2012 Weddings

Here is a quick recap of some of my weddings from 2012.

What a wonderful year full of new friends, new experiences, even a challenge with photographing during Sandy...

But you'll see how full of love and laughter the year was for me- 

Here's to 2013!

Amanda and Kevin- a small Shoals Club wedding with a lot of heart

Riley and Calane- one of the best experiences of my wedding career.  There was MAGIC between them.

Anne and Jay- there were only a couple of witnesses- but there was a LOT of love- I love her mom's reaction in the second photo!

 Brittany and Jonathan - I love love love this gown!

 Magan and Dan-    a moment of laughter and excitement as her mom puts on her veil

Erin and Chilly... I mean Jay...

                                                                              

                                                                         

MH and Matt- a family that is so close to my heart...  Love you guys!

Elizabeth and Barrow- 

A wedding that was in my home church and old stomping grounds. It meant so much to be a part of this day...

 thanks for the 10 spot I borrowed!  I owe ya!

 

 

Kelly and Josh- I love a girl who knows just what she wants and goes for it. This is one lucky man!

                                                                         


                                         

Lauren and Mike- an epic day on Figure Eight with an amazing amount of fun -

A stolen moment from Kim and Matt's wedding. This was the last dance. This one makes my heart smile.

 Lindsey and  Kyle's wedding/cane with an uninvited Sandy. Despite it all, they never EVER stopped smiling, joking or laughing. You would never know that it wasn't just another sunny day from their happiness.

Ironically, Lindsey bought this card weeks before the wedding :)

 Michelle and Preston...

This moment was right after they came out of the chapel- both were in tears!

Megan and Tom-

Megan's father shared in a toast that Tom asked him for her hand in marriage unknowingly in the same room that Megan's father had asked for her mother's hand many years ago...

 her mom's reaction

Virginia and Mike- I loved that her shoes matched her girls dresses- and flowers!  This was one of my most relaxed brides ever.  I loved being a part of this day-

Erin and Jay were married on Bald Head Island this summer-

Bald Head Island Wedding Photographer/Megan and Tom

Megan and Tom were married in June on Bald Head Island-

You may recognize her from her acting and from appearance in a few commercials and movies including the Folgers commercial where the daughter tells her dad she is engaged... Which was similar to how Tom asked for Megan's hand.

 Tom asked her father in very room where Megan's dad had asked for her mother's hand in marriage years before.  Her father didn't disclose this until his thoughtful toast at the reception. There is a photograph of Megan, with tears in her eyes, looking at Tom while her father toasted with the story.

She and Tom planned an around the world journey and embarked a few months before the wedding- thus having a travel theme for the wedding. There were maps and a beautiful old atlas that were a part of their design.

There were thoughtful details contributed by both families

Her mother made all of the paper goods- invitations, napkin holders, menus, seating chart and welcome bags ( she is an art teacher).

Tom's mother and father contributed wine to be opened upon their first anniversary, their 5th, 10th and 20th anniversaries. 

This was a wedding I was thankful to be a part of!
And many thanks to vendors who created the day that Megan dreamed of- Kim Fisher Designs

  Our mother's hands, our husband's hands, our friend's hands- they are more meaningful as time goes on...
