ana and eric’s wedding on kiawah island was so so pretty.  i love outdoor weddings- especially this time of year.

the brandenburg wedding: sept. 13th, 2008

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

 

venue: deerpark restaurant    florals:  flower gallery   music:  atlanta beat

amanda and mark’s wedding at the biltmore house  was quite simply put, amazing.  it had all the ingredients of a perfect wedding:  a stunning  bride and groom, a gorgeous day with blue skies and phenomenal clouds, a remarkable venue, and full of great emotion.  amanda and mark choose to see each other beforehand which made for some really fantastic images and a great flow to the day.  i almost felt at times like i had taken a step back in time into a 1940’s-era movie.  amanda has a very distinct, classic style, and the wedding was non-stop with great events and moments.  i’m going to let the photos do the talking this time…. amanda and mark:  i couldn’t be happier for you guys.

the mulligan wedding: 08-30-08

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

 

it’s so flattering when other artists hire me to photograph their wedding.  when ryan and kathryn contacted me last september i knew we were a match made in wedding photographer heaven.  ryan teaches art at the university of cincinnati and kathryn is a top notch graphic designer for procter and gamble.   they are expressive, goofy, full of life, and huge big kids (they got engaged in disney world)!  well august 30th finally rolled around and there they were– reciting their vows on a mountain top overlooking the beautiful cliffs of glassy.    ryan just absolutely adores kathryn and i loved watching them interact throughout the day.

the reception was held at the gorgeous westin poinsett hotel in greenville, sc.  the gold ballroom had the original dance floor from the 1930s.  the ceiling and chandelliers are also original.  ryan and kathryn had been taking dance lessons to prepare for their first dance.  the lessons more than paid off!  they left the floor smokin’!

so check out the cake and then look at the wallpaper below that decorates the ballroom-  kathryn used the wallpaper design as her inspiration for the cake decor.  the detail was amazing!  mandy powell who was their wedding planner guru did a great job in making their vision come to life.
