The Odoms | 10.14.17

February 15, 2018/ Debby Cullum

Often times you hear of two high school sweethearts falling in love & getting married. And I am lucky enough to have witnessed one of those sweet stories with my own eyes. It was the most perfect October day when these two began their journey as husband & wife.

The bride dreamed of being like Cinderella on her wedding day, after all their proposal happened at Disney! Her vision came to life that day as she tiptoed to her prince charming for the first time & then later as he twirled her around the dance floor.

Catherine & Ocean couldn't stop smiling the entire day & neither could I! What a treat it was to celebrate their wedding day with family & friends.

I believe in traditions. Keeping them & making new ones too. Each one brings forth memories much like a sixpence carried by your mother & grandmother on their wedding days. Now it's your turn to carry on the sweet tradition. I loved incoorparting these family heirlooms into Catherine's bridal details.

I have said it before but I will say it again. Make time, even if it's just 15 minutes, for "Just Married" portraits. They always turn out to be some of my favorites portraits of the entire wedding day.

"Where you go I will go, & where you stay I will stay." Ruth 1:16

Only God could make two souls so perfect for one another. Sarah Margaret is just as sweet as that smile of hers. And Chance is smitten by her in every way. I've known Chance & his family for some time & to be a part of such a special union was an honor for me.

SM & Chance share a love for horses & being outside. (Remember their proposal where Chance road up on a horse & got down on one knee?!) Well Chance just so happens to build barns for a living. So of course he built a barn to get married in! How stunning is Tachee Farms?!

Ah! That just married feeling - can't wipe that smile off their faces!

Congrats Mr & Mrs Hill! Excited to see how God uses your marriage for His glory!

DMP & Ducks | December 15th, 2016

December 27, 2016/ Debby Cullum

2016 was a huge year for DMP - we set out to focus on weddings. We wanted to celebrate our couples with a end of the year party!

On December 15th, 2016 the Taylors (June 11th) met the Rivers (August 13th).

We always thought it'd be super cool for DMP couples to met one another. These couples are not only experiencing their first year of marriage, but allowed DMP to capture the start of their journey together. How cool is that?!

If you live in Mobile, chances are you don't live here because you fell in love with the weather. Tuesday night was a warm 70 degrees, but come Thursday night (the night of our tour) it was a lovely 40 degrees - maybe. So we bundled up in blankets, sipped hot chocolate & enjoyed the warmth of hot hands. We cruised the streets (& water) of Mobile & sung Christmas carols. One of our favorite parts was seeing the Oakleigh District decked out in Christmas lights. (*Please excuse the blurriness - all pics taken on an iPhone.)
