Prop Insanity is hosting a tutu image contest. I instantly thought of this recent image! Sweet Allie's Mommy loves zebra and purple!
(Not exactly sure why this image is showing up "cold." The edit is much warmer than it appears!)

The May 2012 challenge on I Heart Faces is "Hey Girl." I instantly thought of this image...it is one my most favorite child images that I've taken! She was just playing with that leaf, but the look on her face just speaks to me... Be sure to head over to the "Hey Girl" post to check out more awesome images!

Oh my goodness. Crystal's vintage bridal session is one of my favorite sessions ever! And it was awesome to visit the location where my husband and I got married as well, The Avoca Museum. We did all of her photos inside, which was the plan, even though I had hoped to snap a few outside too, however it was a rather windy day. I hope you enjoy looking through these as much as I do! Crystal is a living miracle...she survived a terrible car accident a few years ago and has had multiple surgeries since. She plans to get married soon, even though yet another surgery seems to be hindering their plans. Best wishes to Crystal and Brandon!
Ryan & Alyson were a very fun couple to photograph:) Take a look at some of their photos...there is even a dog included! Pets are always fun:)
Carson doesn't like to take photos...can you tell?
I sure can't! He photographed so well...and it was nice to have a GUY senior session for a change! I believe I've only photographed 1 guy senior before Carson.
Nice ride, huh?
I had to fight several parked cars to get this shot:)
Carson is on our local Rescue Squad...so if you need assistance, he will be on call for you!
Congrats to Carson on his upcoming graduation! I'm sure the future will be bright for this rising VCU student!

*Currently booking 2013 Senior sessions! Book yours by May 31st to receive a special credit!*
Meet Teresa.
Isn't she beautiful? I am so blessed to have her as my session assistant. But this session was her turn in front of the camera! I am so inspired by her and her drive. She is about to battle cancer for the second time...she is such a fighter! When I decided to do a spin-off of the the vintage "We Can Do It," I said who better to do it than Teresa!
She pulled this concept off wonderfully while still adding in her own style!
I mean really, don't you love those red pants?!
She is beautiful on the inside too:) I know that God has a special plan for her...she beat cancer the first time and she will do it again!
Please continue to keep Teresa in your prayers. She is strong, but it never hurts to have tons of support backing you up:)

My wedding was on October 9, 2010. It was an usually warm day for October. The location was at a local museum--The Avoca Museum, which is a big house. A really beautiful, big house. The wedding was outdoors and the location fit perfectly in to my vintage vibe.
So what would I have done differently? My inspiration for this post comes from a recent post by (once like a spark) photography. You can read that post here.
1. Had WAY FEWER guests. I wish that my ceremony and reception could have been more intimate and personal. Don't get me wrong, I loved the way that our ceremony turned out. Just the way I wanted! But there were so many people there, that afterwards, I didn't get to talk to everyone! I had no clue that certain people were there until I read our guest album...sad.
2. Dancing. I wanted to have fun dancing at the reception, but we never got around to more than "our dances." We were trying to socialize and get photos taken. If there had been fewer guests, that would have resolved this problem. I also worried that there wouldn't be many people left to see us off, so we left the reception earlier than I wanted to. Why did I worry? Was it really that big of a deal? NO! Don't sweat the small stuff! I could have had dancing if I hadn't been so concerned about guests watching us leave...
3. Details. I think I did rather well with some details. However, if there had been fewer guests, my reception costs would have been less, therefore more money to go towards the details:)
4. Let my Dad cut his hair. Funny story...my Dad had had long hair since I was in 8th grade. He wanted to cut it before my wedding and I wouldn't let him because I was afraid that I wouldn't like it. It's his hair! He can do what he wants...why was I so picky?! After our wedding, he cut it and I LOVED it! He looked 10 years younger...really. So nice. And everyone was so shocked he cut it! See, I could have let him surprise everyone at the wedding...lol.
Love my Daddy:)
Those about sum it up...especially the details one:) When you plan your special day...stop, think, and take some time to talk to those of us who have already done it! Don't sweat the small stuff though...your day will be as perfect as you make it!
Here are a few more shots from our special day:
Happy wedding planning!
