Sandy dropped in to help say, “I Do!”

For those of you on the Eastern coast…..you know exactly who Sandy is right about now.  Fortunately for us here in Charleston, we only got wind and rain from her….lots-o-rain.  Caroline, I’m not sure if you’re quite willing to believe it yet….but they do say that rain on your wedding day is ‘good luck’.  The […]

Happy Preschool Fall…Y’all!

St. Philips’ Preschool might be one of the sweetest, little schools around.  Lee and Angela have got the whole system down pat and it’s a great, downtown school.  Nice facilities, sweet teachers…..and lots of cute munchkins running around HAPPY.  It’s fun to see bicycles, strollers and dogs waiting in the breezeway while parents are inside […]

Three Amigo’s….

Happy 2nd Birthday to these cute little munchkins.  I met them about this time last year and it is SO FUN to see how much they’ve grown….who is chatty, bossy, funny or quiet.  Mama and Daddy are rock stars and juggle their little sippy cups and snacks with finesse  – and even commented that perhaps […]

Blast from the Past….

Years ago….before I got crazy with children…I was a paralegal.  I loved it – it was hard, stressful work with lots of deadlines and satisfactory completions.  One of the lawyer’s wives and I were pregnant at the same time….she was due before me….but went into labor a month early.  I, too, went into labor a […]

Happy 1st Birthday!!

This sweet couple…..came to me by another sweet couple (who will be up here soon….I promise…) but they called me in order to capture their boys at ONE and THREE.  I arrived at our agreed upon spot…..and luckily was a little early…..only to see a big, yellow school bus pull up and unload about 35-40 […]

It’s such a small world….when this sweet bride first contacted me – she said she was going to be in town on a certain date and I asked her to meet me at my church because I was there doing some work.  She asked where to meet…..and it turns out she used to be involved […]

Bury the Bourban!

Well…..wow.  So this is the calm, cool and collected bride……with the calm, cool and collected parents, bridal party, groom’s party, grandparents, guests, etc.  Couldn’t have been a more stress-free event.  The ceremony was in a quaint, little Episcopal church about an hour and a half away from Charleston.  Most of the guests….arrived by Durham SCHOOL BUSSES.

So much in common….yet sooo different!

Before my husband and I had children….I was always intrigued about the thought of having more than one child and seeing how different they would be.  I now know how crazy it is how three people can come from the same parents, same household….and each be their own little individual selves.  I can only imagine […]

Bridal Portrait….Doggies and all!

This is sweet, happy-go-lucky, laughing LEE.  I hope that I don’t jinx myself by saying this…..but in the years I’ve been shooting weddings…..I’ve never had a Bridezilla….not even close.  So I have to go on t.v. shows and imagination…but Lee is like the Anti-Bridezilla.  Laid back…..smiling…..she and her mother on the same page……awesome.  Here are […]

Ahhhh….Senior Pictures.

I can’t even start this post…..because after looking through a couple of these photos….well, let me back up.  Sweet K.D. contacted me to shoot her senior pictures – and I suggested she pull together some friends…..the idea being to get the ‘posed’ senior shots – while documenting some fun with lifelong friends.  So….I think to […]
