This little miss will be graduating oh so soon. And as all seniors do, Allie wanted her senior pictures taken. But she wanted something other than the typical, so that’s when she contacted me. We met last week late one afternoon before the wind and rain showed up. I love doing senior sessions, so if you are a senior or you know a senior who needs pictures…come my way !
Newborns are delightful. Nolan was barely two weeks old when I photographed him a few weeks ago. I love doing these sessions and capturing them when they’re still so tiny, and still so new to the world.
This time, it’s true. It really is back. I found out here ! Oh my, this is so exciting. No more bidding wars on Ebay. No more fearing my supply will run out. This is a big deal, folks.
Two weekends in a row two of my good friends were married. After Angel & Zak came Lynn & Courtney. These two had a small ceremony of about fifty of their closest family & friends at Sidecut Park. It was a beautiful afternoon, one of the chilliest we had had at that point, but still a beautiful day. After the ceremony we did a few portraits at the park (I love the autumn colors!) and then we did a few downtown before we went to their wedding celebration dinner at Spaghetti Warehouse. I love that I have such beautiful & creative friends who have non-traditional but still unique & special weddings. (Side Note: Lynn made both of her hair pieces out of vintage materials. She’s a crafty lady !)
Congrats Lynn & Courtney, I love you and I hope you are enjoying the Bahamas ! 
…Not to be bias, but outdoor weddings are my favorite !
I have been really excited to share this wedding. These two love birds were finally married on a beautiful autumn Sunday afternoon. This wedding was special in so many ways. They are close friends of my husband & myself, so when they were looking for a place to get married, we suggested they get married at the same place we did just a little over five years ago…my mother in law’s beautiful property out in Whitehouse. So they did ! Their wedding was filled with so many lovely details (which I already oooohhed and ahhhhed here)… so very vintage, and so very Zak & Angel. I was happy to be able to be apart of something so creative & so beautiful.
I got a new printer/scanner today so you can be sure I’ll be posting some of my film photos from time to time. I still love to shoot film. Polaroids are my favorite. (Scanning photos is less than perfect quality, although I think that’s part of its charm.) Anyway… here’s a family polaroid of the husband, myself & the newest member of our little family, Murphy. Murphy Oliver, Mister Murphy. He answers to all of the above.
Coming soon two fabulous & beautiful weddings to share….
I am really excited to get this wedding up on the blog. Oh my, so beautiful. Here are just a few reasons why this union of my two beautiful friends was so unique & oh so special:
…they were married at the same place my husband and I were…my mother in law’s beautiful property !
…it was a lovely mix of the bride & groom’s closest friends & family
…they had a potluck dinner & home brewed beer
…Angel used peacock feathers as her inspiration for colors & decorations
…they had a polaroid photobooth for the guests
So, all of the above created a, well, really incredible wedding. So here is just a little peek:
…Incredible evening light for the portraits, it couldn’t have been more perfect. More to come !
John & Jessica were married last weekend at the beautiful Rosary Cathedral, and had their reception at Space 237, a local art gallery. I really love the idea of having a reception in such a unique and urban space, it’s becoming my favorite type of place to shoot. John’s family owns the local Le Petit Gourmet restaurant & catering company, so the food was amazing…a delicious selection of, well, gourmet appetizers. And instead of a wedding cake, John & Jessica opted for a cupcake tower….my favorite ! I really enjoyed being a part of such a unique & beautiful wedding.
I have gotten to know Meggan over the last few years since she’s the one who keeps my hair looking fabulous. (She works at Shamas…go see her, she’s got talent with those scissors.) Anyway, when she asked me to photograph her wedding, of course I was so happy to accept. These two love birds are getting married this time next year. An autumn wedding…how lovely !
Enjoy all the coziness & color this season brings. It is always bittersweet to bid summer goodbye, but autumn has a beauty all its own.
