The Ray Family

The greatest compliment that a photographer can ever receive is to become a family’s photographer year after year.  I have been so fortunate to have this relationship with the Ray family– I photographed Matt and Carly’s wedding, I have photographed Bradford’s first year and this weekend we did a big family session for their holiday cards. It just so happened to also be Bradford’s birthday so we took a few images with his new toy and went inside for cake and ice cream!

University Center Club Bridal Show TONIGHT!

The Annual University Center Club Bridal Show is TONIGHT at 6pm!  It is on the 3rd floor in the UCC ballroom and is always an absolute blast!  We are giving away a FREE engagement session and I know lots of other vendors who are also giving away GREAT prizes!

So, have some fun on a boring Monday night– come try free food, win stuff and chat with Olyn and I!  Well, Ok, just chat with me… Olyn is kinda boring!  :)

Baby Madelyn

Baby Madelyn was in the studio this morning for her newborn portrait session– I swear she is a doll come to life!  We really had a great session with both Madelyn and her parents!  I love the images so much, I am giving them an extended blog post!

Big Boy Bradford!

Bradford is a year old and is just too cute!  I had a session with him and his family at the farm yesterday and it was so much fun!  We started in Bradford’s room and then went outside to play.  I swear this little guys curls came out of nowhere!

Maureen & Joe

I was sooo happy to get out of the studio yesterday for an engagement shoot in Southwood.  It was such a beautiful day, I was itching for an excuse to get away from the computer!  I love Maureen and Joe and I really can’t wait for their January wedding!  We had a blast with their shoot– we started out at the Southwood Plantation House and moved over to the Southwood lake.

Baby Arden

Baby Arden was in the studio this morning for her 6 month portraits.  This little girl wanted to check out everything in the studio… except me!  I always have to laugh at myself when I realize the things I do to get children to look in my direction.  This job definitely makes you keep your sense of humor!

Big Bridal Events this weekend!

So, I should have blogged about this last week, but we have been so slammed I just didn’t get to it!  If you are getting married or know someone who is getting married– you need to know about this!

On Sunday, September 28th the Tallahassee Association of Wedding Professionals is offering a FREE bridal workshop from 2-5pm at the University Center Club.  There will be presentations from photographers, florists, wedding planners, cake bakers, etc.  From start to finish, the best wedding professionals in Tallahassee will be there to answer your questions, offer advice and give you insight on how to have a great wedding.  Seriously, if you don’t go to any other bridal event– go to this one!  The workshops will tell you what to expect from your vendors, how to choose your vendors, how to save money and how to keep it all organized!  It will give you an opportunity to ask all of your questions and get some real, practical information.

The following evening, Monday September 29th is the Annual University Center Club Bridal Show.  Its like a mall of wedding vendors.  Not sure what kind of cakes you like, or whose photography is your style?  Save yourself some time and come to the bridal show, where you can see it all side by side.  The best part??  Win free stuff!  There are tons of doorprizes, coupons and giveaways!

We really want to see all of our 2009 brides there, so any of our brides who come to either event will receive credit for a FREE 8×10 of one of their wedding images!  So, please come out, say hi and have some fun with us!!
