Hi friends!  I hope this Thursday finds you well and keeping cool.  :)  Seems like the humidity has officially kicked in here in the Carolina's.  Bleh.  Anyway, some fun news to share today. :)

This August we will be speaking at the Wedding Photographic Society Convention in Raleigh, NC.  It is a real honor and privilege to be asked to speak, but I can't help but feel a little bit nervous and unqualified!  Mostly, though, we are excited.  :) 

For more information about this great local photography conference or to reserve your spot, go to the WPS site!

This photobooth....ohhhhhhhhh, this photobooth.  

One word.  Cheerleaders.  

We had cheerleaders in the bridal party.  Which meant they would attempt full on stunts and very impressive jumping.  I thought for SURE our backdrop was going to fall to the ground on this wedding.  

I loved these people.  So very fun.

CarrieDerekBooth_0010.jpgCarrieDerekBooth_0011.jpgThis was the jump - the good old pike jump - that I thought would be the end of the photobooth.  Luckily, it survived.

CourtneyRichWedding_0001.jpg
Call me crazy, but when I see or even HEAR about the color blush...my heart races.  I don't know why...I just have a mild obsession with the color.  Now, put wedding dress in a shade of blush in front of me...forget about it.  Courtney's wedding dress....it. was. amazing.  Yes, it was.  I may have overdone it on pictures of her in it.  :)

I just loved the simplicity of this wedding - truly, a beautiful day with a beautiful couple.  I've convinced that just being around Courtney and Rich make you feel like a better, nicer person...these two are exceptionally nice...you can't help for it to rub off on you.  And let me tell you - this was such a relaxing and stress-free day...it was one of those weddings I felt like I was just along for the ride.  Just felt super calm and in the moment.  I love days like this one was.  

Courtney and Rich - you two are such special people.  Geoff and I wish you SO much happiness for your future together.  xoxo.
