You might remember reading this post a year ago …
This sweet little babe turned ONE on Tuesday the 9th!
That was taken the afternoon after she was born – CANNOT believe it has been a year!
On Sunday she had her 1st birthday party!
*M* and gramma …
HAPPY BIRTHDAY *M* – we love you dearly!
Saturday the 6th I had a wedding in Athens – which is always nice ‘cus I can stay with my parents.
My brother and his wife came out for the wedding since he was the best man – they arrived on Wednesday so we spent some extra time with them Friday before the wedding.
Derek showed me his gift from Travis – BATMAN CUFFLINKS! I was SO excited – all the groomsmen had different superhero cufflinks! When I met with Travis & Michaelia on Thursday she told me about the old car that they were riding in the reception to – SO excited again!
My brother gave such a touching best man speech – making me cry. Derek was “blessed” with two older sisters and Travis is one of the two people that he considers a brother. I was so proud of him.
Travis & Michaelia – thanks so much for allowing me to be part of your day!
That is my brother and his wife of a little over a year.
Thanks again Travis & Michaelia!
Take a look in the gallery – it is a little out of order as I update right now – but there are more pictures from the *R* wedding there!
Last week I had an engagement shoot with Billy and Kristen whose wedding I will be shooting next May!
We went up to Tanglewood on a foggy morning last week …
As always – check out the whole collection in the gallery!
Thanks again Billy & Kristen – can’t wait for your wedding – it will be here before you know it!
Aunt L came with me to Peggy’s wedding as my assistant – like I said before – Aunt L used to have Peggy in youth group so it was a great blessing for her to see the vows!
All the photos in this post are by Aunt L.
Thanks again Aunt L! It was a fun afternoon! Can’t wait to work Craig & Whitney’s wedding with you!
Sunday afternoon I had a few hours at a wedding to shoot. Peggy and I went to church together a LONG time ago when I was in middle school. We got in touch again through FACEBOOK and she wanted me to come to the wedding for a few hours to take “formal” portraits. My Aunt L was our youth group leader during that long ago time so she came along as my assistant!
The wedding was at Pinecroft Golf Course in Ridgebury – very close to my parents house!
Peggy and Ed had a BEAUTIFUL ceremony!
Peggy’s brother walked her down the aisle!
I love the look on Peggy’s face in that photo!
The bride’s son …
Peggy – thanks again for having us capture your day!
The lovely Jenna V was my assistant for the day – she went to high school with a TON of people in the wedding and at the wedding so it was cool for her to be there and have an “in” with everyone!
Thanks again Jenna – I love you dearly and I appreciate your help – you got some AMAZING shots!
All the photos in this post are by Jenna V!
Love that one!
Kidnapping the bride!
Thanks again Jenna!
Saturday brought a wedding in Troy with the lovely Jenna V!
The bride’s sister was in the Sechrist wedding (the photo that used to be my header) but she first heard of me through Jenna V! I have been so excited for this wedding! I knew quite a few people from the Sechrist wedding so it was nice to have a comfort level! I have a few more weddings with the same crowd of people coming up and am so excited about being familiar with everyone!
Jenna and I got to the church at 1 with the ceremony at 3 – taking most of the pictures we could before the ceremony. When we pulled up to the church there was a GIANT swarm of bees in a tree near where we wanted to shoot pictures – like nothing I have ever seen before.
We quietly avoided the bees and only had one incident where a bee got in the flower girl’s tulle of her dress.
What a BEAUTIFUL bride!
Melissa & Josh – thank you so much for having barden photography capture your day!
For the past three years I have written the names on the diplomas for NCA – I print off the names in a fancy font and then trace the name onto the diploma and write over the trace. Graduation was on Friday night and I finished the diplomas on Wednesday.
On Thursday the headmaster called me to see if I would do the photography for graduation since the usual photographer was out of town.
I took some quick candids at the end of the night.
I love this girlie! She is so sweet and caring and kind – I can’t wait to see what God has in store for her!
My former second shooter – ben v – a brother of the above mentioned sweetie!
*K* and *K* – this brother and sister hold a dear place in my heart!
