REBECCA and ORBIE


This Wedding has got to be tops on my list of "Fun and Favorites". Both the bride and groom, REBECCA MEREDITH & ORBIE PULLEN, happen to be Wedding Photographers. So everyone asks me ... "how do you plan a Wedding for 2 of the most remarkable Wedding Photographers? And how would you like to be their Wedding Photographer?". Well, luckily they selected one of the industry's premiere photographers and dear friends, ALISHA and BROOK (aka "The Brook") TODD of ALISHA BROOK PHOTOGRAPHY. And I was fortunate enough to coordinate their fabulous, whimsical and colorful day - not to mention becoming such great friends with them (i heart you, BECCA and ORBIE!). With our newfound friendship and comraderie, I've grown to know them even better, making planning their Wedding an emotional, stunning and flawless event. So, to REBECCA and ORBIE ..... you did it - CONGRATS!
