Hey all,
I, along with a couple of friends are teaching a number of classes this summer and fall. I love teaching. I love sharing my knowledge to those who are willing to listen with an open mind and an open heart. Click the “Pages” link up top to find out what classes my friends and I are offering.
I’m in love with this wedding! and the people in it!!!
Michelle and Ryan were such a blast to work with. They are both kind, genuine and always mindful and thoughtful of other people. Their friends and families were a treat to meet and party with. We were honored to be a part of this wonderful celebration.

         
LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. Just sayin,!
 
Ron took a photograph of me taking photographs of the boys.

Remember Heidi and Anthony ? These 2 looked so good and cute, i wanted to pinch their cheeks.
It was a wedding full of magic, love, connection, and emotion. I’ve been looking forward to Heidi and Anthony since the day they commissioned me to be their photographer. I loved every minute of my experience with these two whether it’d be just a phone call, or a facebook message exchange. Heidi and Anthony are kind, sweet and genuine people who care about other people. Every fiber of my body was touched by what i have witnessed during this celebration. I am very grateful that we got to be a part of it.
 
I just    

I just LOVE Heidi’s expression here. LOVE the engravings too on Anthony’s ring. 
Yup, it takes that many to help a bride put on a dress. Every bride needs her support group.
 
Hattie’s shot this. LOVe it.
   
Another shot by Hattie. She went to town with my Canon 300mm 2.8L  
A clever shot by Hattie from behind, while i take pictures of the couple from the front.
 
LOVE the light in this series. So delicious!
  
This was at the 17th Island Hole. I am so glad we were able to get on there. I feel sorry for the golfers who had to wait. But you can’t really get mad at a woman wearing THE white dress. It’s her day.  
And another shot by Hattie. Love the angle and the composition on this. To the left of this picture, do you see my arm?
Thank you for looking.

Remember Kristi and Ziga?
Kristi and Ziga’s wedding was one of those weddings where shots after shots, stories after stories were unfolding before my very eyes. I didn’t have to look for them. Things just kept popping up in front of me and all i had to do was to point and shoot. The light was gorgeous everywhere i went. Kristi and Ziga and company were a DELIGHT to work with. Positive energy were all over the place. And we loved it. Sometimes, in events like these, i just stand back and take a second and ask myself, “i do this for a living? i actually get compensated to shoot beautiful images that’s already there and make a living doing it and have a blast at the same time? How blessed am i?”
Anyhoo, the beautiful images would not have materialized without the expertise of the megastar wedding planner, decorator and bride whisperer Stacey Fraunfelter of Red Letter Events. Such an amazing, hard working, detail-oriented person to work with. Love her!
So in closing, Dr. Kristi Norris is one awesome bride. Dr. Ziga Cizma is one great guy. Both, i had the absolute pressure to meet, and got to know. I wish they lived closer.
I will now stop chatting, and let the images tell their stories.

     
Here’s me, trying to get some shots of the father of the bride, minutes before the ceremony starts.

Here’s me again, going for the shot and trying to be less obtrusive, (thanks Ron!).
    
      
So lovely.
just gorgeous light. LOVIN’ IT!

I love and adore these two, Dr. Lindsay and Mr. Matt Stewart. If you keep up with this blog or my tweets, i often touch on love and connection. That’s one thing that i look for in every couple when i take photographs of them. It is easier because love and excitement and zest naturally flows out in the open. I found that right away when Lindsay, Matt and I did their engagement session. They had an amazing love for each other. Their connection is so visible and that you could just tell that this one will last forever!
Anyhoo, with so many doctors at this wedding, i’ve never felt so safe It was definitely a blast working with Lindsay and Matt from day 1. I’ve been looking forward to this wedding and i am so stoked to get the images we were able to create.
We were able to work with the fabulous Cindy Zingerella and team of Engaging Event
Church: St Lukes Chapel
Reception: Rice Mill Building
Catering: Good Food Catering
Band: Flashback
Florist: Judy Johnston

I’m lucky to have several of my images place on International Society of Professional Wedding Photographer’s (ISPWP) Quarterly Contest. Check them out,,,



 
If I were given the opportunity to thank anyone for this recognition, i thank my amazing clients who trust me (and my team) and for being as committed as i am (if not more) in capturing some great images of their wedding day. I would also like to thank my assistants that worked with me to cover these weddings, Ron Montgomery and Hattie Coryell. They give me a lot of room and a lot of help and support to make it possible for me “to play” and nail the shots i envisioned. So thank you Ron and Hattie!
Wedding season has been in full swing since March and we have a ton of events to share, including our family portrait session, photographed by our amazing friends, Nathan and Mell Bell at Richard Bell Photography.
So stay tuned,,,

i heart e-sessions. It gives the opportunity to get to know my clients, on more of a personal level. i honestly think that my wedding images are better when i photograph my couples way before the wedding. What do you think?
Here’s Alison and Andrew who are tying the knot in November. I can’t wait!
much love,
V
… and they are to marry this weekend at the beautiful Lowndes Grove Plantation.
I can hardly wait,,,
