Hailey's Bridal Session

Hailey came in for her bridal session on St. Patrick's Day... we went to Botanical Gardens and while we were there, we noticed some floral arrangements in the Gazebo and decided to use it and then we saw a limo pull in and we decided to head back to my studio and as we were leaving, a wedding started to take place out of nowhere... we were pretty surprised! Anyway, Maestro, Hailey's dog joined the studio session and did very well! I will upload more photos of her after the June wedding... keep posted!



Louis Vuitton... the French Bulldog Puppy





Louis came in for his first photo shoot on Wednesday with Heather... he didn't want to sit still for long so we put him in a little box I had and it was adorable!!! After the session, he peed on the floor, I guess he was nervous! : )

A Few Days Of Inspiration...

In the past few days, I have been able to see and hear speak 2 very well known photographers in the field... one, a baby/child photographer Sandy "Sam" Puc who is on her "Tots to Teens" Tour... I went to Charlotte for the seminar. Among many things to learn when photographing children, she demonstrated with live models and how she interacts with very young children and it was nothing short of amazing! It was incredible and I learned some new techniques and certainly hope to make it fun for the children I am able to photograph in the future!

The other, a very well known and brilliant photographer Denis Reggie from Atlanta who came to Asheville to speak to a group of local wedding photographers at Regina Holder's studio. It was incredibly inspiring and after he was done speaking, It made me think about myself differently in the wedding business, in a positive way and I was so glad that I got to hear him speak and see his amazing work!
