Congratulations, Mitzi and Steven!

Wendy and I had a great time photographing Mitzi and Steven's wedding yesterday in Concord! They were definitely a fun group! Here are a few moments from their big day....

What a beautiful couple!

Aren't Mitzi's nieces just adorable? 

Now this is a group who can stop traffic! 

Hannah's Bridal Session Revealed!

While I was photographing a wedding in Concord today, Hannah and Matt were getting married in Raleigh! Now that she's a married woman, I can finally show you some photos from Hannah's bridal session on Valentine's Day! Hannah is a classic beauty, and such a sweetheart! She was a trooper through the cold weather, and showed off the beautiful smile all day! Thank you to Windsor Homes for letting us shoot in your beautiful model home! Congratulations Hannah and Matt! I wish you all the best in your future together! 

My Little Guy

It's really hard to believe that T is pushing the big "4"! It's to the point that, although he's the youngest of my 3 boys, it sounds funny (even to me!) to call him "the baby" now. He is a gamer (go Lego Star Wars!) and he looks up to his big brothers, always wanting to be like them. He loves his preschool (once you can get him in the door!) and he cherishes his playdates with his best friend each week (and all the extra days we can fit in!). He's sweet and funny, gives hugs generously, and loves to make me laugh with his silly faces. I love this little guy with all my heart. We had an impromptu little session today, so I thought I'd share....

Hannah and Mickey Get Married!

I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Hannah and Mickey's wedding ceremony this evening! It was a sweet ceremony, and the love between these two is obvious to everyone. They are a beautiful couple with such a sweet family, and I look forward to their family session next month! Have a blast in Costa Rica you two!

Baby R!

Jonah's EB Auction!

I really, honestly can't fathom that there are people out there who don't know about Jonah and his story, or who haven't read Patrice's blog (Patrice is Jonah's absolutely amazing mom). But if you haven't, he's a little boy who is really worth getting to know! Jonah has EB... and because I stink at trying to explain things, I'll send you over to read Patrice's Blog, where you can learn all about it. EB is SUPER rare, and we are fighting for a cure. In celebration of Jonah's first birthday (which many EB babies don't make it to), Matt and Patrice and tons of their closest friends are pulling together to have an auction to support DebRA (an organization to support EB patients and their families and research for a cure).  There have been LOTS of awesome items donated (including a photo session and photo package from Photographic Memories!), and they welcome your bids on these items! All of the proceeds are going to directly to DebRA. I hope you'll all participate in this worth event!! Check it out here.
