JESSICA + MARK | RICHMOND VA WEDDING
August 26, 2008

Ceremony and Reception Venue :: Willow Oaks Country Club

Wedding Coordination and Planning:: Occassions

Florals :: Floraculture

Cake :: Cakes by Graham


Photo Gallery Available September 1st

 

I spent Saturday afternoon with the families of Jessica and Mark in Richmond, Virginia for their fabulous wedding at Willow Oaks Country Club. Brent and I met up with Jessica at her parents home where she was having her makeup finished by Vamps & Vixens makeup artists. Meanwhile, a few miles away, Paige was helping me out with the guys getting ready.

Dee from Occassions Events met us Willow Oaks where she was busy with day off staging. Jessica got her veil pinned in and scooted off for a first look with Mark. She was anxious but radiant as ever. She has a beautiful smile that fills the room and its so sweet how Mark adores her. Can't you just feel the love. Such a sweet couple with a great sense of humor and fun all the way around from their dance down the aisle to their funky glow stick exit.

Thanks Jessica and Mark for letting us celebrate with you!

HAPPY MONDAY!
August 18, 2008

Just a picture today from our funny beagle, Bozzie! She won't look at the camera anymore. I think its the equivalent of your kids (well she is LIKE a kiddo to us) running and hiding when you get the camera out. But she was hot and all tired out when I turned the camera on her and was too lazy to run away.

MONDAY NIGHT RAW
August 12, 2008

We had tickets for WWE's Monday Night RAW which is broadcast live on the USA Network. I've been a wrestling fan since I was a teenager and unbelievably enough this was my first LIVE wrestling event. I was super excited and was only disappointed that I didn't get to see a real Ric Flair "WOOOOOOOOOO-oooooooooHHHHHH".

 

Here are some memorable and fun moments ... I took these with my point and shoot Nikon D40 since professional equipment isn't allowed in the arena. One of the most entertaining parts of WWE events is getting to see all of the fan signs. There were a lot of John Cena fans (more about Cena later) in the arena so no surprise to see this one:

  

JBL (or John "Bradshaw" Layfield), who some of you may recognize from Fox News/CNBC where he is a regular panelist and whose wife is featured in the cover story of Fortune magazine this week, tries to offer the current reigning Heavyweight Champ, Punk a truce via a shot of Jack Daniels. I applaud Punk for his positive messaging and standing true to the values that made him so uniquely him and refusing the Jack Daniels but toasting JBL with a shot of his own.

One of my favorite parts of the night was when hometown girl, Mickie James got annihilated and owned by the Glamazon, Beth Phoenix! I love Beth and wish more female wrestlers actually... well, wrestled. Santino Marello also had some choice words. He's a maniac and funny as hell!

 

Cena and Batista "The Animal" partnered for an unlikely tag team match and ended up in an all out brawl as a lead up to their pay per view Summer Slam match next week. These guys are complete maniacs!

There was even a special guest in the audience -- George Thorogood, whose apparently a huge wrestling fan as well.

JULIA + NOAH |SAVANNAH GA
August 05, 2008

View Proof Gallery Here

Last Saturday I was back in action in my hometown of Savannah, Georgia. I heard there had been 108F heat advisories all week. That could only mean one thing in Savannah ... it's AUGUST! Storms had rolled in on Friday evening and I was worried about what the weather was going to be like on Saturday. Believe it or not, the skies opened up into the bluest fields with wonderful white fluffy clouds by midday! I know they say rain is good luck on your wedding day, but its still rain.

Julia was finishing up her makeup when we arrived at the gorgeous River Street Inn. The Inn has bright, open rooms with floor to ceiling windows that make great window light.

I always gravitate immediately to the dress and shoes. Well... what gal doesn't love shoes! These are some of my favorites. Sexy and look pretty comfy!

  

As we started making our way outside to head for the church, we noticed this seatee in the hallway. I love shooting in Savannah's Inns because they have some really nice accents in the decor. We spent a few minutes doing some nice low light portraits. Here is my favorite:

Then we snuck outside to the alley. Did I mention Julia was a radiantly beautiful bride.

  

Off to the church, the amazing Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. A few quick details as everyone is arriving. Hydrangeas have been in almost all of my weddings this year. It doesn't get any more Southern than that!

After a beautiful mass ceremony, we finished some quick family portraits in the cathedral and moved outside for more casual pictures. It's all about the interaction! The girls all look beautiful.

Congratulations Julia & Noah!
