Miss Allison.

Friday I did a shoot with lovely Allison! Her mom was kind enough to do my new logo. Allison was a perfect angel to work with, she did everything I asked of her. Here are just a few of my favorites!

Hilary and Adam ~ Wedding

This past weekend I had the pleasure of starting off my wedding season with Hilary and Adam's Emerald Isle wedding. I couldn't have asked for a more welcoming family! The weather was perfect as well as the wedding. Here are a few pictures from the day.

Here's one of Hilary's bridal portraits I've been waiting to show!

I think makeup is one of my favorite times!
All the bridesmaids had one of a kind handmade necklaces that were fabulous!
I just love this shot, it's a fun take of the boutonniere.


All the hands it takes to get the bride dressed just in time to walk down the isle!

A beautiful toast given by Hilary's grandfather.
A perfect first dance. This is one of my favorite shots from the day.

Stacey Class of '08

Monday I had the pleasure of doing senior portraits for the lovely Miss Stacey. She was adorable and I am thrilled with how they turned out! I barely did any photoshopping on any of these just a few, I'm running around like a chicken with my head cut off getting ready to leave for E.I. for a wedding this weekend! My blog isn't translating the color right for some reason so they may look a little off.

I'm not a big fan of cap and gown pictures but I thought this one was really great!

Obviously I did photoshop this one! I love the antique look!

I did photoshop this one with an antique tone on top of the color, I like how it turned out.

Notta nothing with her eyes or anything! Aren't they gorgeous? Making all of us brown eyed girls jealous!

Great Strides

This weekend was the Cary Great Strides Walk. It went really well, they even raised over $100,000! We had our Sophie's Hope team again this year. Sophie came and was as stylish as normal! Here are a few quick shots I got before, during and after the walk.

I met up with Jeremy and Carrie this past Saturday in Downtown Raleigh to do their engagement shoot. I must say they were one of the easiest couples to work with. I always want my bride and grooms to have a good time and for the most part pretend I'm not there, and that's what they did. They couldn't keep their eyes off each other it was adorable! I can't wait for their June wedding!

Melissa and Trey

Yesterday Adam and I finally made it down to Wilmington to shoot my best friend Melissa and her fiance Trey. We were supposed to do it last weekend but there was a festival so we had to wait. I was very nervous to see the out come b/c Melissa and I went to photography school together, it's always scary photographing another photographer. Here are some of my favorites, Melissa is so very photogenic so it was hard to pick just a few!

My favorite from the day.

It's been way too long!

Needless to say I am waaaaay behind on my blogging! Appropriately today I'm blogging about food. Today I am starting the Daniel Fast, all I'll eat for 2 weeks is fruits, veggies, beans, and nuts. I'm eliminating all artificial anything from my diet and eating only things from the ground. This is going to be tough for me because I pretty much live on processed foods and have never done a strict diet. I'll keep you updated on how starving I am and my outcome!

So last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing the Cystic Fibrosis Master Chefs event. They had 6 that's right folks 6 courses and amazing appetizers that night. It was a great event and I know it raised lots of money for CF. Here are a few pictures from the night.
