Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden was the gorgeous venue for this wedding. Jim and Heather (did I tell you I LOVE red heads?) went all out and showed some amazing style! The grounds were gorgeous and the staff was amazing!
Look at this couple! Gorgeous!
And you know how much I love those ring shots, so here’s one more for ya!
The crew at Ribald Farms did an amazing job on the flowers, didn’t they? WOW!

My daddy always said I wasn’t a true southerner because I was born in Colorado….Pfft, Daddy, only living somewhere 12 months of your entire life doesn’t make you! I’m definitely a Southern Girl! So, when my friend Karen and her red-headed prince, Matthew (did I tell you I LOVE red heads?) hired me to shoot their wedding at Darshana Hall Plantation, I have to admit I was estatic!!! I’m not a history buff, but I adore places like this. The grounds were gorgeous and intimate and the staff was amazing!
Check out these awesome images and note the awesome vendors that participated.

Oh how I love the details! All the efforts put into making a wedding special. This post highlights only a few of the details of a reception I had the honor of helping another photographer capture.
And just because you can never have too many cupcakes – – –

Ring shot LOVE!!!

I recently had the honor of photographing an event for NACE Charlotte. It was one of their monthly meetings, and they were the first people to be cooked for and served by CPCC Charlotte’s Culinary Arts School in their new facility. The food was delicious and the staff was outstanding. I kind of wish I could put a few of the students in my pocket! 😀 Charlotte better look out! These people can really cook….
And just in case you have a sweet tooth like Vinny Esposito of Split Second Sound (oh and me too! :D):
Kudos to the chefs!

Sometimes things happen that are out of the blue, but they touch you so deeply that you can’t ignore them. That’s the case with South Carolina Heart Gallery. Kids in need have always held a special place in my heart. It goes back to my wonderful parents teaching me to care for the less fortunate and those in need. So when a colleague of mine told me about SCHG, I was on board immediately. I asked Program Assistant, Mary Smyrl to help me explain just what SCHG is and it’s purpose:
South Carolina Heart Gallery uses the power of photography to help find adoptive homes for children lingering in foster care. Children in foster care who are legally free and waiting for adoption are referred by DSS. Local photographers donate their services to provide beautiful black and white portraits of the children, reflecting each child’s unique spirit and personality. The portraits are displayed in public venues around the state and on the Heart Gallery website at http://www.scheartgallery.org . Each child also receives an small album with an assortment of the photos taken of them.
Begun in New Mexico in 2001, Heart Gallery is now a national program. South Carolina Heart Gallery was founded in 2005 by Millie Qualls, Program Coordinator, and is a special partnership between the Children’s Foster Care Review Board and the SC Department of Social Services (DSS).
Please take the time to check out their website or Facebook page. Getting the word out there will go a long way in finding a child a home.
