Happy Holidays!

Things have been really hectic since around the middle of November. Wanted to share some favorites from many sessions in the past few weeks.

High School Sweethearts

Well I'm behind posting this blog (well any blog come to think of it!) but I wanted to share about this wonderful couple. I will be privileged to photograph their wedding in October 2010. Brittany and Johnathan are absolutely great and such a sweet couple. They told me they met in high school and continued to date throughout college at Western Carolina. Johnathan was so sweet constantly asking if we would take pictures of him kissing Brittany and he even provided ideas for pictures. [I can only be so lucky to meet more grooms like him:)] I'm looking forward to doing Brittany's bridals in the spring and then their wedding in the fall. We had a fun day with them for their engagement session in Lincoln County a few weeks ago. I will also post more pictures of them in the spring after we travel to the Western campus. Be sure to check back.

Love from Cleveland to Catawba

I started October 10th by photographing Mark and Billie Wright for their 25th wedding anniversary around noon in Bessemer City. Then it was off to the wedding I attended at the Rock Barn in Hickory while my assistant Amy was shooting another wedding held on private property in Shelby, both at 3pm.

Bridal Show

We wanted to share with everyone our booth at the Catawba Valley Bridal Fair. Thanks to all who came out and visited us that day.

September

I am reminded by the song "Wake Me Up When September Ends" by Green Day. September has been very busy for me (and I'm loving every minute of it!) It's been a hectic blast to say the least...lol. My assistant Amy and I teamed up two weekends ago for a senior shoot on Saturday (see below)and then a fashion shoot with Danielle on Labor Day Monday. I also did a small shoot solo with Miss Madison that same afternoon. I added to the hectic weekend on Sunday with three..yes THREE baby shoots one right after the other. Having three babies here all at once was actually quite pleasant. They were all fascinated with each other surprisely. Upcoming this weekend (September 20th) I'll be presenting at my first bridal show. I'm very excited and hope this gets my name out. Come out and see myself with Amy, lower level of Valley Hills Mall (Hickory) outside Belks. Look for the hot pink, that will be us!

Some of my favorites from the past shoots of Labor Day weekend.
