A few weeks ago, I had the honor of attending Stephanie and Jeremy’s wedding in Valdosta, GA. I was actually not the photographer but a guest, but I did ask permission to bring my camera for after all it would be the first wedding I ever went to in South Georgia and also on a farm. So i got super snap happy and took way to many pictures but I could not help myself for everything was just lovely, unique and so Jeremy and Stephanie. I especially loved Stephanie riding up to the wedding on the back of her daddy’s tractor! I posted these on my facebook photography page not to long ago, but also wanted to post them here to share with everyone who is not on facebook!

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Hughes!

More to come!

Yesterday, while photographing Adam & Destiny’s engagement portraits, I saw these flowers (foxglove I believe?) and I just had to take a picture of them. I love flowers, I love the many different kinds and colors! Wish I could have a amazing garden in my backyard of all kinds of flowers but for now I will just make trips to gardens down the street from my house to enjoy!

I LOVE flowers, my favorite is Gerber Daises (in case anyone ever wants to get me flowers), but I also love tulips. Perhaps my love of tulips came from living in Michigan or perhaps it was my doctrine class (haha theology connection TULIP/5pt Calvinism) but for whatever reason I love their simplicity and color! Currently, I am also falling in love with learning about other art forms and using textures to create various of my photographs. I am testing out various fine art papers and will soon be moving into another art media that I will only reveal after I attempt it a few times, assuming it works

“Lovely Tulips” is available for purchase on various sizes, canvas and paper types, if interested in purchasing leave send me a message.

On Sunday, I attended Christmas program at this small little church in New Galilee, PA, the pews had such character combined with the hymnals made for a perfect image. This shot, I also added a texture overall.

While on vacation in Grand Rapids, MI this week, I did a portrait session for my dear friend Rachel and her family at Fredrick Meijer Gardens. I had not been there in years, and I honestly never knew how much there was to see there. I only had a short time to explore the gardens with Rachel’s family, but later I saw a bit on my own before it closed. If you live in Grand Rapids and have not been to the gardens in awhile, I highly suggest you get out and visit!

Thanks to my friend and fellow photographer Lesley Kerr’s inspiration months ago, I love photographing wedding rings in unique places. Therefore, while at the gardens, I could not resist borrowing Rachel’s wedding rings and finding unique places to photograph them among the plants in the Victorian Gardens. Here are a few of my favorites. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment below.
