Beach sessions in Wilmington

I'm going to Wrightsville Beach July 28-30. If you are interested in trashing your dress, engagement photos or any type of photo session, contact me as soon as possible.
I will be doing a limited number of sessions!

The price of this session is $150 and it will include an 8x10 and two 5x7s.

Amanda & Jerimy's Engagement Session Part 1

I photographed Amanda & Jerimy yesterday. We only got to do a little bit of the session because it started raining on us! We are going to continue the shoot tomorrow. I hope we won't get rained out!! I was having a lot of fun--they weather felt good...the rain wasn't that bad. We were seriously taking pics while it was raining! You can't tell in the pics though!
Here a few for now!!

Kelly & Wayne's Portrait Session

I photographed Kelly & Wayne yesterday. They are already married, but wanted to get some pics of them together. They are having a belated anniversary celebration. They were going to celebrate by going out to a upscale, fine dining & romantic restaurant in Charlotte- The McNinch House. They decided since they don't do this often and they were getting dressed up, they should have their pics taken! I thought it was a super sweet idea.

Once you have children, you really never get anymore pics alone! What a great way to keep the romance alive and document another stage in your life! It's nice having your kids in the pic, but sometimes it is nice to just have some pics taken alone. Plus, you definitely can't do all those romantic shots that I love to take w/ the kids in the pics! LOL
Anyways, on to the faves of the shoot!

Didi & Donnie's Engagement Session

I got to meet and Didi & Donnie for the first time on Friday during their engagement session. Didi was so excited and up for anything! And when I say anything, I mean getting in a shopping cart that was on the side of the road! LOL
Needless to say, I had a great time working with them!! Except for when Didi was telling me the graffiti wall was no longer there. At the time, I didn't quite understand she meant it was totally gone until I saw for myself! I guess I was having a blonde moment! The graffiti wall has been demolished so that means no more pics there. It is just a pile of rubble and dirt!!!

P.S. I have a new idea in mind and my couple next weekend are willing to try it!! Hopefully everything will work out!!

Anyways--on to the pics!
Here are a few of my faves!


Her eyeshadow matched the building!! How cool and often is that???? Actually, now that I think about it, it matches my logo/website!! Pink & Green!


A silly one!!

Leslie & Gene's Trash the Dress session

I photographed Gene & Leslie on Sunday & Monday in Charleston, SC and Edisto Beach. We had a lot of fun trashing her dress! I think these sessions are so awesome. It is a great way to show your husband that you no longer need your dress. Plus, you will have pictures that you will treasure forever! Trashing the dress is not about destroying the dress, it is just about having a carefree attitude and not worrying about the dress. I'm sure Leslie will be able to clean her dress and you will never know where it has been!

If you want to do a session like this contact me!! I would love to do more of these! They are so much fun!

Lauren & Josh's Engagement Session June 10, 2007

I had a blast photographing Lauren & Josh today. Well, except for when we got kicked out of the water by the cop!! I wasn't in the water, but they were. They were barely in the water as you can tell by the pic below!! And we still got yelled out! Apparently, you can't get in the water at the park at Lake Norman!! How unfun!!! We still got some really cute pics though!!
Here are a few of my faves from the session!




Can you believe we got in trouble for doing this???????

Kourtney & Will's Engagement Session May 27, 2007

I photographed Kourtney & Will on Sunday. They are getting married in November. I'm looking forward to their wedding because not only are they gorgeous couple, but they are getting married at a beautiful church (Catawba College chapel) and then having the reception at the amazing Childress Vineyards.
Here are some of my faves from their session:

Leticia & Mike's Engagement Session

I photographed Leticia & Mike on Friday. They are a really sweet couple and you can tell how much they are in love. We went around to some of my favorite spots and got some cute pics of them. Mike had his 2 babies with him so we even got a few shots of almost the whole family--we were missing 1 though--Leticia's dog.
Here area few of my faves from their session!

Kimberly & Jason's Engagement Session May 20, 2007

I had one of the best times shooting Kimberly & Jason yesterday! We had a wet & wild time doing their shoot! They really were up for anything! I love couples like this! It just lets me do all kinds of cool and fun shots! When Kimberly had emailed me about setting up her shoot, she said they wanted to get in the water. Once she told me that, I was super excited and started planning! We got a lot of great shots! I was so excited about all of their pics!
During the first part of the "wet" session, Jason & Kimberly said told me they thought they were going to get more wet than they were!! LOL I didn't disappoint them!
Here area few of my faves!






Here is a nice shot for the parents!
