Comfortable.  Content.  Happy.  Joyful.  Smitten.  All of these words perfectly describe Alex and April.  They’ve been together for quite some time so it is fitting that they are the epitome of the aforementioned adjectives, but simple love is written all over these two.  They were introduced by a friend, who I say, could not have picked out a more perfect match.  Their love is easy.  It’s a perfect kind of “no-frills” love that people dream about.  I easily picture Alex and April sitting on a front porch swing 75 years from now, holding each other with the same simple glances they did on this day.  That my friends is a love people can only hope for…and I’m glad these two have found it in each other.  Hold on to that.

April you’re pretty.  Alex, I’m so glad you know exactly what you have in your arms.

See that sweet contentment I was talking about?  Yeah…you don’t see this every day.  I’m glad I see it in you two.

May 2012 can’t get here fast enough.  Thanks guys for reminding us how easy love should be.  We can’t wait til our paths cross again!

YES! YES! YES! YES!  I am finally ready to show you guys these pics!  I really think this may be some of our best work yet!  I am not going to spend a lot of time yapping up here in the beginning, because I want you guys to see every awesome little bit about Alex and Alisha!  So onto the pics!!!!!

How FREAKING hillarious are these shirts?!?!?!  That is actually a funny pic we took from their engagement session and we think they found the perfect use for it!  Alisha…your family ROCKS!!!

And these shoes?!?!?  AYKM?!?!?  Girl, you got some serious style!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again….This is how every girl should react when putting on their wedding dress!  LOOOOOOOOOVE THIS!

YYYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSS!  Wedding day had finally arrived!

Alisha….there are not enough words to describe how beautiful you are.  I could try, but no matter what I say it would pail in comparison.  I can honestly say for one of the few times in my life…I AM SPEECHLESS.  So excuse my lack of compliments…just know that I am confident that I wouldn’t be able to even come close to describing how stunning you were, so I am going to let the pics speak for themselves!

So there are about a million and four reasons why couples should elect to do “first look’s.”  But especially when a couple is getting married and having the reception at the same venue.  You all know how impossible it is to get away once everyone gets there.  This way you go ahead and knock out some awesome photos with NO STRESS about time crunches, and you will LOVE the results…TRUST ME!

See, just look at the AMAZING photos we were able to snag of these two!

(I can just imagine the thoughts going through Alex’s mind when he was checking out his gorgeous bride for the first time here!)

I love you guys.  It is honestly humbling, inspiring, and beautiful to watch you two love each other.

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PHOTO.

Alex is our first groom to do a bow tie…..I say….STUD ALERT!  Seriously…not many guys can pull that one off, but you not only pulled it off….you redefined what good looking in a tux is!!!!

If you’re looking for a place to get married….WHITE HALL…is it!!!  This place is full of non-stop inspiration and beauty.

If you need a little inspiration about what to do with those engagement pics….here’s an idea!

I don’t think Alisha was able to stop smiling all day!!!  Check out the gusto of this bouquet toss!

Love this little moment from the first dance!

The perfect good-bye, good-luck, happy-wedding send off!

SOOOOOOOO SWEET!

I love how you two make each other laugh.

Just looking at this shot makes me want to cuddle my hubby.

Alex actually drove this truck home from ALASKA!  How great is that?  Thanks for thinking ahead for us, Alex,and saving this truck to be a perfect backdrop for your engagement session one day!  We really appreciate it!

Meet Howard…he’s cute!

I love you two.  Thanks for falling in love and asking us to document it.  It makes me happy!

Taylorsville, KY

Wowza!  What you guys have is beautiful.  It is exciting to see two people as crazy about each other as you guys are.  Alex, I was amazed all day at how you adored Alisha.  The way you held her, made her smile, looked at her, it was just simply beautiful.  Alisha, it is so sweet how relaxed with Alex you are.  You totally just fall into him and trust him to take care of you and make you happy forever.  I have no doubt that he will.  You guys are something rare to find, and we are sure glad we get to be such a small part of something this perfect.

We can’t wait for June to get here.  You guys are sure to have a fabulous wedding, and we honestly just can’t wait to hang with you guys again!  In fact…let’s grab a pizza at the new Papa John’s!  Next time…we’re there!
