Steve and Athena

As always, I love repeat customers. Steve and Athena wanted to work in a cross for their family Christmas card portrait. Confident that there was a cross at my family church, we arrived only to discover that it was only up during the Easter season!

A little research and time later, we finally did get some great shots of the kids in an outdoor setting with a cross. Here's a nice shot of the family at the first location.

Curtis and Mallory

Family portrait sessions are always fun. I love to see the families get dressed up in coordinating outfits, and see how excited they are to get started!

What was going to be a newborn photo shoot became a family shoot for the family of Curtis and Mallory. We got a great fall afternoon with great light for the shoot.

Here's a favorite from the day.

Candace and Tyler

On September 22, 2012 Candace and Tyler were married at Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Lincolnton, NC. I was especially excited to cover their wedding as this was my biggest wedding to date. That, and we got such great bridal portraits.

The reception was held at a golf club in Marion, NC. It was a real challenge to get good pics there because it was so DARK there, but they came out just fine. Good equipment and knowing how to best use it.

Here's a favorite from the reception. Check out the rest in the gallery.
