Venue to remember: Plantation at Sunnybrook

Like I said in my previous post, this is definitely an amazing place. The history alone makes the Plantation at Sunnybrook worth visiting, but do check their food as well. I can tell you from experience, scrumptious! They offer everything the discerning bride could want for her wedding, from stunning ceremony locations to the cake! Oh, the cake! Mouth watering and so beautiful! And the crew at the Plantation is so nice and gracious! Some of the most hospitable I've ever had the true honor of meeting. Next time you are in Roanoke, stop by.

The Wedding of Kylie and Richard...

Yesterday, I got to shoot Kylie and Richard's wedding. While I wasn't officially on the clock for this one, as this was a family wedding, I had an amazing time with two amazing people at an amazing place! The wedding and reception took place at the Plantation at Sunnybrook, a truly stunning location. The ceremony was an intimate affair with the closest of family and friends in attendance. Kylie's aunt Michele was the officiant and provided a beautiful and spiritual ceremony. Here are some of my favorite images from their wedding (I'm always shocked sometimes at the acrobatic positions some grooms will get into to avoid cake in the face). And please check out the Plantation's website, I'll post more on them tomorrow!

Josh's 1st Birthday shoot...

It's amazing to see kids grow before your eyes, and it's even harder to see them go from being held as a newborn, to walking in no time! I got to shoot Josh last week for his birthday and this little guy is so quick! I mean, you could have him sitting then he is chasing the cat in the blink of an eye! But what a doll and those eyes are just too beautiful!

Chris & Jennifer's engagement session...

I'm a few days late getting Chris and Jennifer's engagement session posted, so please forgive me. Between work, editing, and a sick family, life doesn't always go according to plan. But the plan for Chris and Jennifer is a wedding on 10-10-10! I had fun with these two last Tuesday at Dannely Park. And poor Chris, I know guys hate having pictures taken, and he was such a trooper! He even climbed up the kiddy play equipment repeatedly so I could get just the right shot! I hope you enjoy this preview...

Brittani's Senior Session...

This week I've been busy! Tuesday was an engagement shoot (I'll post those tomorrow) and today was Brittani's senior session. Racing against the sun, we got in some great shots before it got too late! And Brittani, a senior at Carroll County, was such fun, even after I had her wading into the New River with me! She is such an amazing young woman and I hope she had as fun a time as I did! Here's a preview of her session...
