I’m downloading everything from Claire and James’ most fabulous wedding right now and I can’t wait to get started on it!  There’s just so much to get out the door before the little man arrives!  In the meantime, we are due up for some new images up on the blog so I wanted to share a few of my favorite girls with you.  Two of my very best friends came over a couple of weekends ago so that we could commemorate the milestone ages of their little ones. 

You remember Georgia.  She’s 6 months old!  Don’t you love those cheeks??

Evie is 1 year old and she is quite the sassy little thing.  :)

Lauren will be 4 in November so her spotlight shoot will be coming up soon.  In the meantime, we had to catch some of this great cheesin’ on film (do you still say that now that we’re in the world of digital??).

It’s so much fun to see what kids will do. :)  Thanks for looking!

Join us as we discuss developing and understanding your photographic style and how remaining committed to your style can be your strongest asset. We’ll talk about being your best: as an artist, as a photographer and as a business person. We will discuss the significance of setting goals, both short-term and long-term, and how the simple things you do to market will make your goals attainable. Finally, they will discuss the ever-appealing topic of destination weddings–how to attract them, and even more importantly, do you WANT to attract them.

One of our weddings has been featured on the Southern Weddings Magazine blog!  A while back, Marlena and Tim’s wedding caught their eye and they contacted us about using photos from their fabulous Savannah, GA wedding.  Southern Weddings is an amazing resource for brides looking for unique details and ways to bring elegant southern flair to their weddings.  We are honored to have been asked to contribute!  Thanks again, Marlena and Tim, for letting us share in your beautiful wedding day!  Thank you also to the ladies of Southern Weddings for featuring Marlena and Tim!
