I have been a busy girl, and I LOVE IT! Thank you thank you to all of my amazing clients-turned-friends who trust me with your most special moments and memories. I am so happy to do what I do! Lots of great stuff is on the way, and here’s a little sneak peek of photo-goodness that hasn’t made it to the blog yet…

Ashlee: Bridal Portraits

Posted

When we were shooting Ashlee’s bridal portraits on her birthday back in September, she kept threatening her BFF and soon-to-be sister-in-law that she had BETTER NOT put any of the photos she was snapping on facebook…apparently Lindsey has a hard time keeping secrets. Well, when I got home and looked at these portraits, it was all I could do not to post them myself!! I told Ashlee this week that I can’t wait any longer, I am putting her post together and hitting “Publish” from her reception! So…if you are reading this on Saturday evening, Ashlee and Pat have just said “I do,” and they are now busy cutting the cake and dancing the night away at Hopkins Farm. And I don’t have to wait any longer to show you Ashlee’s artsy + elegant bridal portraits. Yay!

Love, love, love this one!

The tiny ladybug in Ashee’s bouquet was a little good luck surprise from her florist Kim at “all in the Details.”

I can’t decide between color and b&w. What do you think?

Everybody loves a Southern girl!

Ashlee and Patrick are huge fans of the Braves and the Panthers. Love these sassy shots!

Ashlee is such an awesome bride, and she really has an eye for the artistic. She totally stepped out of the norm and ordered the silhouette on the left for her 16×20 canvas. Too cool!

I had about a million favorites from Ashlee’s session, but this is probably my number one favorite image. Love the sky, love her grace, LOVE.IT.

Whew, I feel a weight lifted off of me to finally show these, haha! Ashlee, you rocked it, girl! Happy Wedding Day!

Don’t forget to leave a comment and “show me some love!”

Kristie & Robert–Sneak Peek!

Kristie and Robert were married today beneath the bluest Carolina skies and a breeze rolling off of Lake Greenwood. It was a perfect day.

Affirmations

Posted

One of my personal goals this year is to do a better job letting people know when I appreciate them, because, really who doesn’t like to know that their time and efforts are meaningful? Sometimes just hearing those words of praise and gratitude can make such a huge difference!

Today, out of the blue, I received the sweetest email from a client that I had lost touch with. Her message was such an affirmation to me that I am right where I need to be…and maybe I have been all along.

She wrote:
“I wanted to send you a quick note and tell you that we celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary today. Last night I pulled out our wedding album and just sat and laughed and cried forever… I wanted to thank you for capturing those memories for us 5 years ago today. I see so many expressions and emotions in the photos that make me remember every moment. I guess that’s what makes your ‘craft’ so special.”

If I can do that for every client–really & truly help you remember not just what you were doing but also the way you felt during that moment–then I have all the affirmation I need.

Ashley & James: Married

Posted

Ashley and James are so many things: spiritual, elegant, stylish, kind, loving. Their wedding was such a reflection of them, with an emotional “First Look” before the ceremony; crisp black, white, and green details; and the love of their family, friends, and God pouring over them as they became husband and wife.

Check out all this emotion from the “First Look!” *swoon*

Instead of a traditional guest book, Ashley and James’ guests signed this hardbound copy of “InStyle Weddings.” What a cool idea!

I love the paparazzi-like feel of these “going-away” photos…

My favorite part of any wedding is “couple pictures” of the bride and groom. Here are some of my favorite portraits of the day:
