Weekend Overview
Whew! What a weekend. When we weren't shooting we were eating, sleeping or editing. But I have to admit I loved every second of it. We had zero cancellations and after seeing the images from each session I am so happy for that!
All my sneak peaks are posted on the blog and facebook! Go on over to Eric's blog and check for his images from the sessions. Thanks again to Eric for being a trooper; even though he wanted to be in Alaska all weekend we did our job and our clients are very happy. (The heat was BAD!)
We've received two testimonials back so far, here's what they're saying....
"Amy and I could not be happier with the way the shots came out. Jenn and Eric definitely captured the 'timeless' feeling that we were looking for. Amy and I tend to be pretty photogenic as it is, but shooting with Jenn and Eric really brought our personalities out and it is definitely portrayed in the pictures. During the shoot Amy and I were made to feel very comfortable and natural. We were definitely given just the right amount of direction to capture that playful nature that both Amy and I have in our daily lives. The end result came out far better than I could have imagined. Amy and I could not be happier with the final result."-- Danny + Amy
"Jenn and Eric met up with Evan and I, behind Island water sports in downtown Lake worth. I loved how well they communicated with Evan, and he had alot of fun posing for the camera. It was brutally hot outside so I was stoked that they got a bunch of shots in less than an hour. What I loved the most is that Jenn didn't hesitate to get down in the dirt to get the shots she wanted. And the best part is every single picture looks amazing. Thanks again!"-- Melinda
A few of my weekend fav's:
Danny + Amy:: Engaged! {Atlantic Ave}
Tonight we met with a wonderful couple, Danny & Amy. They've recently become engaged while on a trip to Orlando, Florida. They're such a beautiful couple; you can feel the love they have for each other by just being around them.
We started the session on train tracks and after a quick outfit change we headed downtown Delray Beach to Atlantic Ave, one of their favorite places to hang out. Eric and I could have, and would have, shot Danny & Amy all night if the sun would have stayed up. There are so many great locations and unique ideas we had to put on hold for now, but we also got a lot of great shots tonight. (We even took a short break for a few skating shots :) ) Danny and Amy congratulations on your engagement and thank you for allowing us to be a part of your journey. You compliment each other well and it's nice to see Danny so happy ;)
Now it's time for the sneak peaks!
Brook + Mike:: Married! {Poinciana Country Club}
Brook + Mike were joined in marriage tonight! The wedding took place at a Country Club in Lake Worth, FL where Brooks grandparents live. Congrats and may you share many years of love and happiness. Here are the sneak peaks, more to come over the next several weeks:
Lauren & RJ:: Married! {Ballantyne Hotel}
Congrats to Lauren & RJ. They had a beautiful wedding at the Ballantyne Hotel in Charlotte, NC. It was the kind most girls can only dream of. The ceremony was right off the 18th hole; where you had a view of a fountain, the hotel and the green. Cocktails and appetizers were served following the ceremony while we got to play with the wedding party. Finally, the reception. A wonderful meal was served, family & friends danced and laughs were had by all. It wasn't the women that fought over the bouquet, it was the men that fought over the garter!
Overall, such a beautiful event and we are glad we could be a part of it. Again, congrats to you, Mr. & Mrs. RJ Waite. May you have many years of laughter, happiness and love.
Matt + Lisa:: Engaged! {Bahama's}
My brother and I planned a secret for the cruise to the Bahama's. He wanted to pop the question to his girlfriend, Lisa. So conveniently, I told her I wanted to add additional images to my 'couples portfolio' and we would be shooting some pictures on the beach. No big deal, right? Well, not until Matt got down on one knee. She said yes! It was pretty awesome to be there for the actual moment, photographing it for them so they can always remember it. Congrats to you, Matt & Lisa. Can't wait to do your Bridal Portraits, Lisa. And... Eric will be photographing their wedding, whenever it may be.
Lake Lure Wedding Photographer | Love @ Lake Lure
I shot t a beautiful Lake Lure wedding. You all remember Lake Lure from the moving Dirty Dancing? It's even more beautiful now. The wedding took place under a gazeebo right off the lake. The weather was perfect and the bride was beautiful. Congrats to Andrea & Justin, I hope your love and devotion for each other grows every day! Here's a sneak peak:
Trash The Dress… Military Style!
In November 09 I went with a group to the Marine Ball in Charlotte, NC and the idea of a Marine style trash the dress was discussed. We headed out to Campbells Covered Bridge and shot away... it was 35 degrees outside and unfortunately it cut our trash the dress session short but after a quick outfit change we were ready to go for round two. Here's a few from the session:
A Love Like Katie & Jamie
We all grow up watching fairytale love which we later come to believe it only happens in Hollywood. Well, it's not true. In the short time that I've worked with Katie & Jamie my belief that fairy tales don't happen has been dismissed. They are perfect for each other. Jamie adores Katie and looks after her well being even with the smallest things. Much love and blessings to you, Mr & Mrs James Leenman.
Katie & Jamie
Clint from C&C and I had the pleasure of photographing the beautiful Katie for her bridal session a few weeks back; downtown Greenville never looked so good! She was so much fun and willing to try anything we threw her way. Here are a few of my fav's from the shoot (you will also see similar images on the C&C site)
And today, Clint and I had a boudoir session with Katie & Jamie. It was boudoir with a twist by having him there and I kind of liked it better! Due to the intimacy of the session I will only post one photo. Katie & Jamie are getting married Dec 30th and Clint and I are very excited to shoot their wedding. Congrats to you both, you're a fantastic couple and perfect for each other!
