Tori and Mike!






Tori and Mike's wedding was great!  They were happy and excited the whole day.  Not only did we get great photos, but I'm pretty sure they had a blast.  Their candy bar alone was a huge hit at the reception, not to mention cupcakes, dancing and food.  Thanks guys!  I had fun!

Trying to win a new yard!






My cousin, boyfriend and friends were nice enough to help me out with trying to win a yard makeover.  We have to submit a video and these photos are from the filming of said video.   It involved a mud pit and "faux" poison ivy.  Enjoy.  We sure did. :-)

Brandy and Nick






Brandy and Nick have to be one of the funniest couples I've photographed recently.  I couldn't stop laughing.  Their sense of humor was right up my alley.  That being said, their photographs came out great.  They were honestly happy and excited about the day and it came through in their photographs.  I don't think I've seen a bride dance CONSTANTLY through out the reception.  It was great!  Thanks, you guys!  I had a blast and I hope you did as well!

Riley









What can I say about Riley. . .she is beautiful and is stunning in these photos.  She has a classic way about her on film that seems timeless.  These magical shoots only come along every once in a while and when they do, I am so thankful I'm a photographer.  Enjoy.  Thanks, Jenny!

Erin






Erin is in third grade and is adorable.  We had a good time photographing her along with her little cousin, Riley, at her grandmothers plantation home.  She did a great job and the hat that her grandmother wanted her to wear, but she wasn't having, turned out beautiful. 

Melinda and Jose






This couple are so awesome.  We had a great time shooting even though they kept telling me they don't photograph very well. . .I completely disagree.  The look extremely natural together.  I can't wait for their wedding day. . .Just around the corner. :-)  Thanks guys!

Izzie's First Easter Egg Hunt!






Izabella is my boyfriend's niece and is the cutest child I've ever seen. (I'm not bias or anything)  This was her first Easter Egg Hunt!  The whole time she would walk/run to the next egg saying "oooooh".  She would shake it and then put it in her basket.  It was really quite something to witness.  I was very thankful to have been there for it.  :-)

Easter Sunday!






I love to take photos of everything even though it may be from my iPhone and not the best quality.  I got a visit from the Easter Bunny on Sunday, early in the morning. (which is why I didn't have the energy to get up and get my pro camera set up)  First a trail of nuts led me from my bedroom to my front porch.  What could have left these nuts all over the place? Chip and Dale of course.   Once I got back to my bedroom, smiling of course, I opened the blinds to let the in the morning light.  An easter basket was hanging out side! Yea!  Laying among the Reester egg and Reester Bunny (made by Reese's) was my first Birdhouse!  A great Easter morning!  Later in the day we were visited by Wine Connoisseur Bunny (aka. My cousin Chris Clabough)  I hope your Easter was as fun and eventful as mine! 

Congrats Brad and Connie



This past Saturday, I actually attended a wedding as a friend.  I did not bring my big burtha of a camera, but instead used my boyfriend's little point and shoot.  Us being ill prepared, though, resulted in us taking only a couple of photos before the battery died.  No matter. . .I FINALLY got a photo of Chris in his full suit. (a photo that, in the past, was as mythical as his nick name, "Yeti")  YEA!  P.S. we had already been on the dance floor for a bit. . .hence the red face. 

Ella's First Fierce Photo Shoot






This was my first time photographing Ella.  She was too cute, however, her parents told me that she smiles and laughs all of the time. . .most of the day, in fact.  We finally caught a smile towards the end.  I told them that she was just being "fierce" as Tyra Banks always puts it.  I'm thinking she'll be a model when she grows up.  Even with out the smiles, she was precious.  I can't wait to photograph her again.
