MAY 12, 2018 MOBILE, AL - The weather on this wedding day was glorious and this couple - Y'ALL - they looked like they were from Hollywood. And actually, Keaton Bass - the groom - IS from California.... born and raised. He is super brilliant: he married a Southern girl from Mobile! Tori Hall (Victoria) grew up in Mobile, graduated from the University of Alabama, and followed her career path to California where she works for Hewlett-Packard. And guess who she met at work? Keaton... her future husband!

Tori and her bridesmaids had the gracious use of Bishop Russell Kendrick's beautifully appointed apartment at Christ Church Cathedral for the entire day of the wedding. The groomsmen had roomy space to lounge in the parish hall. The stress level was low with everyone being in one place. Logistics were easy.

Tori and Keaton did their "first look" in the beautiful, green Cathedral garden. After several portrait shots we joined the wedding party and walked across the street to Mardi Gras Park and then to Fort Conde for some group shots. I stayed behind with the couple and spent some special time with them in the Fort's courtyard of Ft. Conde.

The ceremony was at 6 pm at the Cathedral and the church was full! The Dean of the Cathedral, The Very Reverend Beverly Gibson officiated.

After a short but fun trolley ride, the wedding party stepped into Azalea Manor on Dauphin St. "Small Zoo" played at the reception and they were great! The bride's Dad is the lead guitarist and he was amazing!

I love flowers, beautiful manners, gorgeous dresses, wonderfully "done" hair, makeup, cake, and lovely spaces! Weddings include ALL of those things and I am in heaven when I am spending the day with a bride and groom at a decorated venue with their family and friends. My professional work includes a history of all kinds of photography: architecture, news, children, fashion.... and weddings require photography expertise in all of these things. Plus, in my super young years I was a film model and also did pageants (it was the thing back in the day) so I know what it is like to be on your side of the camera. I try my best to gently make my couples comfortable and relaxed, and at the same time confidently guide and direct members of the wedding party and family through the photographic timeline. Its always fun, and I can't wait to get back to the studio and take a peek at what I've captured!

My natural editing style is photojournalistic realism but with brighter colors and an added bit of glamour. However, I also love the surreal, light and airy fairylike look and with certain brides and weddings, this works best. I have the editing skills to give you an edgy black and white, or a vintage kodachrome 50's retro look. We will talk about what you prefer, and if you simply want a combination, we can do it. I find life much more interesting meeting lots of different people and we all have our own filters. So offering a diverse choice of looks from which you can choose, is always more interesting for us all! Look through my photographs on this site and you'll see the diversity of styles I can offer.
