Soaking up the sun light...

Pin It

May= weddings, 12 hour editing days, meetings with brides, family sessions and numerous graduations.  To say this month has been busy would be putting it mildly. But in the midst of all the craziness I took B.O.B.'s advise in his new song, So Good...

...I see us on a beach down in Mexico...

Andrea and Jay . . . A Savannah Wedding

Pin It
On a trip to visit Andrea's sister in Savannah, both Andrea and Jay fell in love with the historic city. Months later family and friends joined together in Savannah for a weekend to celebrate Andrea and Jay's love for each other.

This was a special wedding for me to photograph... Andrea and my sister, Carrie, have been lifelong best friends. Growing up I always loved to be included in whatever exciting adventures they were scheming. They were partners in crime and I was in awe of them and the fun pranks they pulled. So it was such an honor to be asked to photograph Andrea and Jay's wedding. It felt much like my own sister was getting married.

Savannah is a photographers dream... Moss covered trees, historic houses and countless parks. Andrea and Jay got married at Telfair Square. Here is a glimpse of their beautiful wedding.

 The bridesmaid dresses went so well with Andrea's dress... Simple and neutral! I couldn't get over how much I loved the flowers! Just had to show them off!

The girls road through the streets of Savannah to the wedding site in a carriage. Such a fun way to arrive!

 Each girl was given a broach for their gift and they were use to pin together their bouquets! Great idea!

The sun was just right in the sky after the wedding... casting a romantic glow on Andrea and Jay as they left.

Danny + Jessie | Engagement

Pin It
When I asked Danny and Jessie how they met, "Best friends who fell in love." Jessie was so cute and added, "My dad could't be happier!" Right away it was evident their love for each other was rooted in years of a deep friendship/relationship. They were friends in high school and then dated through college.

Both laid back individuals, totally in love, made for a really fun session. We spent the evening together at several locations, laughing, chatting and getting to know each other.  Just as the sun was setting we made our way to a field and captured my favorites from the session.

Bridal Sessions... And the lovely Jen Ancel!

Pin It
I'm blogging all things love and weddings this week to celebrate the start of my wedding season. Starting with Andrea and Jay's Savannah wedding this weekend I'll be on a whirlwind  of every other weekend weddings into July! Stay posted in the coming weeks for previews of the happy couples.

Starting off the celebration today I'm going to share a little about what bridal session are and share some pictures of a recent bridal session... Several of my brides this summer have chosen to add a bridal session to their wedding packages. I LOVE bridal sessions and I LOVE it even more when my brides add them to their package! Here's why: 

1. It's so versatile! Just the bride or bring the groom along too...Alli and Albert. Do it before the wedding after your hair/makeup test run or wait to come back from the honeymoon.
2. More pictures for your wedding collection that can feature additional locations, props and styles that you might not have had time for on the wedding day.  
3. And if not for any of the previous reasons... than just another chance for the brides to get all glammed up and wear their dresses. So much fun!

Jen Ancel, was married last summer to Matt on the sandy beaches of her home state, Florida.  This spring Jen brought out her dress for some pictures with fun accessories and a different location than her wedding. Here are some favorites from her session!

Love is in the air...

Pin It
I am gearing up for wedding season, which begins next weekend with a Savannah, GA wedding. My days have been filled meeting brides to discuss last details, ordering new camera equipment and my favorite...capturing the growing love of couples during engagement shoots.

Love is definitely in the air with these two...Christina and Tyler. I've know Christina since we were little girls, and it is so good to see her head over heals in love with Tyler. For the engagement shoot we spent the evening at Christina's family farm... a special place to her, and a photographers haven for locations!

I so enjoyed spending the evening with these two. Their love for each other is so evident and they both are extremely good looking making it really hard choosing my favorites. I am excited for Christina and Tyler's wedding this July and honored to be a part of their special day.

Nachos worth "flying" for!

Pin It
Meet the most amazing nachos ever! On a recent photography trip to Texas two of my clients suggested we stop so I could try their new favorite place, Yucatan Taco Stand. I am forever grateful to them... well, except for the fact they introduced me to my new favorite food that is miles away in Texas. :( They are so good I'd be tempted to hop on a plane just to get them!

For $8 you get this huge plate of nachos, covered in a garlic aioli sauce, a queso sauce, shredded veggies, cilantro, cabbage, queso fresco, and a huge serving of guacamole. Oh and to top it off... there is this sweet and spicy sauce at every table! If you are ever in the Fort Worth area you must visit, Yucatan Taco Stand!

The two fabulous girls, Cooky & Sam, who introduced me to my new favorite food!
