I just redid the way my RSS subscription works so I am not sure if that effects those of you who are currently subscribed to my blog or not. You may want to check and make sure you are still getting updates, or you may want to go ahead a resubscribe. Thanks so much for all the support and encouragement you all offer. I appreciate it so much!
A few days before Christmas I got to travel to Mississippi to photograph the wedding of some fellow Freed-Hardeman University students. My brother, Than, was actually in the wedding, so that was fun because we got to road trip together. Than and I got to know Michael (known better by his friends as “Watson”) when we all studied abroad together in Europe a few years ago. I hadn’t gotten to meet Stephanie in person until we got in town for the wedding but she’s great…so easy going and fun. Her uncle has a soybean farm so we got to use his field for the wedding party shots which was so much fun, especially because the lighting was awesome and clouds were rolling in to darken the sky a bit.
Also, Stephanie and Michael love vintage, whimsical things so that was the theme for their wedding. Keeping with the theme, I processed some of their photos to have an antique look. Thanks you two for letting me photograph your wedding…and I hope you are staying warm in IOWA!

Stephanie and Michael wanted to have a moment to get to see each other before we started the photos of the wedding party.
I always love these times because I get to capture their sincere expressions!
When I realized three of the five guys had been in karate at some point in their lives (actually, all black belts if I remember correctly), I decided we should have a little fun with it!
Michael’s face cracks me up in this picture every time!
Something was really funny apparently…
LOVED these wedding cake toppers!!
The groom’s cake was a surprise…and Michael really liked it, obviously.
I couldn’t decide on my favorite ring shot so I just decided to post both.

I said I’d eventually post a photo of the Christmas present I gave my parents when I could make it back over to their house and take a quick picture of it, so here it is…
As a Christmas present for my parents I wanted to have some prints done of my brother, my sister, and me and put them in a nice frame. I’ve done a couple of photo shoots of my sister so I had some good ones of her, and my friend Amanda had taken some fun ones of me but I didn’t have any good pictures of Nathaniel. So, when he came home to visit for Christmas we went to Charlotte’s art district for a photo shoot. Even though it was FREEZING cold we had a lot of fun and I hope to go back to the area for more sessions in the future. Here are a few I took of Nathaniel (we call him Than). I forgot to take a picture of the frame once I had it finished so I’ll get a shot of it next time I’m at my parents house and post it then. They LOVED it! 🙂
Last month I photographed a fashion show/anniversary party for the Dolce Lusso Salon here in Charlotte. While there I also did a photo shoot for an upcoming full page ad that the salon was going to have published in Skirt magazine. Here’s the final product!

I just had a minute to look over your pics. I forget just how wonderful your work is and how you are so talented. You have such an “eye” to catch those special moments in time. I want to have some kind of special occasion just so you can take all the pictures and make us all look gorgeous! Keep up the good work and God bless! (I know your parents LOVED their photo gift!)
