Guess what?!?! As if you couldn't tell from the top of my blog, I got a *NEW* logo!!! I am so pumped! I have anxiously been awaiting to find free time to upload it onto my website and blog and it's finally here! I looovvvveee it!
Patrick Gavin of Buckethead Studios designed it for me and I couldn't be happier with it. Patrick understood exactly what I wanted and pretty much nailed it on the first try :) Here is his website (which he is currently working on), but you can send him an email...so, if anyone out there needs a logo, shoot Patrick an email!

Happy Monday!

Julia's Bridal Portrait Session in Rocky Mount, NC
A few weekends ago, I had the pleasure of traveling to Rocky Mount, NC (had never visited before) to do a shoot with Julia. Julia is actually getting married on April 19, so her big day isn't too far away! This was probably one of the coolest shoots I've ever done...
We did most of the session on an old plantation...that has over 500 acres!!!! And it's for sale....I sooo want to buy it...hehe
This was the coolest house ever: it had great light, beautiful details and plenty of options for pictures!!! I had the best time!
Julia, thank you so much for letting us visit for the weekend and for letting me drag you all over the property! I had a great time and I hope your wedding is spectacular!!! <3
Every room had a fireplace
And the details on the fireplaces were awesome
I just had to include a slide show because I couldn't pick any favorites...they were all awesome!

another countdown begins....
I graduate in exactly TWO months....that's all I have to blog about today....I'm so excited......!!! Just wish I didn't have so many little assignments between now and then....ahh, I'm almost free :)
And because I think blogging without pictures is boring, here is a random picture from this past Valentine's Day :-P
In the background, you can see a world map...Mike framed it and put pins in all the places we've traveled together :)
And the alligator is supposed to symbolize our first date at Razoo's...a cajun restaurant
Stay Tuned!

Engagement Session with Kelley and Kyle!
Over a month ago, I got to shoot a great engagement session with Kelley and Kyle. We when met for a consultation, I hoped they would book me because they are such a sweet couple. Kelley is an awesome bride because she knows what she wants and she already gotten so much planning out of the way, which is a good thing because she and Kyle are super busy...probably the busiest clients I've ever had!!!
We actually went to 3 different locations, which is awesome, because I was able to get lots of great shots with cool backgrounds. Here are a few from the day:
so romantic... :)
This lake will be in full view from their ceremony location...so pretty!
I LOVE this one!
Kelley had the great idea to get some urban shots in downtown Charlotte...
Kelley and Kyle: thank you so much for the fun day and I look forward to your wedding in September!!!

MIA!
I cannot believe how long it's been since I last blogged....I mean, where did the month of February go? Seriously? Hmm, well hopefully soon I will get back in the habit of consistent blogging after graduation (woohoo...!)
So what have I been doing these past few months? Traveling, (and homework) to say the least! Also, I've been shooting some awesome engagement sessions and wedding pix. I will have those up soon. First of all...I will post some fun pix of when Mike and I went to LA (that's right, warm, sunny, Los Angeles) over Christmas break. Except that it was not as warm as I thought it would be...they were apparently having one of the coldest winters in years and I failed to acknowledge it and chose to freeze in flip flops and the like.
I have never, ever been to California, so Mike and I downloaded the typical California-ish songs to listen to on the plane...you know, like, Phantom Planet's "California" and "Hotel California" by the Eagles and some Beach Boys stuff.
We never would have been able to go if Mike's brother hadn't offered to let us stay with him for free! So, we got to hang out with Jon and Fran (Jon's girlfriend) and got to do the typical LA scene things, such as cruise around Rodeo Drive looking for stars ( didn't see any), drove up and down the Sunset Strip, which, by the way, has it's own website....I never knew a road could have it's own website! www.thesunsetstrip.com
If you check out the nighttime section of the Sunset Strip website, you will see The Standard Lounge and that's where we *partied* on New Years...or more like ate a bunch of cheese and fruit because that's all we could afford and practically missed the countdown because of the long line at the bathroom!
We also drove through Hollywood and went to Graumman's Chinese Theatre and saw the Hollywood Walk of Fame. By the way, if you ever go to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and you are looking for a particular star, be sure to look it up ahead of time ( I didn't know you could buy a map specifying where the stars are) and it will save you a LOT of walking. I was on a mad search for Marilyn Monroe and we walked about 2 miles before we saw her star (which was near where we started...I thought Mike was going to kill me!)
Anywho, here are some pictures from the trip.....
Hollywood!
Palm trees everywhere! These were over 8 stories tall!!!
Finally found Marilyn :)
It is super crowded around the Chinese Theatre
I totally did this for my nephew Jackson and I hope he appreciates it, because this guy was creepy!!!
With Fran on New Year's!
Fran and Jon and I can't tell who the other guy is :)
Happy New Year!
On the Santa Monica Pier ferris wheel with Mike....he had never been on a ferris wheel, so I made him get on it with me!
And thanks to Jon and Fran for letting us stay with you!!! We had the best time!!!
Check back later...I will definitely be blogging more later!!!
