Matt + Lisa:: Engaged! {City Place, WPB}

Tonight is the last night we're in Florida, for now.  After rain and thunder all day we were afraid we'd have to cancel Matt and Lisa's e-session.  But, the skies turned blue and we set out to photograph one last couple.  My favorite from the shoot is Matt playing golf while Lisa sun bathes.  That picture says a thousand words, each of them were doing something they loved and we captured it in one shot.  We stayed to play on the golf course for a few extra shots and raced to City Place in West Palm Beach to finish the session off before the we lost the sun.

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!

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.

Update: Wedding Packages

July 1, 2010 I will introduce our new wedding packages.  Any weddings signed prior to that date will have the option to use our current packages.

The packages will continue to include our amazing Dream Albums & Dream Boxes.  These products are just too perfect to give up!  We are also adding a destination package for all you travelers.  I'm 100% positive  this will be a welcomed change and I am looking forward to posting all the details! ( Oh yeah, new packages means new brochures!  Fun, flirty and of course fabulous! )

One more development:  Eric Mack is now my primary second shooter.  His style + my style = harmony and there's no reason to mess with harmony, right?  :) Our work flow and ideas work well together.  In the event that he is already booked I have several wonderful photographers to call upon.

Stay tuned!


A little bit of this … A little bit of that …

My last two trips to Florida were selfish and I didn't do any sessions(But, we're allowed to be selfish sometimes... right?)!  I am planning a trip back down from May 21 to May 25 and I already have two lined up.  I will come fully prepared with lighting equipment for indoor shoots because we all know and love Florida's predictable weather! (Not) .... Book now or wait because this will be the last trip down there for a while. (Three trips in two months?  Seriously? .... I'm so lucky! )

EMP and I are collaborating for some crazy, insane newborn sessions.  My session yesterday inspired me to go after newborns and we've come up with some great ideas, props and prices!  Contact me to find out about the promotion.  We'd like to have newborns under 4 weeks but we're not too picky!

On another note, the charity bachelor & bachelorette auction scheduled for May 20th is lacking support.  We have two participants but we were shooting for 15!  I have talked to several people who have been interested but not registered (you know who you are!) So get on it and help us raise funds for our local heroes and their families!  If this event gets canceled there is a STRONG (very strong) possibility the event itself in September will also be canceled.  That will make it two years in a row that have fallen through due to lack of community support.  Please take a moment to go to the web site and read about the event and spread the word to all your friends and family.  www.portraitsforheroes.com and you can register to be in the auction at : http://portraitsforheroes.com/?page_id=96

And finally, I have to thank everyone for the lovely comments and compliments.  Word of mouth has been my best advertisement and I am so blessed and thankful for my clients, friends and family for helping me get this show on the road! <3 You all!


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:


March has been good!

I feel like I have a bunch of cheerleaders running around doing PR for me!  I've been very lucky this month and the hard work of my clients has not gone unnoticed.  If you have had or will have a session in March I will give you half off your next session. (Must be scheduled by May 31).  Just a way for me to say thank you to the great people I have been blessed to meet and photograph.

A promotion I am running now and will probably have for a while:  A client refers you to me and you book within 2 weeks of their session, you get $100 off the $250 session+cd package.

Get in touch with me asap if you plan to book in March... I am going on vacation March 27 to April 5th and I have a few more shoots this month before I go!

Thanks again!
