Destine Sudano & Nick Griffith had one a windy day photo shoot April 19, 2009 on Morris Avenue, downtown Birmingham, AL. Nevertheless, their photos turned out great, with fun, carefree, candid shots. We even have them displayed in our new Homewood gallery location too! Their big day is just around the corner – October 3, 2009 at Mountain View Ballroom and Gardens. I know it will be just as much fun and we are really looking forward to their wedding!

Jim had the honor of photographing Julie & Brett Brown’s wedding on June 6, 2009.
Read below about her special day. Also a big thanks to all of their wedding vendors who helped to make their day so special.

Our wedding took place at the home of the groom’s father in Daphne, AL on the bay. We were so fortunate to have a beautiful, sunny June day with a calm bay. Our ceremony was poolside on the garden patio with all the colorful flowers surrounding the white colonnade where we exchanged our vows. The reception followed immediately with dinner on the pool deck and around the pool house. Our guests, including many small children, seemed to enjoy mingling (or playing) on the golf green and walking by the bay and down the pier. We finally departed the festivities to a night at the Grand Hotel at Point Clear before enjoying our honeymoon vacation at the Esperanza Resort in Cabo San Lucas. We got the wedding we had hoped for….a beautiful outdoor setting with a fun and casual surrounding!
