BBQ, Horseshoes & Fun!

I LOVE my fisheye Lomo! This small film camera is perfect for candid, fun photos. Here's how we spent a Sunday afternoon with two of our favorite people in the world. I can almost smell the grill and taste the margaritas now...

Engagement Photos @ Beaver Lake...

I met Carole and Andrew at Beaver Lake on Sunday. They were so fun to photograph and are such great spirits. I'm really looking forward to their wedding in July!

Breakfast of Champions

Keeping in mind I'm going to have a very long work day today (a beautiful wedding in Lenoir), I cooked a large and tasty breakfast: scrambled eggs with cheese, and my boyfriends favorite, blueberry pancakes. I think this will hold me over, for a while...

Old Band Photos

These are just a few favorite photos I've taken in the past of some really great bands. I love all these guys, The Trainwrecks, Pierce Edens, and the Oh So Sweet Lindsay Wojcik. All are taken at the Grey Eagle, and some from when they hosted the Fresh Air Benefit back in 2007.

Memorial Day Weekend

Here's how my darling boyfriend spent his Memorial Day afternoon... Doesn't it look so relaxing?

Tanner the MODEL

On a recent visit to the North Asheville Animal Hospital, they took Tanner's picture and posted it on their blog. Check out his mug, he is just too cute! And a shout out to Doctor Duncan and the wonderful staff that take care of our baby, you guys are amazing.

A Donation to the Animal Compassion Network

I'm donating 5% of profits from every wedding package to the Animal Compassion Network. I adopted my dog Tanner from them and think they are an incredible animal welfare organization. Following a no-kill philosophy, they foster homeless dogs and cats until they find forever homes. I believe every pet deserves a loving home. My dog has brought so much love and light into my life, and it's organizations like this that gave me the chance to find him. To learn more about the ACN or if you're looking for a special furry friend, please visit their website. You can also help support them not only with a monetary donation, but also by volunteering at one of their adoption events or becoming a foster parent.
