Shannon & James at Birmingham Botanical Gardens

Last weekend (as I mentioned in a post below), I shot some engagement pictures of Shannon, James and Alec (Shannon's son.) We went to Birmingham Botanical Gardens - sooo beautiful this time of year. I am seriously in love with the red bridge in the Japanese Gardens. It took a while for us to find it, but we finally figured it out.

I will be shooting their wedding in May up in Athens right on the river. Doesn't that sound fabulous? I think it's neat that they are getting married near the river, because they actually met on the lake while both of them were hanging out on boats. They have a boat and are still out on the lake as much as they can be. Alec is a master wakeboarder, of course. But I'm sure they would be impressed to see my own wakeboarding skills. Well, not really....cause I've never actually been. But I bet I would be pretty good at it...ha. I'm pretty excited about the wedding, because they are very relaxed when it comes to pictures and laugh so easily. Those are such great combinations.

So here are a few pictures from their session along with a link to a slideshow at the end. And yes, I probably include too many pictures on the slideshow, but it's hard for me to take them out!!

TODAY'S LAUGH includes a conversation between Reba and me at work sitting in the kitchen eating lunch from Panera.
Stacie: I am really liking these black olives in my salad right now, and I don't usually like olives.
Reba: I don't like green olives, because of that red thing they put in them. Whose bright idea was that anyway?
Stacie: uh...I don't know...God's??
Reba: (super confused look in my direction) I don't think God is the one who pit the olive and put a pimento in it!
Stacie: what? haha...oh...I thought they came that way.
Reba: No, but it might have been God's idea that He gave someone to do that...but they don't naturally come that way.
