When a bride inquires with Deborah Michelle Photography & lists out that her & her fiance are “super laid back & fun!” And that they want their wedding to be true celebration of their love story, you can go ahead & count me in. Then immediately send me a photo of your pup & I am so your Alabama Wedding Photographer!

Elizabeth & Michael were the perfect pair to roam about with at one of my favorite Birmingham spots, the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. Michael shared with me one of the most romantic proposals I've ever heard & I just loved hearing him tell me all about it in person. Hint: it involved a ferris wheel!

These two gladly came to Birmingham for their engagement portrait session & the next time I see them will be their wedding day in Mobile, Alabama. My two hometowns collide in the best combination possible!

I’m telling you, these two are naturals! These first few portraits were taken during the “crash course in posing”.

Ah! I cannot wait for July when we get to celebrate these two in Mobile, Alabama!

Venue: Birmingham Botanical Gardens
