Bobby & Andrea Wedding Greenville, SC






Bobby and Andrea were married the past weekend in Greenville, SC. We had a fun weekend. I was able to be apart of their rehearsal, rehearsal dinner and be able to spend the entire day with them for their special day. The wedding was held at John Knox Presbyterian Church and then we went over to the Greenville Marriott Hotel for the reception. The hotel was beautifully decorated in a winter theme and as spectacular place to take pictures. Here are just a few of the many images Jana Candler and I were able to photograph. Jana came to help me and it was great to reconnect with her and be able to work together in her hometown. This was one of my favorite weddings to photograph this year it is always a blessing to be able to work with such great people from the family to the staff at the Marriott. Simply awesome.

Andrea's Bridal Portrait in Greenville, SC






I was priveledged to go back to Greenville, SC to take Andrea's Bridal portrait in the amazing Westin Poinsett Hotel. It is gorgeous hotel in the downtown Greenville area. It was built in the 1920's and was remodeled a few years ago and they did an great job restoring this beautiful place. Andrea and her mom Nevva were such a joy to work with and I love hanging out with them. We had a great time as you can see and were able to get some amazing photos. It was great to go back and work in the Poinsett again it has been a little over a year since I was there for another wedding.

Tiffiny & Ross Enagement Session






Tiffiny & Ross came into the Studio on Feb 2nd and we had a great time getting to know each other and hanging out. I was so glad that they could come in especially since Tiffiny drove up from Huntsville, AL where the wedding will be.  It was unusually warm but I don't believe we have had consistent weather in so long I am not really sure I could tell you what "normal" really is any more for this time of year. So we headed up to the Parthenon and we were only there for a short time because it was so windy and cold and it was like a mini-tornado around the park so we came back to the studio and did some really cool urban shots. I can't wait to go to Huntsville for the wedding, Tiffiny and Ross were so cool and were really great to work with and we are sure to have a great time together on the wedding day! 

The beard is no more...



Well as you can see below I had a beard briefly and with many different comments and opinions from accolades such as Thumbs up and "Man that is so cool!!!" to not so positive reinforcement "Call me when you get rid of that thing so we can be friends again....". Well we had a great run and so to commemorate the short time we had together I created the pics below to show the gradual demise of my manhood. It is almost like watching the Hulk turn back into human form. Sad and uninteresting. Oh we shall meet again my old friend next year in the cold of the season. 

It feels good to be stroking the butt chin again. HA! Yes these were taking on a hat day I know my hair can lay down it is amazing...CYA!!!
