Looking back on the last year, I feel so thankful to have had the chance to be a part of so many wonderful couples’ weddings. Silver Thumb has grown so much in the last year! I want to say thanks to all my clients, friends and family for all the love and encouragement, and for making 2009 a memorable year for Silver Thumb Photography. I’m looking forward to 2010!!
Marta and Jim got married the day after Thanksgiving. I already photographed one wedding for this family, Jim is one of my past bride’s dad. (Elysia + Wes, May 2009) I knew it was going to be a fun one, and it was a blast to be a part of! Marta has a smile that just lights up a room, you could totally see the love for her just bursting out of Jim. Marta and Jim, thanks for making my last 2009 wedding a great one. . I hope you love your photos!
We shot Rachael and Jason’s engagement photos in Greektown, Detroit. These two are the cutest. . I can’t wait for the wedding in August!!
Rachelle and John tied the knot last month. We got really lucky with an unseasonably beautiful Saturday in November! Rachelle and her bridesmaids got ready at the Townsend Hotel in Birmingham, the ceremony was at The First United Methodist Church of Birmingham and the reception was at the Birmingham Country Club. . the locations were great. The reception was gorgeous with flowers from Vivano and the band Persuasion through the Lorio Ross Entertainment Group totally rocked the dance floor! A big thank you to the always fun Adam Czap for pitching in to second shoot for the day. John and Rachelle, *Hugs* I hope you LOVE them!
Rachelle had some amazing details. . John got the “I Do” rhinestones for the bottom of her shoes, I didn’t notice that they were Nike Air until I was editing. . I’m totally going to be on the lookout for a pair of those now!
An unbelievably stunning bride. . .
Oh, how I love the Townsend!
The girls were a blast to be around!
