I was very excited about Khalil and Ashley’s wedding. We had been talking for some time before we figured out all the details but I was excited to know that one of my fine art images gave Ashley some ideas for her wedding. (thanks to a walk into Shop Scad while they were in Savannah visiting)  Then after we talked we both knew we had to have the other one!! Ashley’s wedding ideas started with following the Great Migration, which celebrated southern relatives moving north in search of their freedom. They had many vintage pieces in the details along with traditional African decorations, pictures, old bottles, and cotton. Along with some amazing Chanel shoes Ashley was wearing!! They also celebrated with a watermelon drink and southern styled food. Then ended the night down in the basement set up like a Speakeasy with a special outfit change from Ashley and where they danced the night away!! Khalil and Ashley were married in the Historic Little Rock Baptist Church and had their reception at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American Arts. The ceremony was a mixture of Khalil’s and Ashley’s islamic and baptist beliefs.

Special thanks to Brandi at B. Young Always for doing the bridesmaids make-up.

It takes a little help from everyone!!

How Cute is He!!

I just loved the girls adorable giggles!!

I found this wall while driving around Detroit. Having never been to Detroit I found the city fascinating. You have this mix of beautiful abandoned buildings and art work along the sides of them. This one was painted by the youth of Detroit.

So interesting!! I definitely want to go back and spend time photographing the interesting mix of art in the city.

Yummy!!

I just love her hair piece!
