I've been fortunate to know the Lewises for a few years now as we were all the same year at Samford and if you went to Samford, you know that everyone knows everyone!
Bray and I were on the same hall my freshman year and although we weren't super close at that time, we stayed friends though having a lot of mutual friends and random hall activities set by out RA, John Henry. My first memory of bray is when we were all playing "Settlers of Catan" and while playing, Bray was wearing an Iron Man helmet and kept opening and closing the mask.
Fast forward a few months, and Bray and I took a very embarassing photo of us getting ready for ADPi's Mallard dance where we both wore the world's shortest jorts... it was extremely hysterical at the time, but looking back, I am realizing we were just crazy!
When Bray and Alli got engaged, they reached out to me about taking engagement photos. We had a session going all around Downtown Birmingham and Railroad Park. Alli was telling me how comfortable Bray was with me being behind the camera as he usually HATES taking photos, but had a lot of fun with me.
After that, she proceeded, over the course of many months, to tell me how much she loved the photos and wanted to hire me to be their wedding photographer.
The day of the wedding finally came and although there were some last minute changes due to the freezing cold weather. All of the hiccups slowly dissipated as we moved from an outdoor wedding to be inside, but once that happened, the day went off without a hitch, well besides the hitch between Bray and Alli! That is going to continue for a long time to come!
"Parker took my husband and I’s graduation photos in 2021, and has since become an incredible friend. His ability to capture me and Michael is unlike any photographer I’ve worked with before. Not only does he make you feel comfortable in every situation, but he makes sure the product is exactly what you’re looking for. I worked for many talented photographers, and it was a no brainer to have Parker shoot our engagement photos and ultimately our wedding. I wouldn’t have felt so at ease with anyone else in charge of such an important part of our life. 10000/10 recommend!"
"Parker went above and beyond to make sure our surprise engagement was recorded for us to relive the moment over and over again. He made the process simple for us while executing the plan perfectly that was made days before the proposal. He also was able to be at the surprise party afterwards to truly capture what it was like to be with our family and closest friends on this special day. Parker then quickly got us a special preview hours after the fact while finishing the full product in a very quick time frame. I would endorse parker to anyone looking for a professional to capture any special moment in their lives, big or small."
"We felt so at ease with Parker behind the lens for our engagement photo shoot. He made the whole experience a fun and memorable one that ultimately made us feel celebrated. Parker was very professional and confident in his work, which allowed us to just enjoy the process and trust his creativity. He came to the shoot ready with many poses for us to try and also ensured the specific poses we wanted were captured. Thank you Parker!"
