Liza & Fred: Arden Photography

This may have been one of our favorite weddings of the summer. So filled with happiness and love was this couple. Upon their "first glance" meeting, Liza whispered to Fred, "I cannot wait to marry you." Classic touches graced this Windwood wedding with roses and satin, and a few unexpected details like personalized bug spray bottles for their guests. It turned into a real party after the ceremony as the band heated up, the lights flicked on, and the guests started grooving! Congratulations Liza and Fred! 

Hope Gala: Arden Photography

The American Cancer Society of Birmingham hosted its 34th annual Hope Gala. It is an event that aids in fundraising for local cancer centers and also honors a Birmingham family that has been affected by cancer. This year's event celebrated the life of local artist, Toni Tully. Her family donated three original works of art to the auction that was held to raise funds. Many other local vendors and artists also supported the event by donating items of their own. Dinner, hors d'oeuvres, drinks, and dancing accompanied the evening. There was much hope to be had at The Hope Gala. 

Father Daughter Dance: Arden Photography

John Mayer put it best when he sang, “On behalf of every man Looking out for every girl You are the God and the weight of her world”

A fathers love is a special kind of love. They dread the day they will give their daughters away and that is what makes the father daughter dance such a remarkable moment to photograph. It is the moment that a daughters father truly is at peace and ready for a new man to watch over his little girl.
