San Diego Trip

November 30, 2008

Gosh!!! It has been awhile and so much to post! I didn’t even post half of the things I wanted to post before heading out on my trip to Cali!!! Ã‚Â What a gorgeous state!!! I have a ton of pics and will share some of the highlights of my trip in the coming weeks. Ã‚Â I hope that you all had a great Thanksgiving!Ã‚Â

Here are a few pics from the workshop that I attended in San Diego. Eileen was an awesome model. Super photogenic! She is a student who heard about the workshop and volunteered to be one of our models. Here are a few of my favorites that I edited at the airport and during my plane ride home!Ã‚Â

At the workshop we all had to submit our favorite image of the day, and I entered this one for day one, and it was chosen as the best overall photo of day 1…. and I won a shootsac and cover!!!! What a wonderful surprise! I actually won the cover that I wanted to get for Josh!

Stay tuned for more posts in the next few days… Off to watch the Steeler game with hubby! I surely missed him!

Therol + Alex…. and San Diego!

November 17, 2008

Hello all! I am here in Charlotte, NC getting ready to board my plane to San Diego, but had one last post to complete before I head off to the Love Affair Workshop!!! I can hardly believe that it is already here! I am going on about 3 hrs. of sleep… on top of several other days of minimal sleep…. but, I am so excited that I don’t think it will even hit me! I will be in San Diego until Friday and then will be driving the coast with my friend Meg… and returning to San Diego on Thanksgiving to fly home! It will be fun and full of adventure… I will be taking tons of photos so expect to see some awesome shots of my trip when I return…. as well as several other sessions that I have yet to blog! So much going on. Business is awesome! Thanks everyone for your patience!

Ok. Now to Therol and Alex. They met in Hawaii and then eloped, so they never had the chance to really have wedding photos so we had a portrait session at Centennial Park in Columbia… We had so much fun! They are so cute!!!! And the fall colors were amazing!!!!!

Katie + Drew

November 14, 2008

Katie and Drew got married at the end of October at the First Unitarian Church of Baltimore and had their reception at the George Peabody Library. Ã‚Â It was a gorgeous wedding!Ã‚Â

I showed up at the Lord Baltimore Radisson Hotel ready to shoot…. but locked my keys in the car (while it was running!). Ã‚Â What a disaster that was! I think that I accidentally bumped the lock door button when I went back to the car to put my window up after talking to the Valet… so needless to say, while I took photos of getting ready, I was on the phone with AAA to have them come and unlock my car. Really I didn’t even care if my car got towed… I just wanted to take photos and deal with my car later. All worked out though… Katie and her gals were so sweet and understanding. I felt terrible!!!! But, I am pretty sure that I will not do that again! Praise God that I had my camera equipment out of the car!

Poor little guy!!! I came in with my camera and started snapping pictures and frightened him! He didn’t know that I couldn’t “see” him getting dressed. In fact, I might not have even noticed if it weren’t for the look on his face!

Here is Katie’s audience!

One of the guys had the idea to make a photo like Abbey Road… They only had a few seconds to pose… because the cars were not going to wait… It was a god try though!

Thanks Katie and Drew! Gorgeous wedding!

Neil and Cassen Trash the Dress

November 13, 2008

So awhile back (obviously if you take a look at the trees/weather!) Neil and Cassen had their Trash the Dress Session! So fun! Love, love the pics! We were back at her Aunt and Uncle’s property where they got married. It truly is a little slice of photography heaven out there!

I definitely wish I would have taken more at this spot using those shadows!!! They are awesome!

Here is Cassen in her garden attire….

Thanks guys!!!!! You have been so much fun to work with!

The Grieb Family!

November 13, 2008

I met the Grieb family on the perfect fall day just before Halloween… Chilly air, gorgeous sunshine… colorful leaves…. Ã‚Â And, an awesome family! Ã‚Â You might recognize Mollie and Brian from April and Andy’s wedding. Brian and Andy are brothers… and Brian’s family took advantage of my fall family portrait session special in Federal Hill Park. Here are some of my favorites of the day. Talk about a family with energy!

I just love the warm light from the sun!
