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!

Love at last…

SO, this has been a CA-RAZY summer! I have been so busy since the spring, that I am now the worst photographer blogger of all time! Well, I was not great to start, but I think this span of time between blog posts is a record for me! Among other things like losing 30 lbs, putting in a garden, raising 3 boys, seeking growth spiritually/mentally/physically, I have managed to book a full wedding season!!! And since I am so behind, and I am going to start blogging backwards. I will start with the most recent, and go back in time to when I started to let the entries slip.

First up is my latest wedding! Ben & Michelle finally got married after a long engagement! They are both super duper sweet, and I think they make a perfect match…

First of all, Michelle was very smart to hire a wedding coordinator! Some people have the ability to be the bride AND run the show, but most of us really should be hiring that job out to someone like Shana with Sheer Bliss Wedding & Event Planning. She did an excellent job, and I really enjoyed working with her! She was on top of it, day one.

Next, I have to give a little shout out to my neighbors, Elegant Catering! No seriously, they are my neighbors. The owners live about 3 houses down from my own. Anywho, the food was FABULOUS!

Congratulations Ben & Michelle, and thank you for letting me be a part of your special day…
