Mr. & Mrs. Weeks

My friend Carrie with BellaBlu Photography photographed my friend Missy's wedding, and I got to go along and help. It was a gorgeous wedding and it was so fun to get to work with BellaBlu! Here are some favorites...















Missy the Bride

Gorgeous Missy should seriously teach How-to-Take-Bridal-Photos classes. She was so good at posing and changing things up... And we even did a special "couture" shot- you should be able to spot that one...

Corey

I just did some headshots for Corey the actor- and honesty, I'm just posting these for bragging rights when he gets famous (he just auditioned last week for One Tree Hill and Army Wives- my favorite!!) And we'll end with Blue Steel... (anyone?)




Jessica & David

My good friend from childhood is getting married! (And her last name is Murray... and her fiance is a David... and my husband is David Murray... fun fact) We got together for some engagement photos with their baby Dunkin the pug...

Redemption

I just had my first photograph in a gallery- It was called the "matchstick gallery" at IF coffeehouse in Little 5 Points. I was one of four artists asked to interpret the word "redemption" through my art, so I created a photograph based on the idea that we are the bride of Christ- a bride who has been cleansed and forgiven of our past and who is looked at as someone washed clean and white. The lyrics to a Shane & Shane song fit this idea perfectly:

" wash me in the water of the Word
i lay me on the alter of Your will
present me blameless
without blemish,
Holy Bride,
white
Lord, purify Your Bride"

Here are some of the photos from our shoot, with the photo we actually used in the gallery at the top...

Callie Grace

I had the chance to photograph beautiful Callie Grace (fun fact: Her mom is pregnant with a little boy that they will name David! Callie and David... get it??) She was the most beautiful little girl- check out her big blue eyes! Callie's dad is in the Army and is scheduled to deploy about the same time David is due- whew, gotta respect the strength of those military families!
