Cassie and Kevin are precious and their story sweet as ever. I asked Cassie to write up a blurb about their relationship (mainly because she can tell it so much better!). My favorite line “we are blessed to have found one another and know that is was simply by God’s sweet grace that we did.”  ughh… grab me the tissues! I’m a romantic by nature and fall in love over again with my own husband weekly. Knowing two people are completely and fully vulnerable to fall in love with another is amazing, a God gift indeed. It is by the sweet grace of God that he can hand pick someone for you.

Family shoots are always so fun to shoot… they are always full of laughter, trying new stuff, and getting babies or kids to sit still… even if for a few seconds.

Belinda is a friend of my mine and I’ve known her family for a couple years. She has three precious beautiful girls: Cora (11), Catalena (7), and Calleigh (16months).

Belinda wanted to get pictures of her girls for Easter, but little did she know how much fun we would have doing it! We headed to Sherwood Gardens, where Patrick and I had our engagement pictures a little over a year ago. Here’s the outcome of our time together!

This past Saturday, my brother had the honor of going to the Mount De Sales Prom with his friend Shannon. Of course being his favorite big sister, I tagged along my mom to go take pictures of Shannon and Sam meeting up, and then went with them to a Pre-Prom where they would meet up with a handful of friends.

Shannon and Sam looked stellar and so did the other girls and their dates at the Pre-Prom gathering. Everyone looked fantastic! Here are the pictures from the evening!

This past Saturday, I was hired to photograph “the details” of work done by Victoria Clausen.

Victoria is an amazing woman, great personality with beautiful style. I met her through a mutual friend, Elle Thompson, a fellow teacher at McDonogh when I taught there right out of college.

Victoria is a floral event designer and creates extravagant pieces for weddings and events. From centerpieces, to atmosphere and hanging draperies to escort tables and cocktail parties, Victoria covers it all. The job I was hired for was for a wedding, and my job… to capture the detail work of this designer for the bride and groom. The photos take at this shoot will go into a book created by Victoria as a gift to the bride and groom.
