justin & whitley

Justin and Whitley had absolutely the most beautiful wedding at McGuire-Millrace Farm in Andrews. Of course, they chose the most rainy weekend ever to get married, but the rain cleared after the ceremony so we could sneak outside and get some great shots of them around the property. They do say rain is good luck for a marriage right? If so, these two are going to be ridiculously happy :) They have be SO patient while I've been working on these pictures, and I wanted to give them one quick little sneak peek. I'm obsessed with this picture right now. I think you can really see how much they love each other. I hope you guys enjoy this quick, very small sneak peek. I can't wait for you to see the rest of them!

Chaffin Family

Yeah, I disappeared for a while there....

School started about two weeks ago, and for the entire week before school starts, I go into teacher mode and the rest of my life pretty much has to shut down in order for me to get ready for the upcoming year. For some reason that is beyond me, we also decided to move that same week! Needless to say, I have literally had NO time until now to sit down and edit pictures. I'm finally hitting it really hard this week. And without further ado, here is some of what I've been working on...

I got to meet up with the Chaffin family back in August, and they were such a fun group! They all met up here in the mountains for a family vacation. I took their pictures on the last day of their trip and we had such a blast! I hope you guys enjoy these. Sorry for such a large share, but ya'll have been so patient in waiting for these that I wanted to put several on here. Enjoy!

Batman and Snow White

I got to visit my friends Jen and Brian's house the other day and take pictures of her adorable kiddos, Abram and Alden. They are such fun kids and I love hanging out with them. They are pretty used to me, so it didn't take long for their goofy sides to come shining through. We set up the background stand in Jen's living room and just let the kids play. I think they had a good time, but I'm not sure if they had as good of a time as Jen and I had watching them :) We got some great funny face pictures and they also dressed up in their halloween costumes. It's not every day that I get to meet such celebrities as Batman and Snow White. Enjoy guys!

Carter Family

Last week, I got to meet up with the Carter Family for a photo shoot at Deep Creek. They were on vacation here from Florida. I think it was a little bittersweet for them because their oldest son is getting ready to leave for a two year mission and their second oldest son is leaving for college in the fall. Becky and Fletch have six (that's right, I said six) of of the coolest kids! You could really tell how much all the members of the family loved each other. I love this picture because you can really get a sense of who they are as a family. I had a blast with you guys, and I hope you enjoy your quick little sneak peek!

Luna Family

I had the pleasure of meeting the Luna Family about a week ago. They are all the way from Alabama and were vacationing here with their adorable family. I loved getting to play around with them and take some really cute pictures. Here is the first quick look at Deacon and Penny. I loved the location they were staying at, and can't wait to use this cool old fire truck in some future pictures. I hope you enjoy your quick sneak peek Jill and Ryan!

A little late posting this...

I had such a great time with Becky and her family a couple of weeks ago. I'm really late posting this, but I wanted to give them something to look at over the next day or two while I finish their pictures. I just wanted to put these of the three boys because they show their personalities so well :) I hope you guys like them!

Donaldson Family

I am so bad!!! It has taken me an entire week to get these kiddos up on my blog :( I just finished finals week in graduate school, so I finally have some more time to work on pictures - thank heavens! The Donaldson kiddos and I got together last Sunday afternoon to shoot some pics around downtown. Their mom tagged along too :) I am so glad I finally got to do a shoot in town - it was so fun. I didn't even care if all the tourists from the train were looking at us like we were crazy. Hope you enjoy your sneak peek Donaldsons - even if it is a week late...

Ashe Family

I got to spend part of the afternoon with the Ashe family. They were such a fun bunch and they were so patient. I had a blast with them! The dogs even got in on the action :) I hope you enjoy your sneak peek guys...

Walls Family

On Tuesday afternoon, I got to go over to our friend's house to take pictures of their adorable kids, Sarah and Ben. They are such funny kids! Ben has really come into his personality since the last time I saw him, and he was hilarious. Sarah kept wanting to see what she looked like on my screen after I took her picture :) I had a good time, and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek guys!

Edwards Family

Sunday morning, I drove over the mountain to Maggie Valley to take pictures of this great family. Coleman, Camden, and Carter (try saying that three times fast) were hilarious! The whole family were such troopers because we were out in the rain and cold for about an hour and a half. Thanks for being so great guys! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!
