Mary's Cottage Greenville Wedding | Kelly + Michael

You know what I realized? Kelly and Michael's wedding at Mary's Cottage this past weekend was my 100th wedding. That's pretty dang special. You know what's even more awesome? I keep on seeing new things at every wedding I go to. Take for instance the fact that Kelly and Michael's wedding was the very first wedding I've photographed where the minister asked for the rings and... one was missing. This was of course followed by Kelly's mom running upstairs to frantically search for it. After a very uniquely awkward (but entertaining) 5 minutes, she arrived back, ring and hand, and the ceremony continued. It's times like this that make every wedding a new adventure, even after photographing 100 of them.

With that little piece of excitement out of the way we spent some time exploring Falls Park, high-fiving strangers on main-street, and catching up with guests for some drinks at Smoke On the Water just a block away. Thanks again for having me there Kelly and Michael! I had a blast and you were both so much fun to capture!















































































Thanks again guys!

Ceremony: Mary's Cottage
Flowers: Bride
Officiant: Brenda Owens
Afterwards: Smoke on the Water + Lazy Goat

Pretty Place Chapel Proposal | Weston + Laura

I'm pretty sure proposal shoots are quickly becoming some of my favorite shoots ever. Maybe it's because I get to act like a hitman, hiding out and waiting for my unsuspecting victim... Ok that's a little creepy. But seriously getting to hide out and capture such an incredible life moment is just exhilarating.

Weston and I had been talking about his plans for a few weeks now. Pretty place chapel, tons of candles, sunset. Deb and I arrived early to setup the 50 candles spread all over the chapel. Laura was to be blindfolded, going to "somewhere special" in the mountains for their 4th Anniversary. Little did she know Weston had the whole thing planned down to the smallest details... like making sure her best friend took her for a manicure the day before (seriously what guy thinks like this!!). As he slowly guided her down the stairs and got down on one knee, Laura took off her blindfold...




































































Thanks so much for having us there Weston and Laura! We had a blast!!

January Engagement Session | Kristin + Sean

It's always an exciting day when a dog comes on a photoshoot. It's like they have no idea what the thing in my hands is. They either disregard it, or they want to lick it. Some even seem to get it and just stare into it. Like Kristin and Sean's dog Leo. I'm pretty sure there will be a special place in dog heaven for these canines.





























Thanks so much for having me guys! Have fun in Vegas in May!
