My husband is HOT!!!!



OK, so no...it hasn't been a full year since we got married (Doug I married at last years shimmyfest) but shimmyfest was last Saturday....I'm still on a belly dance "high" - it was so exciting. I look forward to shimmyfest every year. Anyways, shimmyfest marks our wedding and boy I was just so excited to have the love of my life there. Doug is just so exciting and did I tell you all he is HOT HOT HOT??? My man makes me swoon every time I see him and my heart flutters like crazy. Almost a full year of marriage and I'm crazier about him now than I was over a year ago!!! He really makes me all "foggy" and I can't seem to concentrate because I'm in la-la land. Ok, ok ....I'm making you all sick but being in love is nothing I have ever experienced ever! (well the exception of my daughter but that is a different love - you all know what I mean!!) Anyways, I'm just so proud of my hot husband and I'm so excited to be his wife and I can't wait to see what is in store for us. Being in love ROCKS!!!!

July 14th wedding

I photographed another wedding for Stone Ridge Photographers. Saturday, July 14th. The wedding was at Colonial Courts which is a pretty neat place. Stefanie and Mike were super cool and I had a great time at their wedding!








Wanna trash it?

Trashing the wedding dress is creating quite the "buzz" in the media. I am all about taking someone out and having fun "trashing the dress." We don't have to destroy it but you can totally let your hair down, not worry about your dress getting dirty before the wedding (you're married already!) and just having a good time in the great outdoors. Let's go have fun!




This is Sarah in her dress - 5 years later!! She didn't care that we were in the woods and there was dirt on the ground!

Fairies, wood nymphs, gothic chics - oh my!

So I get this "inkling" to do fun dress up photos from time to time. I called my family and friends up and said "let's go into the woods and do pics!" I asked my bestest bud Haley if we could use her driveway and she said "yeah!" So here' what we did!


My other bestest bud - she's all dreamy in the woods!

My mom dressed as a fairy along with Amelia! How cute is this?

The witch runs thru the woods!

Make your own story line.....attack of the witch!

The beautiful Sarah. Can you believe she has 2 young children? She looks awesome!!!

07-07-07

07-07-07 was the most popular wedding date of the year! I booked a wedding through Stone Ridge Photography. I had so many inquiries for this date but I got the opportunity to spend the day with Ashley and Channon. They were such an awesome couple and Ashley was full of personality!


I had meant for Ashley to turn the other way and look at her ring but things were going SUPER fast, I like the photo either way! It's so dainty and beautiful!

Macro shot of the rings - LOVE her ring - so unique!

My assistant Shane grabbed this amazing shot during the ceremony. Bravo to him - he has been shadowing me at weddings and is really picking up photography!

A cute pic of Ashley! Her mom made her dress - WAY cool!

It was definitely HOT outside, so glad the bride thought of having fans for all her guests.

Uh oh....the cops showed up! There was actually a "hit & run" at the reception! One of the guests backed into another guests car and sped off! The lady had to call the cops to file a report!

Ashley and her dad - walking down the aisle. Love the look in her face and love how proud her father is!
