Happy Birthday Corey

  • 22 Looks Good On You!

I BARELY remember Momma and Daddy telling us that there was going to be a new baby in our family. The only thing I remember was that they told us on their bed one morning in our old house beside the church. I wish I remembered more but I was only 6 years old when you were born!! I was old enough to feel like I needed to look out for you but not quite old enough to remember all the details! However, I do remember a few fun things about being your big sister in the early years and so on your 22nd birthday, I’m going to try to list out 22 of my favorite memories/things I love about you! :

George + Eleni

  • Omni Hotel Richmond, Virginia Greek Wedding

I remember talking with Eleni and her mom before they booked and they asked if I had ever photographed a Greek wedding before. I told them that I had photographed almost 200 weddings at the time but I had never worked with a Greek couple before. They proceeded to tell me everything that I should expect and after experiencing it for myself, they were spot on! Michael and I loved experiencing so many new things. From the traditional rituals at the ceremony to the dances at the Reception, we were entertained all day!!

The Urgency Workflow

  • Ask Anything

This post started because of one Snapchat!! We were away at the Connect Marriage Retreat and we had just shot a wedding the day before and since I blog weddings on the Tuesday morning after the wedding, I had A LOT of work to get down while we were traveling. We flew out on Sunday and as soon as we arrived at the conference center, we had other responsibilities and I knew that if I didn’t gradually get my work done, I would be staying up until 3am on Monday night trying to finish this blog post!!
