Last month Charles and I took a drive over to Plaquemine, Louisiana to photograph the picturesque southern wedding of Reily & Doug. The ceremony was held in the garden beside the family home that was once occupied by Reily's grandparents. Reily spent many weekends in her childhood attending family weddings and celebrations at this former plantation, dreaming of the day she would have her own 'backyard' wedding...



As a lover of vintage books, this might go down as my favorite shoe shot - ever.

I really loved the attire for the guys - perfect for an afternoon ceremony.

BUT stick with us because we have been working away on some amazing shoots and those will find there way to the blog shortly. We'll also have a few surprises hitting the blog over the next two weeks - so keep checking in!

posted by Charles - Thursday, May 6, 2010  |  Bridals, Newlyweds, Just A Peek

Here it is - our first bridal session featuring a bride AND a groom. We love it! Kati scheduled her session eons ago and then called us a few days before to see if Troy could maybe tag along for a few photos. "ummm... heck ya!" What a fantastic way to arrange for some extra 'couple shots' in the wedding attire - without the stress of a wedding day. Now of course, this concept of a bride and groom session is not new (see some of our Newlywed sessions!) - but scheduling this prior to the big day was a (welcome) first for us. Now, if only we could think up a good name for our (not-so-newlywed, yet more than a bridal) session...
