So are you guys ready for some warm weather or what!?! This weather is ridiculous! Bring on the sun!! Anyways, enough complaining, we'll have plenty of sunshine and photos shoots soon!!
Here are some random Thursday thoughts:
- We've been working hard on albums all winter and are so excited to see them in person!! We're also ordering several new sample albums so that's pretty exciting too :)
- We have an intern! Her name is Hanna and she's super sweet! We're sooooo lucky to have her!
- I've got a really exciting secret experimental photoshoot this weekend and that's all I'm going to say on the blog. Ladies, I'll tell ya all about it in person!!
- We did our first engagement shoot of 2010 yesterday in the cold. Lisa & Nathan were total troopers. They were so cute & energetic we had no problems making fun pictures despite the freezing temps.
- I have a new obsession, it's Jazzercise. Yep... it's awesome.
- Dan and I are getting really excited about all of the engagement shoots we have lined up for March & April. If you are one of these people we would love, love, love for you to be thinking of cute fun ideas that match your style as a couple, so we can talk about it and get you the cutest pics ever. Here are some places to get ideas: Green Wedding Shoes, Style me Pretty, Once Wed to name a few. Type in engagements or select engagements under categories.
- This year I would like to do engagement shoots in the following locations: a sunflower field, at a fair, at a farmer's market, something with big, gigantic balloons, something with a canoe... and that's just off the top of my head. Let's do some different, fun things this year!
Sooooo excited about 2010!!!!!
Last weekend we went to Mooresville, NC to an engagement party for our friends Michelle & Christopher. Michelle is part of my NC friend group that I'm always talking about. If you're a regular reader of our blog you've probably seen photo shoots with most of my girls :)
It was a Mardi Gras themed party :) and I was super excited because this is the first dress up event I've been to with these girls in forever and not also been a vendor!

Hello Friends!
Since it's winter, which is our slower time, I thought I'd post a few pics from our life. All of the pics in this post are from our farm, where Dan and I live. They were all taken in two days --- one early afternoon and one late afternoon. The horses are my familys and our next door neighbor. The two dogs are my sisters, their names are Max & Bernie. She brings them out to the farm to run around. Her dog Max is crazy and really needs it... It'll be pretty obvious which one is Max :). Two barn cats are Khaki and Stumpy. I'm in love with Khaki. My mom is going to love this post and say, "I'm going to need a copy of all of those..." That's just my prediction.
Notes: Everything in this set was done with a couple new tools we've gotten this winter. We used the Lens Baby and processed only with TRA's new Lightroom presets.
Enjoy!
A few more with the Instax --- so fun! Pony on the left is my favorite and Gracie on the right is Dan's favorite horse.
And lastly, I took this one last fall, a Christmas present for my mom.
Marty says:
I want one of ALL of these! Please!!
Michelle says:
These pics are great! Can't wait to visit the farm.

Happy Valentine's Day!!
To celebrate, here's a sweet, sweet wedding where Dan and I totally got our wish -- that there would be a little snow on the ground for Katie & Jeremiah's wedding. The snow was perfect, a light dusting - just enough to help make pictures, but not keep anyone from having fun. I really liked how you could see some of the ground peeking through the snow. Katie, Jeremiah and their whole wedding party were total troopers since the high that day was only 18! Yeah, yikes! That's pretty cold for a wedding in Tennessee, but everyone seriously had a blast!
Katie & Jeremiah got married at Cedar Springs and had their reception at Hunter Valley Farm. We did all of their pics before the ceremony at HVF, then headed over to Cedar Springs just before the ceremony. This was perfect because we had a great backdrop for all of the really important shots and had everything done by the time it got dark, which was right after the ceremony. Great planning!
Enjoy!!
The handsome groom!
Katie was so wonderful to work with. She was all smiles all day.
Almost completely frozen!
My FAVORITES!! Katie looks like a snow princess!
My favorite!! Yes, they were cold, but don't feel too bad - they flew to Jamaica the next day for a romantic honeymoon in the sun!
love
love
love!
awwww....
A sweet ceremony
Going into the reception
A few reception shots! The end!! Thank you Katie & Jeremiah!!
