Bridals { Mika Shea }

I have been so excited to post Mika's bridals! We shot them near the end of May and
finally her big day rolled around on Saturday. Mika, her future mother-in-law, future sister-in-law and great friend Cassie came all the way from Weaverville to my favorite place to shoot!
M u r r a y ' s M i l l B r i d a l
We also made a stop at Bunker Hill Covered Bridge for a lush, green setting.

Saturday, I drove to near Asheville to shoot Jamie + Mika's wedding, which was country themed nestled in the Western North Carolina Mountains. I'll post their wedding images shortly, but for now, enjoy Lady Shea.












Mika's favorite image, her Bridal Portrait...

Tri-City Christian School Mother/Daughter Banquet

I had the honor of shooting portraits for the Tri-City Christian School Mother/Daughter Banquet last week! I would like to thank Miss Landa for all the work and prayers she puts into her students' studies. It was a joy to be a part of the gathering.

Wedding Photography Workshop

On Saturday, February 7th, I attended an incredible Wedding Photography Workshop at The Light Factory in uptown Charlotte. Photographer Richard Israel was the speaker. What an inspirational guy who shares a passion for photography, family and people. It was so great to meet and collaborate with others photogs from the Charlotte area.

Arwen

It’s so hard to believe that our oldest niece will be turning 9 this weekend! Arwen is such a darling young lady who loves the range and longs to be a cowgirl. Seriously. She is amazing and sensitive, yet impeccably strong. Arwen can out-yodel any cowpoke and can out ride any cowboy cruising the range. Don’t believe me? Click here.

Happy Birthday, Arwen!
