Wedding: Megan & Kenneth – Rocky Mount – Prattville, Alabama

After shooting Megan’s bridal portraits, I was excited for her wedding day at Rocky Mount because she is one of those people that is just naturally photogenic.  Most people are better at giving a “serious face” OR a “smiling face”, but she can do one just as easily as the other.  She arrived with flawless makeup by Rebekah of Lush Makeup Art, and as she stepped into her Maggie Sottero gown once again (with a few adjustments made since her bridal portrait), it was clear that she was ready to turn on that Tyra Banks magic once again.

Since they travel extensively for their jobs, I didn’t get to meet Kenneth until the day of the wedding.  The first thing I noticed is he has great dimples (you’ll see those later).  The second thing I noticed was the look on his face as Megan tried to hold it together while she walked down the aisle:

During the ceremony, Kenneth’s four children joined their dad and Megan for a prayer, uniting all of them as a family:

At the reception, everyone enjoyed dancing to music spun by one of the groomsmen (who happens to be a DJ), and cakes by Cake Designs under the pavilion.  Once it was dark, the bride and groom and their guests headed out into a field to release wish lanterns (aka sky lanterns).  Then with candy apple favors in hand, guests showered the newlyweds in sparks as they made their exit.

Megan & Kenneth: I’m thoroughly jealous that you get to spend so much time in my home state.  Thank you for letting me capture a few of your moments in Alabama!
