In preparation for the upcoming Capital City Bike Fest we got some shots of Mike’s Sportster. I have a few shots of him with the bike but since he won the Sportster class at the Ray Price open house earlier this year I thought it would be cool to shoot just the bike. The changes to his bike are subtle but make a big difference compared to a stock bike. If you are into motorcycles you should check out the event this weekend in downtown Raleigh. Stop by our booth and say hi. Jatana will be there at least. I’ll be running around taking pictures.

If you have boys then you know they have some energy. Lots of energy! What better way to burn off some of that energy than getting a bunch of them together with a home made (the best kind) slip’n slide. First Baptist Garner Royal Ambassadors kicked off the new year with a slip’n slide on church campus.  I think they had fun. :)

For those not familiar with RAs, it’s a missions based group for boys in 1st through 5th grade. We do fun things like camping, fishing, and other outdoor activities all while learning about missions and reaching people at home and abroad with the gospel of Christ. If you have a boy that might be interested feel free to get in touch with me or come check us out on Wednesday nights at First Baptist in Garner (there’s also a group for the girls called GAs).

I can’t believe the summer is almost over and we have a second grader! We are so thankful he enjoys going to school (most of the time).

And there’s Andrew. His preschool starts next week. I didn’t get a shot of it but when he got back in the van after dropping off Luke he was real quiet and a little sad. So sweet.

Due to a few technical issues it’s been a while since I have been able to post anything. Hopefully everything has been resolved!

We had a great time shooting Morgan and Mike’s wedding at the Matthews House in Cary. A great venue makes my job easier! Somehow the typical North Carolina afternoon thunderstorms spared us and actually provided us with some amazing afternoon light. I love shooting a wedding that ends with a fun reception. DJ Mike Morse provided the non-stop music and judging by the photos I’m pretty sure they had a good time!

I have been excited to shoot Erica and Grant’s wedding since I shot their engagement session. Combine a great looking couple with some great venues from getting ready to reception and you can’t miss.  They also opted to see each other for photos before the ceremony. This is a personal decision for everyone but after the ceremony we were done with family photos and at the reception in less than thirty minutes! Most people opt for the more traditional route but it’s something to think about! A special thanks to Lauren of North Hills Club and Taylor Pittman of Taylor Made DJ Services for their hospitality at the reception! Check out a few of my favorites from the day.
