Whitney Lately...

This past week I attended a fabulous workshop at Bald Head Island called Learnfest. Not only did I have a great time, learn from the the best women in the industry, meet tons of great people and make some new friends, but I also have some exciting things in the works for my clients!! So much fun! :) Can't wait for you all to see in the coming months!

I have been super busy (as usual) getting settled with my new husband Mike and embarking on a few new things. I have a wedding this Sunday that I am really excited about and will be blogging soon with more details!

It was crazy-windy on the island--maybe because there was a tropical storm on the way!?! Glad I made it onto the ferry before the storm got too bad! Also, props to my dad for calling my mom and I to warn us about the gas shortage before we headed home to Charlotte--we promptly topped the car off before heading home!


Another picture from my phone with much better lighting!




Stay tuned and good luck finding gas!!!

Where were you...

when 9/11 happened?

I hope no one has forgotten what happened to our country 7 years ago. My thoughts and prayers go out to those who are still mourning the lives lost of their families and loved ones.

Always remember 9/11/2001

sneak peek...

Here is a sneak peek of some things I've been shooting recently....I will be blogging about each shortly :)

My wedding!!! June 14, 2008

I thought I would post a few shots from my wedding....we have some great pictures that family and friends sent over to us, so that was very sweet!























Mike and I had the BEST time and words cannot even describe our happiness :)

The most important people in our lives were there to witness our marriage and it was such a special day and I look forward to being a part of all my brides special days, too!!

More of Jayme and Joel's Wedding!

I wanted to finish posting a few of Jayme and Joel's wedding pictures, since blogger freaked out and didn't want that many photos in one post :)

Here is their scrumptious cake!



Anddd, they had cupcakes!!



Cutting the cake



Will they or won't they??











And another cool table piece




Thank you Jayme and Joel! I had a fantastic time at your wedding and everything was absolutely gorgeous!!!

Jayme and Joel's Wedding at the North Carolina Museum of History

Ahh, I'm back so soon--not used to this are we?? :)

I had the opportunity to shoot a BEAUTIFUL wedding a few months ago up in Raleigh, NC at the North Carolina Museum of History. Jayme is a cool, funky bride and had such awesome ideas for decor and theme. She and Joel spent a lot of time planning their wedding and you could tell from the sophisticated touches at the reception.

Just wanted to remind everyone that I have no problem traveling, so if your wedding is out of town like Jayme's, feel free to call or email to get a quote on travel prices :)

Getting ready shots:





Jayme's dress had beautiful detail to it:












Sitting pretty







I love this shot!!!








Beautiful church



They went up for a high five after being announced husband and wife












Finally married!



Jayme is so much fun :)







table shots



I will be posting just a few more shots from their wedding---blogger won't let me post any more in this post!!!

Katie and Matt---Engagement Session in NoDa!!!

I'm baaaaccck!!! Finally, right? Geez, I have not blogged in years, but Mike (my new husband!!) and I have been busy getting married (yes! I am a married woman now), going on a great honeymoon, and setting-up house (that sounds so 1950's).

Thank you to all my brides and couples who have been so supportive while I have been out of town and now I am back in action, taking care of orders and blogging :)

I did Katie and Matt's session back in May. We were originally scheduled for late April, but it kept raining and so Katie and Matt so kindly rescheduled with me.

When Katie told me they wanted to do an engagement session, I was pumped---I LOVE engagement sessions---I feel like I get to know my clients better and by the time your wedding rolls around, we're like old friends :) When Katie told me they wanted to do their session in NoDa, I was more pumped than EVER because I love NoDa. It's a cool little niche in Charlotte, with old glamorous buildings that are painted in neat, funky colors. I really had a hard time picking out which photos I wanted to blog, so I may just do a slideshow later so you can see them all---they're just great!

Katie and Matt are getting married in October, so I am excited about their upcoming wedding!


Such a happy-in-love couple








Risked their lives for a great shot :)








I totally caught them making out in front of the fire station...






Went to a local playground for some fun shots:



One of my faves---but it's hard to choose just one!


Katie and Matt: I had a lovely time and I cannot wait until your wedding!!! :)
