Modeling at the Biltmore

We got a call a few weeks ago, and I did a double-take; it was a request for Lindsey and I to model, not to take pictures. Delighted to be on the other side of the camera for a change, Lindsey and I accepted, and had an awesome time modeling for Corey McNabb's Rockstar Wedding Photography Workshop. The location was Asheville's incredible Biltmore Estate, which (a great coincidence) we visited a few years ago on our honeymoon! Lindsey looked absolutely stunning in her gown from Boutique Couture, and completed the look with an incredible 'birdcage' veil.




It was a dream location...however, slightly unlucky for Lindsey and the other model brides was the weather today, which topped out at about 26 degrees...so it was an amazingly beautiful, yet cold experience.
So thanks to Amber Holritz for the invite, and to Meggie, Rich, and many others for being patient while we tried the modeling thing!

We shared the modeling duties with two other brides, and a 'couple': Eric and Shyla. Thanks all, for such a great experience!

Bonfire

We had a fun idea last Saturday, and had some friends over to our place for a wintertime bonfire. The weather was cold enough that we all snuggled in towards the fire. Some people were so close to this oft-photographed fire that they melted the soles off their shoes!...At least there were no cases of frostbite!

Cyndi and Phil's Wedding

Last weekend, we had the chance to photograph Cyndi and Phil's wedding just south of Atlanta. Here are some of our favorite images from their wedding! (click on the rings for a slideshow!)

Judith & Allen

On Monday, we road-tripped down to Atlanta to hang out and photograph Judith and Allen.
We met at Park Tavern near Piedmont Park and found some fantastic places to take pictures. Judith and Allen were not only fun to be around but were so natural in front of the camera. Since they love the city, we finished up our shoot by taking some portraits that featured the ATL skyline. You can see more images by clicking

Sarah & Jeremy: Take 2

John and I photographed Sarah & Jeremy's wedding back in December. It was cold and rainy on their wedding day, so we met this past Sunday to take some more casual images of the two of them in their wedding attire. We met at Jeremy's farm which is so beautiful even in the winter.

The weather was a little strange on Sunday! Although it was warmer than normal, the wind was absolutely CRAZY. It kept blowing things away; my reflectors, cowboy hats, the veil, etc.

Sarah & Jeremy are so natural together! I am so glad that we could do this photo shoot because I really feel that these images reflect who they are!

Molly is Hired!

We had a shoot a couple of weeks ago with a beautiful little girl, Riley.
She was a little timid and shy, but loved dogs. So after we tried every trick up our sleeves, we brought Molly in to help us out!

Molly saved the day!

This is my favorite image of Riley reading Molly a book! Riley is not only adorable, but so smart!

John and I are going to have to give Molly a raise!

Mexico Shoot!

We had the pleasure of going to Mexico with some great friends of ours, Brad & Nicole, and they were kind enough to model for us one day. We woke up very early one morning and headed out to the beach to take some photos. They were such amazing models and were willing to try anything. We even finished shoot with them jumping into the water! Check out some of their images by clicking on the picture.

Viva Mexico!

John and I have been out of town for the past week taking a vacation to the Mexican Riviera! It was beautiful, peaceful, and absolutely perfect. John and I came home very rested and excited to get back to work! Click on the image to see more!
