Towana and Allen's Wedding

We see a lot of emotions when we attend/work weddings and I would have to say that this wedding was quite an emotional wedding. The love felt from Allen as he wept during their vows showed how strongly he cherishes their bond. The look of his face as she walked down the aisle to one of his favorite songs was just priceless. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of their wedding and wish them a blessed future together. Special thanks to family members who assisted with the wedding coordination - staying organized with a wedding party of 20 people is not always easy.

Sarah and Josh's Engagement Session

We often work with people who claim they aren't photogenic. My goal by the end of the day is to show them that with a couple smiles and some fun, they will begin to think differently. Cole and I recently worked with Sarah and Josh at the Fort Story lighthouses and beach (if you have never been there, take a trip out there..it is awesome). I knew that Josh wasn't big into pictures and I was going to change that...at least for that day. After it was all said and done, I think the pictures speak for themselves...I don't see any non-photogenic people in these photos. I appreciate their patience with the "humid" lighthouse conditions and the warm weather. I truly had fun with Josh and Sarah and wish I could be there for their wedding. I would have loved to see how the dancing lessons turned out.

Maddy and Jordan - Almost 1

Well, I bought a new lens and wanted to test it out. I figured that Maddy and Jordan would be the perfect models for breaking in my new lens. Gosh, it's hard to believe that they are both almost at the 1 year old marker! The results are below....

Maddy wasn't very excited......every kid has their bad day.......

buuuuut eventually she cheered up....

Jordan did OK at first. No big smile, just the "What are you doing!?!?" stare.

Then it was snack time for Jordan and he gave me the "face" when I took pictures of him eating......

(sigh......) Such a successful test shoot. I still love them though...
