Amy & Jamie








WOW...I LOVE sessions that have all elements come together to create something beautiful! Amy and Jamie are getting married this July in the quiet, picturesque town of Montevallo... but before we even get to their wedding, we photographed their engagement session at Jamie's family's farm which was the perfect setting! There was a perfectly overcast sky which turned to hot pink right at sunset - it was amazing as we got to capture it as a backdrop for them! It was a very surreal moment, but the sky looked like a painting. Maybe you saw it? If not, there will be another...


Thank you Amy and Jamie for kicking back and having fun during your session! You're a wonderful, sweet couple! Many blessings! And I am so excited about the wedding!

Babies on the way!!!






Two of my past brides are having boys next month! I'm so excited for these two friends and their husbands - absolutely beautiful women of God. Here's a mix of Joanna & Joey, as well as Jackie & Daniel...and their 'bellies'!

Cruuuuuuise......











Well, John and I are back from our cruise last week - our first of many honeymoons together :)

Our Carnival ship left Tampa and sailed to Grand Cayman and Cozumel. I recommend the Caymans to those who love to shop - we weren't so much interested in that aspect as the beach! Cozumel was interesting - we had a lot of fun renting a baja bug and cruising the island, doing a little snorkeling and checking out some ruins. Not the Mayan ruins we expected, but we got some cool shots there, including a huge iguana! We left out of Tampa, and as you can see, the stack of the ship cleared the Skyway Bridge by 10 feet! Quite amazing to be on the deck and see this optical illusion before your eyes as it looked like we were going to take out the bridge!

More personal pix to come, but here are a few highlights (and oddities)...we're still not sure what the black smoke coming from the stack was all about, but we made it home!
