Sallee Anne + Jamie are Married! | Greer, SC Wedding Photographer

Posted

They say you can judge a person by the company they keep. If this is true, then Jamie and Sallee Anne are some of the kindest, most laid-back, and most fun people around! On their wedding day, Sallee Anne and Jamie were truly surrounded by love and positivity–so many friends and such large families, all filled with people dancing, hugging, laughing, loving. Sallee Anne and Jamie: it was a joy to photograph your wedding and to watch you begin your lives with such support and nurturing. May that follow you throughout your lives!

Sallee Anne’s flowers were so bright and beautiful! Her florist was Greg Foster…who just does this via word of mouth. Such great work!

Sallee Anne and Jamie chose to do a “First Look” and see each other before their ceremony. I think this is SUCH a great idea, for so many reasons. Most importantly, it allows the bride and groom to have a few private moments together to laugh and cry and just be together to let it all sink in without everybody watching. It is special to capture on camera those first instants of seeing each other! And finally, from a logistics perspective, it is nice to take your family and group photos before the ceremony, so you can get outta there and get to your reception faster! (Tony and I are doing a First Look, and it already gives me butterflies to know that we’ll get to have that private time together before the rush of the day begins.)

Here she comes! So cute and excited!

At the reception at Thornblade Club, everyone gathered around Jamie’s dad’s awesome Thunderbird. Nice ride! (By the way, his dad snuck the car over to us when we shot Sallee Anne’s bridal portraits. She wanted to surprise Jamie with some photos of her and the car! So fun!)

The Murphys’ and Collins’ Family Portraits: Sneak Peek! | Greenville Baby and Family Photographer

Posted

I went to school with both of these lovely sisters, and it was lots of fun to photograph each of their families this morning while they were all back in town for a visit! I photographed Nicole’s adorably fun family a couple of years ago, and it’s always special to be asked again. Tara’s sweet baby boy is just 3 weeks old, and oooooh so cute!

Enjoy this Sneak Peek…more to come soon!

Dad is preparing to deploy, and it was really important that we photograph him in uniform, spending time with his family…

8 Month Old Anna’s Sneak Peek! | Greenville, SC Baby Portraits

Posted

Get ready to eat her up–Miss Anna is 8 months old, cute as can be, and SUCH a happy baby! I photographed her and her parents this weekend on a sticky, humid, Southern morning in some Greer SC peach orchards and around their home. In spite of the heat we had a blast and got some adorable portraits of this little girl! Enjoy her sneak peek! (Peach pics to come…)
