My sister is married!!! She had the most incredible wedding! Everything was perfect, weather, location, flowers, people, food. Everything! We, as a family were able to gather together for the weekend and have some fun! The cabins were amazing! The kids loved the swings, and the ping-pong table!
On Saturday, the guys went white-water rafting, while we female’s had a spa day! Molly needed pretty feet!
Amy, my incredibly talented artistic sister, painted a marriage contract for Mike and Molly! It was amazing! Putting on the finishing touches.
My Grandmother enjoying the scenery.
When the men returned, we not only heard about their trip, they had pictures! It was funny!
Mike and Molly!
The rehearsal dinner.
Sunday, August 10th was the wedding day! Because of my role as bridesmaid, I didn’t photograph as much as I would have liked. We left that up to the amazing Regina Holder, who did a wonderful job and I can’t wait to see her images!
A few of Molly’s preperation
I did, however, have the chance to spend about 15 minutes with Molly before we left the cabins for the farm where the wedding took place. I must say, I was blown away by how gorgeous and sexy my little sister looked! She rocked these images!
Claxton Farms was the site of wedding and it was amazing! The staff did an wonderful job and truly exceeded our expectations!
Studio Flora Diva did a wonderful job with the flowers! They were gorgeous!
Molly looking beautiful…..

The cake! Tiffany was sooo creative and Molly almost cried when she saw it!
My family! Mom…

My girls had a blast dancing!
Mom signed the marriage certificate.
Mike pulled off the most amazing get-away ever! He called in a helicopter! As my brother said, he pretty much trumped anything any other guy could do! Everyone was shocked!
Mike and Molly, I am so happy for you! You are off to an amazing start and I pray your life together is blessed and happy! I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU’RE MARRIED!!!!!!!!!
Blessings, Lori

We are back and it sure does feel good to be home! I have mountains of laundry to sort through and many pictures to process! I will share some as soon as I can. However, I wanted to share these images first as I loved how this all came together!
We attend church and Sunday School with Andy and Emilie. A few weeks ago, at a picnic, my husband had a conversation with them about summer vacation. As it turned out, they were headed to the same beach, only a few miles from where we stay. Even more fun was that they would be there most of the same week! As life would have it, I was not privy to this conversation. I was on one of my multiple trips to the ladies restroom with at least a few of my precious (Mommy, I have to go potty now!) girls! Being that we had to pack up from the picnic, load up the 6 kiddos, drive home, take baths, read stories, brush teeth, put them to bed and then collapse ourselves, Jeryl somehow forgot to tell me!
A few days before we left we were having a conversation about all the people we knew that would be at the beach during our trip. It seemed uncanny how many familiar faces we would see while there. Jeryl then informed me of the Ashworth’s plans. Knowing how much Emilie had been wanting to have pictures made, and jumping at the chance to photograph her beautiful girls on the beach, I gave her a call. They were leaving the next morning and us the day after that. The timing was perfect!
Enough talk! Enjoy this gorgeous family!
Ella loved the grass!
This is Olivia. She likes to play lifeguard!
I love the light in this one and I adore candid family images!
Meet Ava. She never stops!
The girls found this pool and started to dig. So cute!
Hello!!!! Are you sure you’re the parents of 3! Wow!
Andy and Emilie, I’m so happy that this worked out for us! I loved spending time with you and your girls and I am in love with your images!
*********Don’t forget to watch your slideshow*********
I’ll see you soon! Blessings!
And they’re off…..!

We are headed to the beach for a week of fun! Hopefully it’s not too hot!
In looking at some paperwork the other day, I realized that this month is officially my 1 year anniversary! In July 2007, I started up my website and blog and told the world that I could do this! It’s been an amazing year and I am so grateful to everyone who has supported me. To celebrate, I am giving away a $25.00 iTunes gift card!
Here’s the deal - Below is a picture of my daughter last year at the beach. Come up with a caption for this photo! Leave a comment or send me an e-mail with your caption. You have until Sunday, July 27th to enter. When we return, I will pick my favorite! Ready, set, go!!!
Have a wonderful week!
Note: All order will be filled, and e-mails/calls will be returned when we are back. Thanks for your patience.
