This past Saturday, I had the privilege of photographing Michaela and Nick’s wedding on Michaela’s parents’ beautiful property in Lineville, Alabama. It was one of those days that truly embodies the essence of a fall wedding—crisp air, the warm colors of autumn, and a deep sense of love and community surrounding the couple. Despite the aftermath of the Hurricane Helen that impacted neighboring states, the weather in Lineville gave us a perfect fall day.

As a wedding photographer, my mission is to capture authentic, joyful moments that reflect the genuine, heartfelt moments of your special day. Whether it’s a candid laugh shared between you and your partner or the heartfelt tears of loved ones, these are the moments that will live on in your memories—and your wedding photos. Here’s how I ensure that your wedding album is filled with those genuine, timeless memories.

As a wedding and portrait photographer, I spend a lot of time behind the lens capturing everyone’s special moments. But when it’s my turn to be in front of the camera or just feel my best on the job, I have a few go-to beauty products that I can’t live without. I know how important it is to make sure that your hair and makeup are on point all day long, especially on your wedding day!

Last month, my husband and I celebrated seven years of marriage! In honor of that milestone, I thought it was the perfect time to share our love story. I planned to post this last month, but, well… life happened. We decided to homeschool our kids (which is a whole other blog post for another day!), and I’m still figuring out a routine that works for all of us. But anyway, on to our story!

Planning a wedding is an exciting journey, but finding the perfect wedding photographer to capture your special day can feel overwhelming.
