Tuesday

The Baker Family....















This was Andrew's second session with In Bloom, and I was amazed at how he's grown and changed into such a little man!  He was all boy... rough and tumble and charged with energy!  We had a good time "people-spotting" in the building next to where we were shooting.... I got some fun expressions as we'd see someone walking by and shout..."There's one!!"  Just gotta find what works to get them relaxed and the smiles and sweet expressions just come!  

Thank you Jennifer for having In Bloom back one more time before the transition!  So glad I got the chance to shoot with your family (the first time, it was one of my associates who did the session!!).  More fun pictures to come!

Monday

Miguel & Shakira....











Miguel is a buddy of my husband's, and ironically, we were visiting Dunklin Memorial Church church, the same day they were having their wedding ceremony!  Like a good photographer... I had my trusty camera in tow and naturally..... we took pictures!!  :)  Here are just a few... I really love the black and whites... and the ring shots too!  Congratulations guys and please keep in touch!

The Welcome table at the reception... Leigh had several of their engagement shots on display..

                                    Fathoms Restaurant!  Unreal place for a reception...








This wedding weekend was surely a weekend I'll never forget!  You might recognize this beautiful couple from their engagement session from a few months ago on Atlantic Avenue.  Well, Leigh and Bill flew myself and my husband (who did a smashing job assisting!) out for 3 days to the Atlantis Hotel on Paradise Island in the Bahamas to photograph their wedding.  Everything was perfect... we had a lovely time with their whole family.  They had 100 people fly over to celebrate with them... 100 people for a destination wedding!!  Wow!  I included a few images from the rehearsal, but most of these are from the actual wedding day.  I had some time at the airport and on the plane to get these edited and wanted to get them up before the newlyweds leave for Greece on Tuesday!

Leigh & Bill- thank you so much for having us!  We had a woonderful time and were blessed to be a part of your wonderful weekend!!  You may not realize this, but you gave us a romantic weekend away together before our big move to Texas next week.... where we will probably not have a date night for a few months because we don't know very many people just yet!  Many many thanks and blessings to you both as you begin this new life together!!
