Ryan & Ashley are Married : Charlotte, NC Wedding Photographer

We started out Saturday morning with the clear skyline of Charlotte, NC!  It was the perfect morning to get out into the city, seeking out venues for later in the day, and taking in the spirit of our first wedding of the summer!

Several months ago we were contacted by a high school friend of mine who said that she mentioned us to a co-worker and they were interested in our photography.  I love shooting weddings for friends-of-friends because it is almost like we are connected before we even meet!  After several emails with Ashley she booked us!  And, we have been anticipating her wedding day ever since.  It was fun meeting the ladies at the Charlotte Marriott downtown…top floor no less!  Ashley was so calm and collected.  As the ladies arrived and the preparations began I could sense Ashley’s laid-back demeanor that would carry us all through the day.  Meanwhile, David was with the fellas at Ryan’s parent’s home…playing in canoes and laughing a lot I am sure!

We all met up at the Mint Museum of Art to celebrate their love!  I have edited through the first part of the day and could not resist sharing a few sneak peak images with you.  I will share the reception images as soon as I can!

Fridays LIVE!

I confess, I skipped a week!  Oh well, I figured that you all probably got the picture of what we were up to last week with Eric and Mary Frances.  See the postings below for more on that…

Last weekend was somewhat of a break.  I did however do the annual “spring cleaning” at our house.  With the pace of life right now in full gear, it was a welcomed cleaning weekend.  I have always said you can tell by my house and the level of piles how busy I am.  And, well, we had some major piles.  Piles of what? Well, I will leave that to your imagination! Ha-ha.  I did take a break to enjoy a lovely Braves baseball game, and tried to capture Perimeter Christian School singing the National Anthem.  I would not call it a big fat fail, but we were not allowed on the field for a better angle nor did the people standing in front of us move.  But, I got a few shots.  I did not feel very “professional” that night.  I DID however meet Thelma, the lady guarding the isle I wanted to go down, and she was a hoot.  She let me sit a while behind the dug-out.  That is cool right?  I was also mistaken for one of the people that take photos of people at the game (that could be a fun job).  After some minor confusion, and a little help from Thelma, I was not expected to take the random man’s photo.  But, I confess I said I would because I mean, that is what I do, and I had some business cards on me…

This weekend we are shooting our first wedding of the summer!  I cannot wait!  I hope that the rain holds off Saturday at 5pm in Charlotte, NC.  Can anyone help me with that?  I am sure it will be amazing either way, they always are!  Happy weekend y’all!

Eric and Mary Frances : Engaged (part two)

I have been waiting all day to show these photos…it was a long day…but I am so thankful to share a few images tonight!  I feel like I have been in a happy place for the past few days.  It is officially the start of our season and we have a full calendar for the next few months.  Praise God!  What a year!  Anyway, I could not be more happy to start with such an amazing couple.  You can tell they are very much in love, and are going to be very blessed in life together!  Like I said in the last blog – I was very happy to have their session in Roswell.  We headed to the Roswell Mill area for the second half of our time together.  You can tell it was a hot spot, I think we saw at least three other photo sessions going on at the same time.  I think when you see these images you will know why…it is such a sweet area of town.

I love how these two make each other laugh, how comfortable they are together, and their willingness to have a good time.

Eric and Mary Frances we cannot wait to celebrate with you all in July!  We had such a great time, and hope that you enjoy this season in life with each other!

Eric and Mary Frances : Engaged (Part One)

Sunday afternoon was SO amazing!  After having to reschedule with Eric and Mary Frances a few weekends ago due to the super cold and rainy weather that came through we were all excited to get out in the sunshine and take some photos!  We talked about a few different locations to meet up for their session and landed in Roswell.  Y’all know how much we love Roswell!  Yet, we have not had the opportunity to photograph anyone in our sweet town.  We began on Canton St. and made our way down side streets.  I totally appreciate their willingness to laugh and share that time with us!  This was just the beginning of our time together, I have one more location to share with you in the days ahead.  But, I could not wait to share these!

I cannot wait to share more with you….ohhh so soon!
