Julie & Jeffery - Memphis!

Julie and Jeffery convinced me it was a short walk from Clemson to Memphis.
I think maybe I'll Google it next time :)

This was a fun shoot! Two days to shoot and just hang out and take in the city.
And Julie and Jeffery were the perfect hosts. They shuttled me back and forth to my hotel and showed me the finer points (and less refined areas) of Memphis. We had time the second day to check out where Jeffery proposed to Julie; a huge public park where they brought out their dogs for some play time.
Then it was off to Graceland!
Even if you're not a huge Elvis fan you really ought to check out Graceland if you get the chance.
If you don't find it cool you'll at least find it interesting. I'm somewhere in the middle :)
And then they invited me to join them for Trivia Night with their group of friends.
A fun way to cap off a fun trip!

And FYI: James Stewart was the highest ranking military officer to win an Academy Award.
A Brigadier General in the United States Air Force Reserve!




















Self portrait in Elvis' staircase leading to his basement. The guy liked mirrors.


Trivia Night!

Misty, Sandra & Marita

Misty, Sandra and Marita made the drive out from Virginia Beach to Asheville just to shoot with me! How cool is that?!
This was a fun switch from the structure of a wedding day.
We grabbed some lunch and then drove around coming up with ideas for shots and wondering if the rain would cooperate with us!
Lots of shootin' - lots of outfit changes - and lots of fun!

Todd & Wendy's Wedding

Following closely on the heals of my last post - it's Todd & Wendy's wedding!
The wedding was the very next day after all :)

My second shooter this weekend was April Poston. April and I also met while stationed in Germany.
She and her husband were stationed just down the road from where Todd & Wendy were getting married.
Very cool - Sweet pictures all weekend and a chance to meet up with a bunch of old friends!

Todd & Wendy's engagement shoot

I'm so happy for Todd & Wendy (and Logan!)
I smiled the whole time I was editing these shots.
Todd's been a good friend since we were stationed together in Germany.
Two days to catch up in Florida was much too short!
We only had the day before the wedding to pull off an engagement shoot which transitioned into a shrimp boil party at the beach house!
Waiting on the shrimp, Todd used his celebratory cigar to pull off a pretty good Clint Eastwood!

Blake & Jennifer - Montreat and Bridals

Here's the second engagement shoot I did with Blake & Jennifer. We met out in Montreat, North Carolina for a much warmer round of shooting than the first time around! A few weeks later Jen and I met at Asheville's Botanical Gardens to shoot her bridal portraits.
Blake & Jennifer were married this past weekend so now I'm safe to put a few of the bridals online :)
