Baby Brother {and his AWESOME fiance}
May 6, 2013
Where do I even begin? I don’t really know. Maybe it’s best that I not say much at all, except that I love you both to the moon and back, and I’m so so grateful God put you both in my life, one by blood, and one just by sheer goodness. 
Kristin, we all love you, and we can’t wait for you to be a part of our family, even though you mostly already are, we can’t wait for it to be official in just a few short months!
We met in Atlanta a few weeks ago, because Jason and Eli and I were visiting Jason’s family, and Michael and Kristin were in town for a wedding. So it worked out perfectly. Except that it didn’t. There were some complications that morning, and we were trying to beat a STORM, but fortunately, Michael and Kristin are just so good-looking and so in love that it didn’t take long to get some really fabulous shot. And a shout out to another sister-in-law for the awesome location suggestion. Man, I have great family. So now I’ll quit talking….
Come on, October 18…
I met Tim and Ashley over on Clemson’s campus for their engagement session a few weeks ago. Now, I’m the world’s WORST planner. Maybe shouldn’t admit that, but there it is. I like having plans, I really do, it’s just that sometimes time sneaks up on me. Anyways, for all the times I’ve shot in Death Valley, I’ve planned it maybe three times. And that was because brides/grooms/families/etc. knew someone, and THEY did the planning. But it’s always been open. ALWAYS. Well, this time, since it was a Sunday afternoon, and I knew it was really important to this couple, I planned. Ahead of time. I called, I scheduled, and we showed up, and it was LOCKED. Every gate. All around the stadium. I checked. I had to call campus police and BEG someone to come let us in. And they did. But I felt really slack. And really nervous. BUT it was totally worth it. Tim and Ashley were so much fun to be with, and they’re pretty good-looking, to boot. Congrats you two, I can’t wait for your wedding in September!
Thanks for allowing me to be a part of such a special time in your lives!

Meet Jay and Monica. They are one of the happiest couples ever. Seriously. They smiled and laughed all day. And it was pretty hot outside. Being 8 months pregnant, I know hot. They were SO much fun to work with, though, and made my last wedding pre-baby SO enjoyable and laid back. Monica was the epitome of a bride who was just excited to be getting married, and looking forward to enjoying her wedding day!
I loved the detail and colors in the wedding. Monica must REALLY trust her bridesmaids (and with good reason, it seems) – she assigned each a color, and let them choose their own dress. (That they REALLY might wear again!!) I love the way it turned out.
Jay and Monica, thanks for allowing me the privilege of being a part of your day. I truly enjoyed it!
Have I mentioned how I love when couples choose to do a first look? Especially when they choose to do a first look and the light is JUST right. I LOVE this series. (And I cut it down to 4 from like…10)
I’d never shot a wedding at Grace Dowtown before, but it was so much fun! So many great places to shoot, even on a hot July afternoon. I LOVE this wall, and I love how the white wall makes all the fun colors really pop.
We actually got these after the ceremony, but I cheated and put them in the first blog post. But I can do that, right?
My totally fabulous second shooter, Sabrina, snagged this shot. I love it.
I think maybe that’s enough for one post…Part II {Ceremony and Reception} coming tomorrow….
Josh and Katie were married a few weeks ago at Sapphire Creek Events in Simpsonville. The ceremony was in the garden, and it was beautiful. They were one of the most laid-back couples ever, and were surrounded by family and friends who were SO happy to be celebrating with them! I had a great time being with them, and they made my day so enjoyable – even though my prego self was waddling around.
Thanks, guys! I hope ya’ll are loving married life and enjoying getting settled in to your new town and home!
Rush & Blaire {Seneca, SC Engagement Photographer}
September 29, 2011
Rush and Blaire were so much fun. They are getting married in May of next year in Birmingham, so I’m not doing their wedding, but they wanted some pictures at Rush’s family’s home in Seneca. Blaire was quite the model fiancee – she even took the canoe out on the pond – with the dog. Very impressive. They had an engagement party on Friday night, which I also took pictures for, and it was SO much fun. They are such a gorgeous couple, don’t you think? I wish the both of you all the happiness in the world! Thanks so much for asking me to be a part of such a fun weekend!
