Congrats, Matt & Bree!

Matt & Bree were a fun couple to work with! We started at Diana's Salon in Hoover with all the girls getting hair & makeup done then went over to the Chapel in the Pines Presbyterian Church. After a beautiful ceremony we all took the party bus (yes, I rode too!) over to the Marriott Hotel on Hwy 280 for a fab reception hosted by Feel the Beat Entertainment! It was also fun to be working with our friends at Rush Videos again who were doing their videography. Here are some of my favorite photos from the day, hope you enjoy!!

We have renewed all Wedding galleries for another year in the hopes that you can all help us donate to them. From now until the end of July we will donate all profits from print sales to Greg and his family. Please help us if you can by placing an order however big or small, everything will help!
