind her. She held onto a spring selection of pink, purple, and yellow florals, designed by Details of the Garden. The groom was decked out in his Dress Blues to honor his duty in the military. Inside the Discovery Center, the flowers overflowed from ceiling to floor with all of the bright colors coming together to achieve an incredible visual feast.

After our time at the Discover Center, we moved to the Chapel where close friends and family awaited their arrival. As Julie walked down the aisle to Brian, the light glistened through the stained glass window. After saying the most important words in life, “I DO”, the celebration moved to the Lodge where all of the guests enjoyed a fun filled night of dinner and dancing.

The couple are currently residing in Italy, where Brian is stationed. Sounds like an ongoing honeymoon if you ask us! Congratulations Brian & Julie! May your marriage always be "picture perfect"!

Kelly Englebert & Jeff English - WEDDING



March 27th 2010 the sound of love birds filled the air of the Rankin Gardens and Atrium. Through the Chandelier room, the bride and groom could overlook the historical street of Broadway, while we caught moments of their love blossoming. The dark wood floors throughout the building made Kelly’s white dress stand out, as if she were glowing. Kelly wore a sweetheart neckline beaded front with the back adorned with lace lying over the train. Her bouquet of large yellow sunflowers with hints of pink and green were the perfect accessory to an already beautiful bride. Green came into play with Jeff wearing a nice traditional tux with green vest and bow tie.

After the ceremony they moved into the atrium with their close friends and immediate family. Rankin Quarter Deli provided the catering of fruits and finger foods while guests and the couple danced to music with DJ Tim English. The cake was covered in flowers with lime green and pink decorative details. The groom's favorite cookie, the OREO®, was in large detail in the groom's cake. While the couple enjoyed mingling with their guests, close friends decorated the getaway car with Saran Wrap™. We always enjoy photographing a couple so passionate and in love, it’s what makes our job AWESOME!

Lori Starling & Jan Greeff - WEDDING!



On an early spring day downtown at the Rivermill Event Centre we met up with Jan and Lori. This was not the first time as we were given the honor of photographing the couple. We also captured Lori’s bridal session and the couple’s engagement photos. Lori was an absolutely stunning bride. Her bouquet, provided by Designs by Mayumi, was brilliantly put together for her to hold. It was made with over three dozen red roses! The red continued onto Lori‘s fabulous shoes, the chic 3 ½ inch heel ruby red Stuart Weitzman high heels. They were adorned with a large bow upon the open toe sling back.

The fun continued down at the reception. The wedding party consisted of 7 bridesmaids and 6 groomsmen. The bridesmaids wore knee length dresses carrying 3 calla lilies in their bouquets. The wedding party choreographed a dance to “I’ve got a feeling” by Black Eyes Peas and performed the dance as they were introduced into the reception. The dancing certainly didn’t end there! Lori danced with her father to Rascal Flatts “My Wish,” while Jan danced with his mother to Armstrong’s “What a wonderful world”. During the reception, our photo booth - JE Hedges Photo Booths, had a line waiting for the guests to jump in an experience the new trend of photo strip wedding party favors and entertainment at receptions. Their wedding was a momentous occasion for everyone in Jan’s family and friends, who traveled all the way from South Africa! This wedding will be one that people will never forget! Congratulations Lori & Jan! May your beautiful smiles lead to a long and beautiful marriage!
