Sabrina and Jeremy's Wedding Photos

On February 19, 2011 I photographed Sabrina and Jeremy's wedding. This was not a photo shoot I had planned, but I cannot tell you how happy I was to be apart of this memory. I received a phone call on the Monday prior to the wedding by a friend and was asked to take the pictures. Sabrina and Jeremy would be married on Saturday, and the photographer had been canceled at the last minute. I was so nervous, but I also knew that I needed to take this job. How can you refuse to help a young couple capture their wedding day? This was one of the best experiences I have ever had. It was a great day for me, and I can only hope that I truly captured the love of not only Sabrina and Jeremy, but of their family. What a fun-loving, good hearted group of people! They made me feel very welcomed, and didn't mind that I was invading their personal moments throughout the day. I hope you all enjoy the pictures. I wish a lifetime of happiness to Sabrina and Jeremy. Thank you to the Longo family for allowing me to be apart of your family for a day!

Ali Jade

"Little girls are just angels who haven't yet spread their wings."

 The best part of my new passion is getting to be apart of my family and friends lives in ways I never could before. I get to help capture sweet memories! On January 22, 2011 I took pictures of sweet, Ali Jade. She is the brand new daughter of Kate and Brian. Kate and I have been friends since we started high school at Advanced Technologies Academy. We had classes together, went to prom, homecomings, Friday night dates, senior ditch days, and all the fun high school entails. We shared tears, laughter, and friendship throughout 4 long years of high school. Our paths separated after graduation, but have recently crossed again. I was honored when Kate asked me to take pictures of her new baby girl! Here are my favorites!








Thanks Kate, Brian, and Ali for sharing this time with me.

The Winder Family

On December 26, 2010 I met up with the Winder Family to take family pictures. We started at the entrance of Silverstone Golf Course, and then moved to the Italian Villa themed clubhouse.  I just have to say that this is a great family! I have known Hoai-My and Greg for years, having taught with both of them at O'Callaghan Middle School. Hoai-My and Greg have 4 boys: Jesse, Kel, Luke, and Michael. Just like typical boys, none of them truly wanted their pictures taken, but they were all good sports about it. I have to say, I have even more respect for Hoai-My being the only female in this all boy clan! Thanks for an awesome opportunity and a great way to end 2010. Here are a few of my favorites!
