Some gems...

So I was looking through some of the photos that Brandon has been editing from the wedding we shot a few weekends ago and came across these gems. I love the cake photo because it was just such a unique angle to capture it at. I love that we can both be looking at the same thing but our photos will be totally different. The second shot are some guests- I have no idea who they were but they were doing the bubbles all night so it was quite fitting to get a photo of them blowing bubbles. Well, Brandon and I are about to take off for Thanksgiving...and we cannot wait! We need a nice loooong weekend and there's nothing like going home and being pampered and totally rellaaaaxxxxeeedd..... I hope you all have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Oh, and our photo shoot this weekend got rescheduled for December so we really do have the whole weekend off! Good Night-SC

Only 1 more WEEK till Turkey day!

My favorite time of the year is finally upon us (well, besides for fall, spring, and the very beginning of summer;)- the Holidays! I love love love Thanksgiving and this year will be even more fun than last because we will be shooting an engagement session for a couple coming down from Auburn on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. We cannot wait!
So my plan for the holidays is to:
#1- Enjoy my time off from work!
#2- Avoid the mess that is Black Friday at all costs!! I could
tell you stories about standing in the longest line ever.
Best buy. 3:45am. freezing cold...thanks dad;) BTW...we didn't
even get anything good for anyone wondering.
And finally...
#3- Gorge myself on turkey and stuffing

Oh! I completely forgot to mention that we have launched our new site www.addilayphotography.com and we are working on finishing all the pages. Just an FYI if you've tried to access some of the pages and there's nothing there. I will blog as soon as we get it all set up.

Introducing, the Azar's

Their love story is the kind of love story that romantic, sappy John Cusak movies are made of.
Nicole and Steven (a kicker for the New York Dragons) met by chance through a mutual friend four years ago and have been together ever since.
This past Saturday they took the plunge into matrimony before all of their friends and family on the bay at the Eglin Officer's Club. The day was crisp and clear and the water sparkled almost as much as Nicole's eyes as she walked down the aisle.
Nicole and Steven, thank you so much for letting Brandon and I capture your special day. It is always a great joy for us to spend time in the presence of a couple so in love. We hope you are having a blast in Orlando- enjoy the sneak peak!

We're getting a facelift...

Okay, maybe not a la Joan Rivers...but we ARE getting a new website! We have been pondering how we were going to set ourselves apart from other photographers (besides for our obvious awesomeness- i am kidding!) and we knew we would have to have a more customized website. With that said, I'm not sure when we will have our big reveal, It will be sooner than later. Brandon has already started working on it, we'll definitely keep you posted.
Since we will be posting up a lot of wedding pictures from Nicole and Steven's wedding later this weekend I thought I would change it up and leave you with a funny...
This is one of our beloved dogs, Phoebe. She's a genius...

Did you vote?!! Did you vote??!!

I don't know why...maybe because my parents were into politics? maybe because we listened to talk radio for fun?? maybe because my dad and mom would take me with them when they voted??? These are some of the explanations I have come up with as to why I love election season. Lucky for me, I married a man who shares in my love for exercising my right to vote:)
The picture below is Brandon and I after we got back from voting- you can see- i am very excited...I bugged the B-man to take a picture of us when we got home..."so everone can see our 'I voted' stickers!!!" He finally obliged, but I have a strong feeling that it might have only been to try out our new lenses. Either way, here is our documentation of voting in 2008.
Have a great night!
