Ifeoma + Chi // Austin Wedding

Ifeoma and Chi are back! If you haven’t had the chance to see their Houston engagement shoot, you can do so here… but don’t take too long because their wedding was even bigger and better!

I had the immense pleasure of traveling back to TX, visiting my family, eating incredible Tex-Mex and BBQ, and even reconnecting with very old friends… all in in the name of shooting yet another friend’s wedding! I admit, I can be a bit spoiled at times.:)Ifeoma and Chi were married in Austin with both the rolling hills of Westlake and the downtown/UT campus area as the backdrop for their wedding day. It was truly an incredible day!

Lauren V. // Senior Class of 2012

The bells have rung, lights and stockings have been put back away and ornaments won’t dawn our living rooms for another 11+ months. Now all there is to do is bundle up and bear mother nature’s… 60° weather? OK, so if you’re like me, you may be slightly disappointed in the severity of this year’s winter. But cheer up! At least you can count on this blog to keep delivering warm and fuzzy pictures to keep your spirits up.:)After all, since when has the weather been predictable anyway?

It certainly wasn’t for this shoot! Introducing Lauren. It took 2 tries and countless weather checks to pull this off… but boy, oh boy, was it worth it. We were able to use the Atlanta History Center’s Swan House as our backdrop for Lauren’s senior portraits. Let’s just say all good things come to those who wait! Here are a few:

Courtney + Herbie // Fayetteville Wedding

Happy Monday, blog readers! We’re right in the thick of this holiday season with edits up to our ears, more exciting news to share and only 6 days left before Christmas! All that said, I hope this time of year finds you well.:)So how about starting this week off with a beautiful wedding post?

Meet Courtney and Herbie! I had the privilege of meeting these two just a few months ago, and let me tell you, they’ve got southern hospitality written all over them. No joke. Sitting down with Courtney and her mother over coffee felt like catching up with old family friends I haven’t seen in a while. That is a rare quality! Throw in Herbie’s non-stop humor and you’ve got the makings for a pretty incredible couple. Here are some of my favorites from their wedding:

The Jerome Family // Senoia Portrait

Meet the Jerome family! This group should win an award for braving a chilly afternoon shoot with not one… not two… not even three… but four children (the youngest being 6 months old)! How amazing is that?? And not only that, they made it look easy. We had so much fun exploring around Senoia and goofing off that, well, they made my job pretty easy too.:)

Here’s just a small sampling of what turned out!
