The Person

Well first of all, I try not to take myself too seriously, so it's hard for me to think about what I want to say about myself!  I grew up in Florida with a very large family.  My entire family has art running through their veins.  My grandfather was a professional photographer, Mom and Dad both have artistic talents, and all of my siblings have a knack for being creative one way or another.  so here I am, married with children and wondering how in the world I'm going to channel my passion for creativity into something beautiful, productive, fulfilling, and find joy all at the same time?  So, photography became the answer and a much needed outlet.

I love people, I love love, and I love adorable little baby fat rolls!  I have to be creating beautiful things at all times.  Though being a full time mother and homemaker takes up most of my time, I just can't keep myself from dreaming about being an amazing wedding photographer.

The Photographer

Over the past five years in the wedding industry, I feel like I have become a regular wedding junkie!  By recognizing the latest styles and trends, I am prepared to capture everything that is unique and fabulous at your wedding and wrap it all up into an amazing timeless package.  And that amazing package is the work of art you will walk away with when the day is all said and done.  How well do you want to remember it? 

Recently I have also reached one of my ongoing goals of being published in a national wedding magazine.  They are but two small pictures, but I am so blessed none the less (baby steps!).  You may recognize some images from Kyle and Christina's Wedding at Gorge Crest Farms in Town & Country Weddings, Fall 2010 issue.  I have also been featured in a few wedding inspiration blogs such as Style Me Pretty, Snippet & Ink, Style Unveiled, and Marry You Me!

Little brother gets married!

Well, it’s official, my first brother got married last weekend, and I couldn’t be more pleased with his choice in a wife :) They are such a sweet couple, and my new sister in-law is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. I think she is gorgeous! Well, the day before the wedding, we got to do a fun romantic session, and it was a good thing we did, because it stormed for most of the actual wedding day! Amazing. So, we got to play, and this session was particularly unique because we felt more free to experiment a little with it being our brother and all ;) Anywho, we had fun, and I think we got some great stuff for them!

Some getting ready…

Then the sprinklers went off on us by that fence and almost soaked us all! It was crazy, but after relocating, we got a few final shots…
