We met Olivia and Michael Chilton at our first visit to the WZYP Bridal Fair in early January of 2008. At the time, we were still new to the Huntsville market, having done most of our work in Florence (my home town) or Auburn, where Bryan and I lived right after we got married.
So, the Chilton Wedding was our first experience shooting at Monte Sano. Despite the bare trees still left from a cold winter, the views were breath-taking. We did all the pictures before hand, starting with walking the grounds with the happy couple. They were so awesome to work with. You couldn't find two nicer people. Even though storm clouds were rolling in, neither of them cared as long as they left The Lodge as husband and wife.
We made it through the outdoor pictures before the rain hit. The Lodge offered plenty of room for guests to mingle without getting drenched. One of the main things I remember from their reception is how kid-friendly Olivia had made the event. She had special tables set up for her son and the other children, including activities to do throughout the evening.
Overall, a beautiful (but rainy) first experience at a new location with some great people. What more could a photographer ask for?
