Talk about having mighty subjects to photograph! This session was such a blast, not only with Tim and Mikaela, but with these two majestic newfoundlands Will and Chaucer. We headed out to Sullivan's Island and explored the unbelievably cool grounds of the Edgar Allen Poe Library, then let the dogs run free on the beach. As a photographer I was loving the overcast, windy, and hazy day that provided for some amazing images. Enjoy!
Mikaela, Tim, Will, and Chaucer















It's a wonderful privilege to be chosen to photograph truly important events in a person's life. In this case, Caroline and Nick have also chosen me to photograph their wedding and judging by their effortless connection, it's going to be a breeze! I love when couples move well in each other's space and create beautiful moments for me to capture.
Can't wait for the big day!
Caroline and Nick














This woman is so easy to work with for so many reasons! We had a blast taking these portraits and I have to say we talked and joked WAY more that I photographed. Did I mention her skin is perfect, too?!
Not only is she sweet and pretty, but she is an amazing dentist. Her office is gorgeous, her staff is top notch, and everyone does great work. Check out Water's Edge Dentistry in Mount Pleasant. I'm a believer:)

I wrote this on Facebook and have gotten such an overwhelming response that I wanted to blog it as well.
I want to remind myself of this every day.
This is to my son:
"Oh Liam I love you so much. I love you even when I have to wipe your snot on my own sleeve or when you share my water and leave me tiny pieces of floating crackers, I love you when, out of the blue, you tell me I'm so pretty and that you love me, I love you when you pick a neighbor's flower and give it to me, and especially when you ask me to play a game with you or to read a book. I will always play, I will get dirty with you, I will run through puddles with you, and I will kiss your ouchies. I will study your face and movements every day because you are growing and changing so quickly. I will be conscious of how it feels to hold your little hand and what your body feels like when we hug. I could go on and on. I love you little boy...
And I won't be so quick to pick up your toys bc someday they won't be there on the floor, and I'll leave some finger prints on the windows because they make me smile. I'll laugh to myself when you mispronounce things and make your own special words, I'll frame way too many works of art and wallpaper the house in your creations, I'll breathe in your smell whether it's after a bath or a day playing in the mud. I'll share too many pictures of you on Facebook:) You are amazing. Ok, I'll stop now that I'm teary!"
My son and I love the petting zoo at Magnolia Plantation! It's really an incredible place and the surrounding gardens are absolutely beautiful. I love seeing the joy on Liam's face when he pets these friendly animals. Of course, he wants to hug and cuddle with them and can't understand why they squirm away. We will be enjoying this spot for a long time!
