Rebecca's Bridal

Loved photographing Rebecca's Bridal portraits (which we had finished RIGHT before it rained!)  I had so much fun photographing Rebecca's wedding this weekend as well.  Can't wait to go through them!  :)

Kelli's Bridal

I loved Kelli's Bridals!  Such a beautiful bride!  :D

Jorge & Alex's Wedding Day

I didn't know Alex at all when we met at the coffee shop almost a year ago, but she was so sweet and easy to talk to and I loved just hanging out with her.  During her long engagement, we became friends and would end up meeting for coffee and talking about life and our walk with the Lord.  I felt so blessed to be part of her wedding day and meet her wonderful husband.  Their wedding was so sweet and special and definitely different for me considering it was almost entirely in Spanish!  There was just so much love.  I know they both are so blessed and will continue to bless others through their marriage :)  

Congratulations Jorge and Alex!  :D

Sarah's Bridal

Today I photographed Sarah and Matt's beautiful wedding!

So I've been dying to share her bridal portraits :)  
They were taken at my parents' house in the WINDY, FREEZING cold!!  But we toughed it out :)  And they ended up beautiful!  She did great!

Congrats, Sarah!

Emily & Jon Engagement

We had their engagement session in Charlotte at Freedom Park.  I've never even heard of Freedom Park so when I got there... I thought it was definitely a beautiful place for portraits.  And they had their puppy, Charlie come along too!  He was so sweet :)  

It was so much fun!  Beautiful spring engagement!

Kristen & Will Engagement

Kristen and Will were so fun to work with!  They wanted a little bit of a rustic feel so we thought this location would be perfect.  I can't wait for their wedding in October!

Congrats to the both of you!

Introducing... the New Red Tree Album!

I've been waiting anxiously to design/order a Red Tree Album and it's here!  My own sample!

Ashley & Zach's Engagement Session

                                                     

Ashley, Zach, and I met together for coffee to discuss wedding details before booking and I loved just hanging out with them. Then we scheduled for the engagement pictures to be just the following week!  I was so excited!

Ashley and Zach are having their wedding at this same location (at the farm) and it's a beautiful place!  I can't wait!  I think some people don't realize how flexible I can be with time when it comes to engagement and bridal sessions.  Especially when the couple is really into the pictures! And they definitely were!  

We started off in downtown Anderson and then moved the rest of the session to Zach's family's farm in Woodruff.  They also had gotten this beautiful antique victorian couch right before the session!  I told them that I was just eyeing that couch the other day!  

Even though it was SUPER windy on the day of our session..... I think we got some great shots and we all had so much fun :)

Enjoy!

Black & White Fashion

Ya'll.... I am super excited to show this recent modeling session.  

Mainly because it's different from my typical work. 

I worked with a male model when usually I work with females.
It's simple, classic black and white, (when I usually play with color) and I also played with off camera flash when usually I just use natural light.

Max really wanted to model some suits near a classy location, particularly near a pool for a summer look, so I searched some hotels around Greenville and luckily Embassy Suites was kind of enough to let us use their facility.

It was a fun shoot and I definitely would love to try something like this again!

Enjoy!!

Penny

I love Penny!  

I can tell already at 10 months that she's going to be a heartbreaker one day! ;)

Natasha was the very first bride I photographed in 2010.

And now I feel so privileged to be able to photograph her again... but this time with her 1st born!
