The JOURNAL

First off… I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE (can I say it enough?!?!?!?!?!) that I’m now within DRIVING distance of my best friend… selfishly, I wish the 2 hours and 15 minutes was more like 15 minutes, but just a highway away will do!!!!!!!!  Anyways, on to what this blog is […]

I can say that Gary & I had a BEAUTIFUL wedding day weather wise so I have NOOO idea what it would be like to be the bride on a day that it is raining.  I have photographed many a bride on a rainy wedding day & even though it’s supposed to be “good luck” […]

I met Eli & Christine for the first time over the weekend of July 4th back in 2009!!  I was in Charlotte visiting my best friend Melissa & she planned all sorts of fun activities while I was in town.  One of those being Pops in the Park (I really hope that’s what it’s called)!!  […]

After Kimberly & John said I do, we all headed to The Heights Villa to celebrate!!  It was my first time at this venue & I really liked how charming it was.  Like so many things with the ceremony the reception had so many hand details that were put together with so much love!!  I […]

You might recognize these two from their engagement session back in December.  🙂 🙂 Kimberly & John tied the knot on a VERY beautiful… yet.. VERY HOT, August, Saturday afternoon.  This was one of the sweetest days & it was so much fun to be there to capture it all!!  The ceremony took place at […]

I love photographing weddings, I really, really do!!  I remember the first time I attended a wedding as a photographer like it was yesterday (and 5 years later I still get the same butterflies that I got that afternoon).  That day I was actually second shooting for one of my now best friends & I […]
