I got to shoot Angelina Jolie’s wedding this weekend!!

Ok, not really but take one look at this bride and tell me if you don’t think she’s a dead ringer?!

We also had a gorgeous weekend!  I love outdoor vineyard weddings in general and when its in the low 70’s with beautiful skies, well you just have to thank someone…

Dodging yet another hurricane this weekend!  What a glorious wedding!  The couple had the service commence with a gospel choir singing this is the day down the aisle – MAGIC!

They walked out to Oh happy day!  CHILLS!  And it WAS a happy day!

All the way through to the end!

Ya’ll do know the right people upstairs!  Hurricane Hanna thankfully moved right on by this wedding leaving us with amazing skies, light and weather.  Doesn’t hurt that the bride and groom are super adorable too!

Congratulations!

You might remember these two from their engagement session earlier this summer…

Both the ceremony and reception were held at Valhalla Vineyards.  The view is SPECTACULAR!

The groom getting his groove thing on!

and a rocking image from my obviously very able second Logan Jarrard

Congratulations you two!

I’m so glad that my couples are getting their album orders in before the fall deadlines!  Here’s a gorgeous book from a wedding up in Maryland.

I try to work with other photographers at least a couple of times a year; this weekend, I had the opportunity to work with Lacey Gadwill and gosh the wedding was just too short!  We had a blast!

A big congratulations to Sarah and Clinton!

I just love opening up packages!  Its one of the fun parts of my daily routine!  This one just got here and I have to say the book looks amazing!

Wow!  What a gorgeous day!  One of those that you almost never see in August!  Bright, crisp, no humidity!  It made getting the outdoor images Holly and David wanted sooo much easier! 😉

I also had an extraordinary number of “guest” photographers so hey, I shot over THEIR shoulders!

Congratulations you two!

I love it when I photograph whole families – I photographed David’s sister’s wedding a few years back – remember those days?

and at the wedding…

they brought a new family member!

Tee hee – ok I just like saying that!  But in this case, its true again!  I had sort of gotten out of the habit of entering competitions, just too busy with a toddler, moving twice in one year etc etc.  I finally buckled down this year and started entering again and I’ve already won some!!  How exciting!  Here’s what I heard about today:

From wedcomp.com I’m very pleased with these placements as this comp had some FIERCE photographers!
