I wanted to use a candid from the wedding this past weekend, but I had a really hard time narrowing it down. I managed to get it down to two. This first one I just love for it's simplicity, the lighting sets the perfect mood and it is a sweet moment between the couple during their first dance....
I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of the fabulous couple, Tess and Noor, on Sunday. We had to battle Tropical Storm Fay to get our pictures, luckily the rain held off just long enough for us to get some very quick photo opportunities. We had to run for shelter a few times to avoid ruining everyone's hair and make-up. The biggest blessing of the day was that we managed to get the whole ceremony in before the bottom fell out again, phew! It was a beautiful ceremony and reception. The super fun and friendly staff at Flint Hill did a fabulous job hosting and coordinating the whole event. It was truly a beautiful day for a beautiful family that I will never forget. Thank you Tess and Noor for making me a part of your special day, I wish you both all of the happiness in the world and a lifetime of true love!
I had the opportunity to attend a pithi ceremony last night for a wonderful couple who is getting married tomorrow. It was such an amazing event full of beautiful colors, fabulous food, fun rituals and good friends and family! Being the sap that I am I of course became a bit teary from time to time. I just LOVE when friends and family come together to celebrate, especially an event as wonderful as marriage. I feel so blessed to have been invited to attend this event and I am loving all of the beautiful color in the photos that I was able to take. Here is the sweet bride and her gorgeous mehndi........
I'm one of those people who loves to just be silly every now and then. I think it is an important part of maintaining happiness and sanity in a world that can often be quite cruel. This is one of those moments and I just LOVE it...........
I like to post various products on the blog every now and then to let you guys know what options you have available when you are going through your ordering process. Today I wanted to show you some of the bound leather albums I have available. These are so nice and timeless. I love the quality of the leather. These are a more traditional style. Your photos are slipped into the matted pages, one image per page and come in either 4x6 or 5x7 formats. They also come in a protective lined box, beautiful! I also have leather accordion albums available but I'll have to show you those another day! Here are some photos of the bound leather albums......

I had the opportunity to photograph some really beautiful jewelry the other day. Meridith Edwards is the designer of this great line of custom jewelry. You can check out more and contact her at her company website called Made With Love Designs. All of her work is handcrafted by her in her Atlanta studio. She does some really beautiful work you should definitely check it out. Here a just a few of my favorite pieces, but it was seriously hard to choose just a few......
This just cracks me up! I felt it was worthy of a Photo of the Week pick simply because it makes me laugh! One of my clients used this a few weeks ago to help make his son smile for my camera. I think it made me laugh more though! :) How much fun is this little guy?!........
This family photo session took place in the morning before it got too terribly hot. We did the entire shoot in their incredibly awesome backyard and thankfully there was plenty of good shade available. Gorgeous! These girls were gorgeous too and were so much fun!! It is always fun to hang out with sisters because it takes me back to my childhood days playing with my sister. I LOVED having a sister, still do! They are so lucky to have each other, it is a bond they will carry with them their entire life. Enough reminiscing, here are just a few favorites from the session........
This maternity session was right in the middle of my crazy 22 hour stint without power. We were one of the lucky families affected by the power outages this past weekend so I was not quite myself, but this nice couple was so sweet to not mention that my hair didn't look quite right and my make-up was crooked. :) Anyhow, we had a great time showing off this precious baby bump. I can only hope my belly looks this cute when I'm pregnant. They were quite the troopers and so great to humor me whenever I had an odd photo idea! I'm so excited for you guys!!! Check out this beautiful mom to be.......
I had the pleasure of photographing a bridal shower this weekend. While hiding behind my camera during this event I realized how much more I love and appreciate showers now that I am married and have had one myself. It is a really special time in ones life and I have to say I found myself getting a little sappy!
