Top 9 of 09

noreply@blogger.com (Shelley) — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 16:22:00 +0000

Instead of a top ten, we decided to do things a little differently and go with "top 9 of 09." In no specific order, here are our personal favorites. Thank you to all the families that have chosen us to document one of the biggest days of their lives. We truly love what we do, and hope it reflects in our work.

Rachel & Vance

noreply@blogger.com (Rosjuane) — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 18:10:00 +0000

We shot a wedding this weekend in Helena, Arkansas. It was quite the little road trip :) I (Shelley) celebrated my 31st birthday with the newly wedded Rachel & Vance Kalb. I can honestly say it was really fun. It's always a positive thing to have a super smiley groom, and we met him first. We knew after that that the day was going to go smoothly. Good ol' southern charm goes a long way!

Our bride has a precious nephew, Max, that ended up in a lot of photos. Can you tell why? That cute little rascal is very loved.

Matron of honor, Leslie, with her beautiful sister.

there was a small cake altercation....

First dance as Mr. and Mrs. Kalb

yes, she really does love him that much!

Max cut in on the first dance, haha!

and doesn't every bride need a place to stash her lipgloss?

CONGRATS RACHEL AND VANCE! Thanks for choosing us! We had a blast!

Bradford Wedding

Paige & Tim held their reception in Hot Springs, at Garvan Gardens. It was gorgeous! Beautiful weather, beautiful bride, beautiful surroundings.

The glass chapel is perfect. The light from the day was warm and gorgeous.

They left notecards on every pew, asking guests to write a "memory" or best wishes. They cracked us UP.

Their poolside reception was greatly enjoyed by all their guests.

Enjoying their first dance as a married couple, up on the balcony :)

CONGRATS TO YOU BOTH! Thanks for choosing us to document your day!

Harry & Julianna's Wedding

noreply@blogger.com (Shelley) — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 14:49:00 +0000

Rosjuane and I shot a wedding in Warren, Arkansas Saturday at First Baptist Church. It was the ceremony of Julianna Smith and Harry Yeatman. It was the largest bridal party either of us had ever seen. You see, Miss Julianna had NINE bridesmaids, and TEN honorary bridesmaids! Whew. That's a LOT of friends.

Julianna had exsquisite bridals displayed throughout the church, and I loved them all. She has gorgeous red hair, and the stained glass windows in the church made for a beautiful backdrop for them.

They had a memorial table, complete with photos of loved ones that had passed away. Pictured above is the bride's late father, Mark Smith.

All the bright flowers and summery details made for one gorgeous ceremony.

Wedding cake adn grooms cake (pictured below in duck theme) was made by Tiffany, of Piece of Cake.

The reception was held at the Warren Country Club, complete with a live band and dancing.

Lead soloist was Kris Allen's brother :) Yes, the one that won American Idol.

Yes, the bride WAS that happy all day long.

We were glad the bridesmaids were a blast!

playing on the phone...busted!

Forgive that these photos have no specific order.... We were anxious to share them and just threw them together!

The entire wedding party!

Newton/Avant Wedding

noreply@blogger.com (Rosjuane) — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 15:27:00 +0000

We travelled to the big ol' town of Hampton to shoot the Avant/Newton wedding last weekend. After some confusion on the directions from our lovely bride, haha, we made it there in plenty of time. We expected a small, country church, but ended up arriving to a beautiful sanctuary.

She had lots of cute engagement photos, courtesy of Rosjuane.

They guys were really fun to work with!

Our bride was a little sneaky, checking out her groom...

The first glance moment was priceless!

Shawnee wore a "borrowed" family ring that was generations old. This is when she received it :)

Gotta love a country girl.....

The cake cutting was pretty interesting....

Only in Arkansas, huh!

CONGRATULATIONS! Thanks for letting us chronicle your special day!

Saturday we had the pleasure of shooting a wedding in Hampton. But before we show the wedding pictures I wanted to finally unveil a few of the bridals. I have done Shawnee's senior pictures, engagments, bridals, and we both did the wedding. I can't wait to carry on the tradition ONE DAY with a baby. She wanted traditional but also wanted some with a "country girl" theme. You will understand later when we show you pictures from the reception!!

Diana Catherine Taylor & David Curtis Sawyer

noreply@blogger.com (Shelley) — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 23:51:00 +0000

As we said earlier, our wedding from last weekend was chosen as the feature story in the High Profile Weddings section of the state paper. Here is that story, below.

By The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

Wedding vows were exchanged by Diana Catherine Taylor and David Curtis Sawyer at 3 p.m. Saturday, June 6, in Calvary Baptist Church with the Rev. Ed Simpson officiating.

The chancel held matching cathedral arrangements of peonies, garden roses, hydrangeas and stargazer lilies. Music was by organist Adam Savacool and soloist Whitney Martin. The bride, given in marriage by her father, wore a strapless A-line gown of ivory matte satin with a sheer silk ivory organza overlay and chapel-length train. The bodice had a sweetheart neckline and a waistline which was embellished with lace and champagne satin ribbon secured by a sparkling brooch. Her two-tier waltz-length veil was ivory with rolled satin edges.

Groomsmen were Jay Murphy of Little Rock, Whit Cocanower of Fayetteville, Robert Dudley of Hot Springs and Andrew Shelor of Rogers. Guests were seated by Daniel Bingaman of Fayetteville and Graham Reaves of Rome, also cousins of the bride.

Guest tables at a reception in the Albert Pike Hotel were covered with apple green linens and cerise lamour runners. They held glass cubes and cylinders with floating stargazer lilies. The ballroom ceiling featured a greenery grid of boxwood garlands accentedwith wedding flowers.

A large glass hurricane vase on the buffet held peonies, garden roses, hydrangeas and bells of Ireland.

The bride graduated magna cum laude from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville in May with bachelor's degrees in political science and international relations. She was named Senior Scholar and to the dean's list and was a vice president of Alpha Omicron Pi. She has interned with Sen. Blanche Lincoln and Rep. Vic Snyder, both D-Ark.

There is no doubt how much he loves her.

If you will look in the very back you can see a lady with a content smile. That is the wedding planner. She's thinking "Another job well done."

Barnes/Hall Wedding; The Allen House, Monticello, Arkansas

noreply@blogger.com (Shelley) — Sun, 26 Apr 2009 16:13:00 +0000

We had a shoot on Saturday with Shelly & Steven; their Allen House wedding!

This is one of our favs!

There are a lot of gorgeous details within this old mansion.

Finishing touches on the beautiful bride! It's always fun to work with brides that are as enjoyable as she was.

The bride designed her own cake, which I think fit her personality very well.

Fun girls and goofy guys, the best kind of people to photograph!

A small cake battle occurred. I am not sure who we would say won it :)

Okay so this isn't really SS Wedding pictures but it's tied to us anyway. I did these engagements last weekend. We will be doing their wedding in June so I figured why not introduce them to the readers. You can see more on my blog.

Bridal Shoot

noreply@blogger.com (Shelley) — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 14:43:00 +0000

Rosjuane and I had a blast doing the bridals at the Old Statehouse last week. Unfortunately, we can't share them yet! It's making us crazy to have to hide them... But it won't be too long before we can; her wedding is in June. Beneath these photos are the kind words we received from the mother of the bride. We are really glad they love them as much as we do!

We just love the pics of Di. I let my Mom go to the site. She was wowing so much that my father couldn't resist and he had planned not to see Di in the dress until the day! "breath taking" "Gorgeous" I think the small priviledged few are definitely wowed.

I think the bench shot with her veil blowing back is awesome. But there are so many others! We are excited for ya'll to shoot the wedding! Don't you love making people so happy. Thanks again for a great day!

Amy

Bridals, anyone?

noreply@blogger.com (Shelley) — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 22:57:00 +0000
