Thank you so much for a wonderful year!  I’m looking forward to all that 2010 has in store :-D

What an honor it was to photograph E&B’s wedding.  I was able to work with two VERY talented colleagues – Kimberly Hill, CPP of Bliss, who hails from Myrtle Beach, SC; and Carla Blankenship of Carla Blankenship Photography, who hails from Huntsville, AL.  Thanks ladies for all you did the day of the wedding!!!

The wedding went down in true storybook fashion.  Honestly, it was just like something out of a movie.  And if all brides and grooms were like E&B, I would do more weddings.  Seriously.  They are two of the kindest, most gracious people I have ever met.  I am still so humbled that they put their faith in me to photograph their wedding day!!!

It is absolutely impossible to show EVERYTHING I want to show on the blog :(  If I did, there would be ten pages of images.  ::sigh:: 

I still can’t believe how gorgeous her dress was!!!!

I had a blast yesterday E and B!!!  Here is just a sampling from your session…

 


Don’t they make a lovely couple?  

I will be one of the photographers at their wedding next May (yes, I’m doing ANOTHER wedding ::faint::)  We went to the BEAUTIFUL outdoor location where the ceremony will take place during our session yesterday.  I can only think of one word to describe it….WOW!

I cannot WAIT until your wedding day E and B!  It is going to be GORGEOUS!  Thank you so much for choosing me to be your photographer (even when you KNEW I had no experience with engagement photos!!!)  I’ll be in touch SOON!

Who could the mystery couple be?  You’ll just have to wait another day or two to find out!  (I’ve gotta’ sleep sometime, ok?)

I promise I’ll get a few more up as quickly as I can!

J&G, these will have to tide you over until December.  ;)

This is probably my favorite image from the entire day!

LOL!  But, the ceremony was LOVELY and I am so honored that I was asked to capture the day.  

I’m sharing just one for now, but I will add a few more over the coming days.

 J & G, I wish you all the best!  See you in December!!!
