Justin & Britt | Wedding

This past weekend Eric and myself had the opportunity to capture Justin and Britt's very special day. I have known these two lovebirds since high school and once they started dating I knew they would end up getting married. There wedding took place May 12, 2012 at the Muse Fire Hall in Muse. Both Justin and Britt are firemen/woman and they did an excellent job tieing that in to the details of there day. I absolutely loved the firetrucks as the backdrop for there ceremony.

Justin and Britt,
Thank you so much for allowing me to capture your special day. It was a blast! I wish the two of you all the happiness in the world today and many days to come!

Styled Bridal Shoot

As many of you know I have the opportunity to see the wonderful Jasmine Star in DC a few months ago for a wedding photography workshop called The Fix. Ever since I stepped out of the room of the workshop my mind has been non stop with ideas and inspiration.

To get one idea out of my mind and actually accomplished,  I planned a styled bridal shoot.  What is that? For those of you that are not sure it is a photo shoot completely set up by a photographer. Everything from models, locations, hair and makeup,  clothing the whole "sha-bang".

Last weekend I spend the whole afternoon with the beautiful Kaly. (I'll be photographing her actually wedding in just a few weeks!! CAN'T WAIT ) We had 2 dresses, 2 locations, 2 bouquets and lots of ideas for the day. After walking for what seemed like 3 miles, getting our feet dirty, being attacked by bugs and wondering why there was a random rooster walking around I would say we go some pretty awesome shots.

Before you see any of the STUNNING photos I would like to send out a few thank yous.

Kaly- Thanks for being my fabulous model for the day. I can't to capture every moment of your special day! On a side note I have asked at least 3 different people if we eat roosters and I have yet to get an actual answer. Haha

Hakeem- Thank you for being my assistant for the day. And "finding the light" I hope you get back into photography soon!!

A special thanks to Julie Gondringer for allowing me to borrow her actual wedding dress.

Malone Flower Shop for the bouquets.

And last but not least... Erica from B&S Hair for styling Kalys hair.

ENJOY!!

Nicole | Senior Portraits

Since I just started blogging all of my sessions this past year I thought it would be fun to post some of my sessions from last year.  From babies to seniors you will get to see it all.

Meet Nicole. She is a 2012 Senior From McGuffy Highschool. Only a few months left of her senior year and I'm sure she is excited to be done. Last time I got to talk to her she was planning on attending a cooking/business school! (Maybe she can teach me a thing or two in the kitchen!)

Nicole, I had such a great time during your photoshoot! You are such a beautiful talented girl I know you will go far!  I wish you all the best in your future adventures. Reach For The Stars and Follow Your Dreams! <3 Susan
