Lauren and Eric – Engagement :)
Lauren and Eric were a lot of fun! We ran all over Clover, SC taking pictures. Laughter was not a hard thing for this couple. In fact, several times when I would pose them they would bust out laughing…which i was more than happy to document. It was great meeting you “officially” and I can’t wait until May!





Lauren was up for trying anything!


I think they really liked throwing leaves at me….


Amy and Nate – Engagement ;)
Lots of laughter with these two. Amy and Nate drove in from Charlotte for a little Marion fun! We had a great time! I had not met these two before… but, by the end of the session, we were goofy and I really didn’t want to stop. Thanks you guys!

giving in to my shoe fetish…


little bit of attitude from Nate! He was so funny!

don’t get hit by a car….

Nate is a fireman and i thought this fire escape was appropriate.


i love this outtake of Amy! She had a hard time in the briars… sorry about that.



fun… published :)
Thanks to my good friend Regina Holder who pointed out that I was recently published in My Bella Wedding Guide. www.bellaweddingsguide.com ;) The wedding was Sharon and Matt at Deerpark. I’m attaching the wedding that was featured. I think this wedding was shot during my blog transition and many have not seen these images.
Anywhoo…here it is:


The Zeh Brothers. :)
Talk about the best eyes ever! Love these boys! I haven’t seen Jackson since he was one and he is so big now. And how great to meet little Owen. I’m in love.




i loved this fence! and look at Jackson below… such a boy.

i played with a vintage look on this shot from last week.
i like it.

Blueberry.
Okay, I’m not even gonna lie! These are the brightest blue eyes I’ve ever photographed! Don’t worry Whitney… I’ll blog more of the session next week, but I just couldn’t resist sharing this one!

Abigail … hello fall!!!
It’s amazing how quickly fall came this year.. and how beautiful! I don’t think I’ve seen the leaves this vibrant in a couple of years! I loved shooting Abigail in the middle of it all! Cindy- didn’t we just shoot her newborn pics??? She’s growing so fast!


i couldn’t decide if i prefered bw or color on this shot….so here’s both! What do you think?


6 days old… newborn Ava
This little one means so much to me…. her mommy has helped me so much in the past with my two boys. I was so happy to have her in my studio last week. So sweet and tiny!



A two in one session….
Having shot both these families before… I happily agreed to do a combo session for them in Atlanta last week. I was so glad I did! Heidi and Erin, so great to see you and the kids again!








Stuart and Jeremy – The Councill House
What a beautiful fall wedding! I’m such a sucker for older homes… so of course, I fell in love with the Councill House B&B. http://www.councillhouse.com/
The owners, Sarah and Michael, were so excited to host their only daughter’s wedding at the home and I was more than happy to document the event! Thanks for having me in to your home! I felt so at ease and hope to work with you in the future. Stuart and Jeremy, you guys are so sweet! My only regret is that I didn’t get to see your sweet dog that day.









Below are dessert shot glasses. What a great idea and soooo yummy… i admit i had more than one.


the bride and her father shared some sweet moments.






boo boos and more…
I just got off the phone with a mom concerned about her little guy. I’m shooting a session for him tomorrow and he has a bump near his eye. It’s a classic problem that I see all the time. I wanted to post a recent example of what I can do for all those worried mom’s out there. I’ve faced this situation more than once. Don’t feel you need to cancel your session.
I’ll attach an example from last week to better illustrate a before and after. Now, I try to keep photoshop to a minimum with kids, but I just want to show what can be done. This can apply to bruises, bumps, acne… yada yada.

and after.
