The Anderson's

Walt and Carolina have got to be some of the sweetest people i know, with two adorable little girls.  What a cute family! Walt is the youth pastor at Ocean Drive Presbyterian church, so i thought that would be a great place for their photos! I had so much fun with these guys, here are some of my fav's...

Lance & Jana Denny

Before I left I had the opportunity to photograph some friends of ours and their new addition!  And let me tell you little miss Candence is well loved!  She came with her own entourage of hair, make-up and wardrobe!  Its hard work being adorable!




Thanksgiving

I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving this year!  I know I did,  and I think I ate enough for 3!  Here are just a few pics of Thanksgiving day with my family while we are waiting on the Turkey!

This is my husband Trey, isn't he handsome!?

          Matt, my bro-inlaw frying the turkey... seemed like a dangerous job! But it was good!

The Bellamy Family

        My last shoot of the day today was of some friends of ours, the Bellamy's,  Shaun, Corey and little Ella Grace.  I had a lot of fun with these guys and had a very very hard time choosing just a few images to post!  They had tons!  I just have to say besides Ella Grace having the cutest name ever, she has the most beautiful blue eyes... daddy is going to have to beat the boys away with a stick! 
                     
   

  Ella Grace had a hard time keep her shoes on so i thought this was appropriate! 
this is one of my favs!


i just love those eyes!



Miss North Myrtle Beach High

This weekend I was a busy little bee! Along with several shoots (which i will be posting sneak peaks soon!)  I had the privilege  of shooting the girls of The Miss North Myrtle Beach Pageant.  They all did such a good job and looked so beautiful!  Here are just a few of my favorites!
            

      Congratulations to Ms. Mary Elizabeth! She is an all around outstanding girl!

Christmas Portrait Special

I am running a Christmas Portrait Special.  Book now, appointment times are limited and going fast! 

The Boyers

Monday I had a chance to shoot The Boyer's Family.  I had a great time with them and just fell in love with their cowboy theme!  They all did so wonderful, and smiled on que...and I'm talking real smiles (that rarely happens)! I joked and told them that i didn't even have to sing to make them smile... which is a GOOD thing, trust me!  Here is a quick sneak peak of their beautiful family...



The McCormick Family

I was honored when I got the phone call from a local photographer for me to do their family portraits.  The location was absolutely perfect! I just love the uniqueness of the cabin. I had a great time with Ashley and her husband, and their two beautiful children Alexis and Allen were wonderful!  Here are a few of my favorites.

Michael & Rebekah

I had the wonderful opportunity to shoot a destination wedding in  the beautiful Rivera Maya, Mexico.  Everything about it was stunning.  It had rained quite a bit before their big day,  but that day the weather was in their favor!  Thanks to Michael and Rebekah for letting me capture this gorgeous event!  Here are just a few of my fav's,  I had a ton so it was really hard to choose!
