Matt's 33rd birthday day at Pine Mountain Animal Park

For Matt's B-Day, we headed south to see and feed the free roaming animals. We were the third car to enter the park, and let me tell you, the animals were hungry and waiting for us. We weren't expecting them to try and get in the car! I guess we should have picked up on it when we discovered they sold "Slobber Towels" at the park. It was pretty neat to be that close to the animals. Kai-Lin did not like the big animals - she had us roll up her window for most of the safari. However, she did want to take some of the little deer home. It was a great birthday adventure none of us will soon forget.

We went to the car wash before we went home. Notice the carefully placed animal slobber all over the windows.

Joe and Christina's Wedding in Athens

I'm always honored and humbled when I'm given the chance to photograph a wedding. The awesome responsibility of capturing photos that brings a bride and groom back to a moment or feeling is so rewarding. It's a task I perform with great pride. I loved photographing Joe and Christina because they were so calm and easy going in a church that was stunning. It was a pleasure working with Mary Coggins from Consultants Unlimited. She effortlessly ran the wedding for everyone involved.

Thank you to Sara for second shooting.

It was moving to see the pride on Joe's face during the toast.

Sean and Laura's Wedding

Sean and Laura couldn't have asked for a prettier day for their charming wedding that started in Cartersville and ended in a beautiful field in Taylorsville, GA. It was fitting for them to go to nature for their reception since they met at Yellowstone National Park where they both worked. We wish them much happiness and a life full of adventure.







































Thank you Lauren for your last minute help while Melissa is on Maternity leave.
