Can you say “last wedding of this pregnancy”?  Boy I can!  I’ve been anticipating this one for some time and was wondering how gracefully I would be able to waddle through the day at 8 months along!  I have to say though, Shelly and Alan’s wedding was the perfect last pregnancy wedding.  The day was low-key, peaceful, and simply about this couple’s love for each other.  I’m glad to know that I won’t be shooting another wedding at even one week further along, but this one turned out to be really great!  Shelly and Alan, you are beautiful and we are better for knowing you. :0)  We hope you enjoy your sneak peek!  Can’t wait for you to see the rest!

    Very good pictures. Looks like they had a “personal” photographer, someone that wanted to make their day the best! I live in Arkansas so this is my way of seeing them.

  24. Cortney Barkley-Postell on January 30, 2010 at 8:07 am

    What a great teaser! I can’t wait to see how the rest of the day looked through your eyes. I’m sure it is better to capture great images when the couple obviously love each other like Shelly and Alan do. Good souls always come through in great pictures.
