So Becca's family, you already know I love them!  I had the pleasure of flying out to Texas to shoot their engagement session...hanging out in Charleston for her bsesh and then shooting her wedding just a few short weeks ago with awesome Stacy.  We always have a blast shooting together and this was no exception.  The labeled shots, the 3 "guy shots" are hers, the cake topper...and the dress hanging shot as well are all Stacy. 
If you ware wondering about their "send off" photo...the funny thing is when they were younger, money was a little scarce (sound familiar to anyone!?).  Becca's mom would give her brother Heath and her a toilet paper roll and tell her to blow it and go "do do do" in the end of it.  You know a little homemade noise maker...so they would.  At my house we always played handkerchief and took turns trying to grab a hanky from someone holding it high in the air.
Anyway, they decorated "do do dos" for everyone to blow as they ran off into the night.  You guys I can't say enough about you cause you are awesome together.  Hope to spend a vacay with you someday soon!  Wanna cruise?

My bride/friend forever!! ha!! that is so cheesy I can't believe I even typed it.  Well it is one of those days.  I have to have a root canal today and it is Betsy's b-day...so I'll have a sore mouth at Chuck E. Cheese's.  It doesn't get much better than that!!
Last night couldn't have gone better at the Center for Photography...Thanks for everyone that came out to hear me gab.  In spite of the weather there was a good crowd.  One attendee mentioned he had been shooting longer than I have been alive!!!  Great talking to everyone!  Us photogs come in all ages, shapes, sizes, nationalities..it is wonderful.  There is def a photog out there for every kind of bride! 
I never knew I could talk for an hour without stopping...And then answer questions!!

onto my fabulous Rebecca!!! 
I just love her...that is what called for the cheese earlier.
She sent me text messages from her honeymoon!!!  I have enjoyed getting to know Rebecca so much, I just can't tell you.  I love her family and her friends/cousins like crazy.  I know she is glad all the planning and driving (they drove from Texas to get married in Charleston) is over, but I sure hope the texts and fb messages don't stop.  You rocked it Becca!!!  I was like 8 1/2 months pregnant at this shoot and it was sooooo hot...but so much fun.  There is never a dull moment with Becca and her awesome mom Doris...I think the adoption papers are almost done...sorry Mom ; )

Ash~ love, love, LOVE the pics you chose for the blog. We all had such a blast with you and the texts/FB posts will NEVER end! When I was looking for a photographer and I saw your stuff it had so much life and personality to it and I love that. You allow the personality of the person to come through in the photos. I was looking for a photographer and I found a good friend in the process - tell the kids that they're welcome in Texas any time!! Muah! (Hope your mouth feels better)
