Okay! I am so excited about this! Here is our end (meaning, the pictures we took of them… I know, I confused myself with that one) of our holiday shoot swap with Landon & Jordan (LJP), our good photography friends! We just love them- They are too much fun! As you can see, they are vintage geniuses. I love how these turned out. Thanks, you guys for another amazing shoot swap! I will reveal the ones of me and Wes after I send out my Christmas cards … Don’t wanna spoil!

Happy Monday!

Hi friends! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving break! We spent Thanksgiving weekend at my parent’s house in Cashiers, NC. My parents, sister,  and brother & sister-in-law with their 3 kids were there too! One of my other brothers came just for Thanksgiving dinner. It was great to see everyone and I am so thankful for all my family!

For the most part, I gave my poor camera a rest. However, I did get a few random shots here and there. I had all intentions of doing a photo shoot for my niece and nephews, but things got a little busy. No worries though… I will be seeing them again in February

We had a weekend full of fun. We spent Thanksgiving day at my aunt & uncle’s house in Cashiers & ate tons of amazing food, I had an awesome photo shoot in Asheville, we made wreaths  & gingerbread houses with the kids, went shopping & watched a few movies. Here are a few shots:

Our fam with my aunt, uncle, and a few cousins:

Paul’s (my brother) beautiful family! His wife Liz and their kids Paul, Charlie, & Addie Grace. The kids are growing up too fast! Especially Addie Grace! Gorgeous kids. I am not partial at all. 

Me & my loves. Katie was supposed to be looking at MY camera, but she decided to look at her’s instead. boo.

I love how BIG Addie Grace opens her mouth to eat. Hilarious.

I had to post her cute little bloomers.

Oh yeah… we played poker. I won. Twice.

Here are some shots from the gingerbread house creations! I helped Charlie & Katie helped Paul. I have to say it was the highlight of the weekend.

Charlie hard at work:

Paul… love those braces

Charlie’s masterpiece:

The final results:

me & Katie with our precious nephews. I love these boys so much!

Stay tuned for some REAL photography . It’s been super busy on this end, so please bear with me! I am working my hardest to crank it all out. Now that I am finished with most of my Christmas orders and cards it should all go fairly quickly!

Two of our best friends, Ryan & Mary, had their engagement party on Friday! We had tons of fun, but missed our friends who were not able to make it. Here are a few snapshots from the night. It was a cocktail party at The Palmetto Club here in Columbia. HAPPY ENGAGEMENT, Ryan & Mary!! Can’t WAIT until March 27th!!

Ryan’s parents:

Daniel & Joanna are getting married on June 12. I took their engagement pictures a few weeks ago at the USC Horseshoe. They are such a sweet couple and I can’t wait to photograph their wedding! It seems so far away, but it will be here before we know it! ENJOY!!

They took a few with Joanna’s dog Abby. She was so funny- very photogenic because every time I said, “Abby! Squirrel?” she looked straight at me (or in my general direction). 

Thanks, you two! It was fun!
