Hannah and Jerry {Featured Wedding} Columbus, GA Wedding Photographers

We are so excited for Hannah and Jerry!  Their wedding day was a perfect day full of friends and family joining in to celebrate with them.  The Barn at Pisgah Hill was a fabulous backdrop for the dream that Hannah wanted for her venue surrounded by a calming countryside full of oaks and water.  Adding even more eye candy were the floral designs that was displayed; LeRae Events + Design went over the top with their use of Peonies and hydrangeas.  Making the day even more special was that Hannah and Jerry included their beloved puppy as the ring bearer.  The reception was full of all kinds of great eats from Red’s Little School House and even a gift of homemade jelly for guests to treat themselves at home.  We want to thank Hannah, Jerry and their family for everything; it was such a blessing to serve you!

WRP / Two Bright Lights Editor's Choice

I remember when I first started photography.  I was a no nothing college student taking a couple of classes for fun, which was anything but!  I can remember having prints critiqued and rejected by my instructor, at times, a heart breaking hit that would warp the idea of what I thought was a good picture.  He pushed harder to make his students better, he tore down so that he could build the right foundation and form the eye to see and create great images.  I don't often miss the days of being critiqued like that, it's kind of hard to over come to trust the future work you produce, even now.  

We recently had the honor of being recognized by a company that has made a name for itself in the photography industry by helping photographers get their work published.  We were recently listed in their list of the top 5% of its members who have their work frequently-published.  I'm just completely humbled to be listed in this group.  Thank you TBL.

I Love Life

I love life!  I said it!  I enjoy everything that graces my life.  As a Christian I've always thought that I should hate this life since it was so wrenched and full of evil.  And that happiness was to be with Jesus, hanging out talking about all the OT stories he’s seen (for those of you who don’t know, OT stands for Old Testament) and miracles he’s done.  Don’t get me wrong, it is the best and will be way more satisfying than the things I go through here; I mean, your in the presence of God.   This thought came to me when I was having one of my battle moments.  I often get hit with this fear of, what would happen if I wasn't here for Meg and B.  I become paralyzed, stricken with fear.  It’s not because I’m afraid of where I’m going when I exit this body; accepting Jesus as Savior secured that.  But it’s more so, what will I miss.  I looked at B today and that’s when it dawned on me.  I’m not afraid of dying, I’m afraid of what I will miss.  That I’ll miss the small moments of him growing up to be an amazing man.  That I’ll miss an anniversary with my most cherished bride and the touch of her hand.  That I’ll miss the sweet joys that God placed in this life for us to enjoy.  Guess what, He gave us the present of life. We should enjoy it, and we should give Him thanks for every moment of it.  For every breath!  I find myself at times, giving thanks without awareness because He let me experience something amazing, a feeling of love or emotion of happiness.  When I bow before Him, I hope my lips could whisper…”thank you for this life you gave me”.  I hope only to make the most of it proclaiming Jesus’ love with what I have left.  It’s this love I was given and have been able to be satisfied in, by grace, and that I wish all could experience.  I’m Wes and I love life!

Featured Wedding : Amber and Philip, Columbus, GA

It's Friday!  And we have a great wedding to feature today!  From the time we met Amber and Philip we knew they were amazing.  For me (Wes), I really get to know our couples during the engagement session as nearly every topic of conversation comes up.  I love this, because it puts an at ease feel about the whole thing, but I get to see who they really are.  I learned that Philip has aspirations of becoming the President of the United States in 2040 and that Amber and I share a weakness.....Reeses Peanut Buttercups.  Most of all, I was able to experience what their friends and family already know, but their genuineness and hospitality speaks volumes, even right into their wedding day.   I can't thank you two enough for allowing Meg and I to photography your wedding day and to get to know you; we pray and hope that your marriage will be filled with blessings!
