4th of July Fireworks, UNC Chapel Hill Stadium

I have never really been to a fireworks show like I did this past 4th of July. Held at the UNC football stadium, it was definitely not your average backdrop. The place was packed though! What a cool idea!





Love these fireworks!

Fourth of July: The food, family, fun

I love Fourth of July. I pretty much love any day that is an excuse to hang out with good friends and consume a lot of food. Here are some pictures from the day!

So much awesome fruit

Horses, Jumping, Sunshine

My cousin has a way with horses. Somehow she can figure out how to make them run, stop, jump, and even behave from time to time.

While I was up visiting last weekend, I'd figure I would tag along and watch her in action. Here are a few of my favorites from the day!

I wish I was that flexible!

Sneak Peak

I know, I know I've been posting really slow lately. Between getting settled, editing weddings, and buying a house I've been totally swamped! Things should calm down in the next couple weeks though and I'll be back to my usual pace!

Anyways, here is one of my favorites from a wedding I got the privilege to shoot a couple weekends ago. I just love the expression of true joy on her face!

Happy 4th!

Going to be traveling up to Raleigh Durham to visit my aunt and friends this weekend for the 4th. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Edisto Beach Island

Last weekend my girlfriend decided to take me on a little adventure for my belated birthday. We headed off to this remote little island just 45 minutes south of Charleston, SC. Edisto Island is one of the only islands still inside a national forest, and that means the trees look really awesome.

She wanted to surprise me with a great place to take some pictures, and WOW she was right! Sunlight, blue skies, palm trees, warm ocean, crabs, black headed seagulls, twisted trees. I took a ton of great photos during the day but here are a few of my favorites!























It's a good day to be a crab



It's a better day to be a seagull

Early Morning Drive

A few weeks ago I got up early to do some driving through the mountains of West Virginia. Aside from some super fun road, the scenery was absolutely awesome! Here are some of my favorites!





One of the longest arch bridges in the world


This is one of my favorite images so far this year!






Through the tunnels












So beautiful

Z4 in the Fog

This is probably one of my favorites automotive shots... ever. I just had to pull over.


This was shot at 6:30am during a foggy morning in West Virgina. I have a few more shots to go through from this same setting so stay tuned!

Tree Lined Road

Wow, I had a chance to go on some crazy adventures this weekend. I love South Carolina more and more everyday. Here is a teaser!

New House!

Well I bought a house! After looking for over a month, I've finally decided on one here in Greenville. It's a little big for me (what do I need with 4 bedrooms!) but I'm sure I'll grow into it. Needless to say I'm really excited! I should be closing in about a month. Here are a few pictures!
