Rachel + Jeremy=True Love: Day of Wedding

Rachel and Jeremy's wedding day was beautiful!  The day started bright and early with Rachel and her girls getting pampered at Rumors Hair Salon. The wonderful ladies there did fabulous hairstyles and makeup on the bride, mother of the bride and bridesmaids as they enjoyed a relaxing day in the company of friends. There was even an adorable dog at the salon. The wedding ceremony was held on the back patio of the Lebanon Courthouse. The ceremony was beautiful as Rachel and Jeremy pledged their lives to one another on the sun drenched patio. The reception was full of fun as the dj cranked up the tunes. The bride & groom and their friends and family danced the night away.  The food was amazing and delicious and the there was wedding cake and cupcakes galore! The photo booth was a big hit with all the fun props. Rachel and Jeremy left in a shower of sparklers. The wedding was a true testament to the couple's love and was a perfect weekend. I hope you enjoy these photos. And for more on Rachel and Jeremy check out their engagement party and Rachel's bridal shower!

Rachel + Jeremy=True Love: Rehearsal and Rehearsal Dinner

Rachel and Jeremy's wedding weekend was amazing!! I had a great time hanging out with them and shooting their  rehearsal, rehearsal dinner and day of preparations. And I had a fantastic time as a guest at the wedding.Rachel and Jeremy were married at the beautiful Lebanon Courthouse. They had a busy day on Friday getting ready for the wedding. Rachel had so many beautiful and personal details including hand making paisley mints! They had their rehearsal just as the sun was setting. I loved the excitement in the air as they anticipated the real event the next day. Their rehearsal dinner was at a local Mexican restaurant since Mexican food is a favorite of the bride. It was an evening full of lots of happiness, laughter and love!

Here are some photos from Rachel and Jeremy's rehearsal and rehearsal dinner and check back tomorrow for photos from the wedding day!

Ruth and Dax are married!!

Ruth and Dax were so happy and so in love on their wedding day! It was such a perfect day and it was so special to share it with them. I loved so much of the day! The looks on each of their faces when they saw one another for the first time, the look on Ruth's face as she waited to go down the aisle, the kids excitement, and Ruth's big smile the whole day. But one of my favorite photos is of Ruth, her parents, siblings, nieces and nephews. It is quite a large group but what a special family! Josh Lamkin and I enjoyed capturing their special moments. It was a terrific day and I hope you enjoy this glimpse into their big day! Also, make sure to check out my new Facebook page!

Photo of the Day: The Eyes of the Tiger

Today is National Pet Owner's Day so I thought I would celebrate by sharing a photo of one of my two cats. This is Gehrig. He was originally named Tiger when we adopted him from a humane society. We renamed him Gehrig after the New York Yankees first baseman Lou Gehrig. Gehrig was nicknamed the Iron Horse for his streak of consecutive games played that only ended when he became sick with ALS. I have always thought that to be the saddest story and Lou Gehrig is the only thing I have ever liked about the Yankees. When visiting the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY we were allowed inside a restricted area which was where they kept a lot of memorabilia. We were able to see the scrapbooks that Mrs. Gehrig had kept for her husband. It was one of the most amazing things. Here is a photo of my cute little man. Take a moment to check out The Good Shepherd Humane Society and remember when getting a pet it is always better to adopt than buy!
