Happy Birthday Dad :)

Today is my dad's birthday.....now, I'm not going to tell you his age.....I don't think he checks my blog, but if he does he might not want me blasting his age all over the internet , but he is still pretty young :) Here is a picture of my dad from his birthday last year......we're going to have his little shindig birthday party this weekend because in our family, birthdays are kind of a big deal



I also realized that since I have started my blog I have missed a couple of birthdays. So, here is a picture of my mom (October 20) and Beverly (September 14) in honor of their birthdays



Want a picture like this? Go to Azteca and they'll embarrass every last ounce out of you!




Can you guess who has the next birthday?


Is it....

Jim?





Heidi?



or Jackson?



By the way, we don't just sit around and take pictures of each other in hats....this was taken last Christmas after a long day of eating and opening presents!



Love yall :)

Super Cute Engagement Session

A few weekends ago, I got the chance to visit Raleigh for the weekend to get some shots of John and Jessi. John actually went to high school in Tennessee with my fiance, Mike, and they both ended up coming to college in North Carolina....because North Carolina is so awesome :o)

John and Jessi are getting married in July and I was so excited to get the chance to take their engagement pictures......there were so many awesome shots that I put together a slideshow......Enjoy!!!!

Thanks for having us in Raleigh guys! You need to visit Charlotte soon!!!!

Sarah's Bridal Session

Over a month ago, I had the pleasure of taking some pictures of Sarah. I actually went to high school and college with Sarah and her mom was my French teacher in high school! Sarah has a cool degree in music education and has the most beautiful voice....I wish I could sing well!!!!

We actually did Sarah's shoot at Frank Liske Park and I think they turned out so great! She also has the most unique engagement ring I've ever seen.....It's heart shaped!!! :)





My favorite shot...



This one is so pretty







Sarah has such a pretty smile! So photogenic



Thanks Sarah for all your help!
