Lake Jordan AL Wedding Photography: Mr. & Mrs. Stackhouse

It was a beautiful day on Lake Jordan and each detail had been meticulously planned for this special celebration.  Antiques and mementos filled every tables.  The bride carried a bride’s basket dating from the 1800′s.  Her bridesmaids each received and carried a different silver basket of flowers lovingly arranged by her father.  The bridesmaids were beautiful and attentive.  The groomsmen were fun and cooperative.  Kim and Isaac will be able to hold so many special memories of this very important day in their life together.  And I am so honored to have been a part of this amazing wedding.  Here’s just a small preview of their gallery of images.

Coffee Break

I love taking afternoon coffee breaks in my backyard.  There are countless good memories stored here.  The little house is a playhouse my daddy built for me.  Now the grandchildren enjoy it.  A myriad of precious pets have walked these grounds.  My wonderful children have played and grown up here.  Numerous meaningful conversations with God took place here. Many dreams have been formed here.   I should really set aside the time to do this every day.

A Brief Intermission

I’m totally overwhelmed and stressed over the number of family photos that are sitting in folders on my computer unedited.  So, why not pull out one of my cat and work on it?  My 16-year old rescue, RAM, in his favoite spot.

 

For anyone interested, I used two textures from Florabella and one from Kaleidoscope Light Overlays. Canon 5D Mark II, EF50mm f/1.4 USM, 1/125 sec at f/1.6 ISO 125, off-camera flash.
