Spring is a season of life and joy marked by nature’s vibrant colors and fresh blooms. It is a time when cherry blossoms burst forth, the weather is warmer, and everything feels more alive. For Gracie and Nick, this is the setting we used for their engagement photos at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. From the moment we met them for ice cream, it was evident that Gracie and Nick share a bond that is as strong as it is playful. Their love story is one of friendship turned romance, which gives them steady confidence and a solid foundation that will serve them well in marriage. They are so kind ..read more

It’s time for our favorite blog of the year: our favorite engagement and wedding photos from 2023! This year was monumental for us in so many ways, from adding a wedding video as a new service (YAY!!) to starting a massive rebrand that will be coming soon. It felt like the year that our business took things up another notch, and it was wild to watch it grow up with us. We served 23 couples on their wedding day, including 6 wedding videos, as well as dozens of other shoots, from proposals to engagement sessions. There were so many favorite moments from 2023 that this blog is definitely a beast ..read more

Courtney and Katie met years ago in a young professional’s small group. Warm nights were spent in Courtney’s Birmingham apartment, getting to know the wonderful women in the group. That’s where Katie remembers hearing single Courtney talk about one day how she hoped she would be able to get married in a darling white chapel (hint: the Lord heard those dreams, and Howe Farms was the ultimate answer to them). As time went on, Courtney followed her calling to Cincinnati, where she met Alex in another smallgroup. Not long after, Courtney came to visit her friends and family here in Alabama. As she ..read more

Macy stood behind Kevin counting down the moments until he would turn around and see her for the first time in her wedding dress. So many moments had led up to this epic one on the gorgeous balcony of TJ Towers. He was crying before she even tapped his shoulder to turn around and began to sob happy, thankful tears as he beheld his bride on their wedding day. His reaction was so pure and honest, and it was a special moment for them. Their whole wedding day at TJ Towers was full of raw emotion and excitement! So many loving tears were shed and laughs shared. You’ll see it throughout their photos ..read more

Katie + Brandon met with us over ice cream, and it took all of a couple of minutes for us to love them! They’re incredible! Kind, caring, and committed, we could gush on and on about them. After their engagement session, those initial impressions of them have solidified. If you know them, you love them. The way they met is hilarious and so cute, but we couldn’t possibly do it justice, so we’ll let Katie tell the story for us: “We met while we were both servers at Char Bar about 4 years ago. He had this long, shaggy hair and was so quiet. I, on the other hand, am loud and silly and love to make ..read more

Kadi + Bailey showed up to their engagement session understandably nervous. Being in front of the camera is not natural for most people, so it can be understandably nerve-wracking. We encouraged them that the feeling was normal and that we would ensure they felt comfortable and beautiful in front of the camera. It did not take very long into the session for them to relax and start having a fun time together! Just wait until you see the smile on Kadi’s face in so many of the photos! They ended up having a great time, which made us, as photographers, unbelievably happy. There is nothing sweeter ..read more

Soft pink whisps of grass swayed in the breeze and seemed to envelop Cameron and Samantha in their velvety beauty. Every spring and fall for 2 short weeks, this grass blooms at Railroad Park. It’s elusive in its timing and something that is extra special to be able to have in a session. So, when they started planning their shoot, we knew that was the perfect spot! Getting to meet them in person finally was amazing. Every time they’d share a little about who they are and what they do, we were surprised! They’re so interesting and hide it well under their gentle, quiet demeanors. Don’t let that ..read more

Alex and Jared had a stunning June wedding at Fiddler’s Green. With soft blues, pinks, and other fun Summer colors, it was as bright and vibrant as the season itself. Getting to do both their wedding photography and videography was such an honor. For their wedding video, they wanted it to feel like them: traditional, classic, and sweet. They are self-described old souls and love their simple, gentle Southern roots. There is also a touch of goofiness in them that makes them so fun to be around, and we adore them for it! Alex’s personality is so adorable and fun, and Jared balances her out so w ..read more
