RSS feed| Hunting Beach, SC Wedding - Amber and Tyler Jul, 22 2008 by mel | |
|
This past weekend we were in South Carolina for Amber and Tyler’s wedding. These guys have been dating for 6 years and Amber was positively beside herself to be getting married! :o) In fact, she was so cute about it, I’m posting a couple of extra images. See what I mean? In just about every ceremony photo she has some variation of this giddy look. So cute!
When we first met these guys, they were quick to point out that they were having a beach wedding but they weren’t your big time “wedding-y” types and they hated the typical beach photos. That’s why I have to post this one. The groomsmen were determined that we had to do a jumping shot and I have to admit, this one is hilarious, if for no other reason than the bride got the most air. :o)
And now for one of my favorites! East Coast beaches are so different from what we think of as “the beach” because they have all of these great trees that run almost completely to the water. The light was coming through them so nicely and we just had to capture some of that South Carolina flavor…
Thanks for looking! Amber and Tyler, family and friends - we had such a wonderful time with you all! Thanks and congratulations!! :o) | |

Mel Watson: So is there any reason that Ru Paul’s song “Work… work it girl… do your thing… on the runway” is playing in my head as I look at these? No there is no reason… these shots are awesome guys. High five for the bride for getting mad ups during the jump shot… and the tree photo is breath taking.

| Savannah, Georgia Weddings - Marlena and Tim Part 2 Jul, 14 2008 by mel | |
|
This past weekend was another wonderful weekend off! I could totally get used to this! I do have to say though that I’m so excited about this weekend’s wedding with Amber and Tyler! We’re heading out to Hunting Beach in South Carolina and it should be awesome! In the meantime, as promised: Marlena and Tim’s Us Session. This is one of my favorite Us Sessions to date! Savannah is our kind of town - rustic and colorful all in one. The fact that Marlena and Tim can’t take a bad picture is just bonus! :o)
I simply adore spanish moss! Think we can get it to grow in TN?
ah cobblestone! I love the streets here and Marlena was great to lay in them. :o)
The Wrights in Wright Square
Thanks for looking! :o) - Mel and Sean | |

We have a couple of weeks off from shooting weddings but I still wanted to share something with you guys so I started thinking through our previous weddings and shoots. It then occurred to me that we never did a feature post for Marlena and Tim’s wedding last November! They are such a sweet, cute couple and their wedding was too much fun so it’s really just too bad you’ve not seen these already! They were married at the Westin Hotel in Savannah and it all couldn’t have gone more perfectly. We did a day after shoot with them in Savannah’s historic district that I’ll have to post later but here is a little recap of their fabulous day…
Enjoying a quiet moment together before the festivities begin…
The guys…
The guys in their element…
The Ladies…
A little love from mom and dad. :o)
Time to get married.
He had been waiting for this moment since they were in high school years ago…
Husband and Wife!
The reception was gogeous, over-looking the river and Savannah’s signature bridge.
I love these from their first dance. They just feel so full of love…
Sparklers are my current favorite send off device.
The end…
Thanks for looking! :o) Hope everyone is having a wonderful week! Thanks again Marlena and Tim! :o) Hugs, Mel and Sean | |

| Nashville, TN Wedding - Community Church and Bluegrass Yacht and Country Club Jul, 5 2008 by mel | |
|
Melissa and Brad started dating in high school and have been together for 6 years - that’s almost as long as Sean and I and we’ve been married for 5 years now. I can’t imagine! They must have been soooo ready to tie the knot! Their day finally came last Saturday and we couldn’t be happier for them. They are such a sweet couple with the sweetest families! The ceremony performed by Melissa’s dad at Community Church was beautiful and I don’t think you could have packed another soul into the ballroom at the Bluegrass Yacht and Country Club! You guys have A LOT of friends!! Thanks for having us join in the big celebration! Hope you enjoy the sneak peek! :o) Happy 4th everyone!
