As I sit here editing, uploading, blogging… they snore.
Man, I love Summer.
Posted on August 10, 2010
Man I love summer. I love warm summer nights, I love playing in any kind of water, I love being outside with my animals. I’m infinitely lucky in that I have the free time to spend time living life.
How I’m living:
Apple is doing great, I plan on sitting on her next week. I have had a few people ask if I was going to barrel race her due to her long hair, 30 year-old western saddle, and her Clinton Anderson halter. I am not. I’m really hoping for a very brave event/foxhunting horse so I can jump the big stuff. She’s nosey, brave-ish, PRETTY, emotional, sensible, strong, and happy. She’s a pretty cool little horse.
Shannon came down to Ocala to shoot us for her 2nd B-Day! :)
I finally made it back to my Alma Mater to hike to the House of Dreams. I didn’t take this pic and it dosen’t really do it justice. The House of Dreams was build by the students in 1922 as a gift to the founder of the college–Martha Berry. She was an incredible woman. I love that school, the campus is incredibly beautiful, and the people I met there are pretty freaking neat. If you ever have a chance to hike here, do it for me.
Tango and Cash are even getting to enjoy the outdoors. Here they are with Hoss–Jen’s mini Stallion.
Visiting Apple’s breeder and a good friend of mine, I was introduced to Mrs. Speckles. I think she liked me.
I finally held Gavin. My mom is dying for one of these:
(Don’t worry Kim, I held the chicken AFTER Gavin.)
Post-Wedding Season Blues…
Posted on July 15, 2010
Well… I wouldn’t really call them the blues. I did go to the beach last weekend, I’m going back to the beach this weekend, and I’m taking off about a month to break my filly Apple. Life is good no doubt, but I will miss the adventure, romance, and love I see when photographing weddings. Weddings are a very special time in our lives and I love that people actually choose me to document it. My next wedding lined up is on Cumberland Island off the coast of Georgia. Cumberland Island is mainly uninhabited, has wild horses, and you have to got there by the Cumberland Island Ferry. It’s a seriously cool island. Another seriously cool island is Saint Simons, also off the coast of Georgia. My in-laws have a condo there, so we are there a lot. This weekend we had 5 dogs (Cash, Tango, Nala, Strauss, and Gandolff) and 7 people. It was a little tight, but we had a great time. We didn’t do much other than cooking, eating, and laying out. Oh yeah–there was soccer and the news of the German octopus. Basically, we didn’t do anything noteworthy–other than eat. So these pictures aren’t of beautiful models or fancy places, but I kinda like them. ;) As a photographer I see great and interesting light everywhere and want to capture it. Typically I’ve got so much to edit, I either don’t take the pictures or I never process and print them–which I hate because these are MY pictures. These are MY life. Get ready, I’m sure it won’t all be pretty, but I’m already loving these from this past weekend:
Every time I look at a picture of Cash, I want to tell someone how freaking handsome he is. I tell him. I tell John. Seriously, he’s my doggie soul mate.
And he’s not an easy doggie soul mate to have. He bites toes, knocks over children, and can hold a grudge for months. People at the dog park see us coming and walk the other way.
I’m having it printed on a HUGE canvas. Even the grandparents will get a wall portrait.
This one is pretty stinking cool because it has 2 focal points.
This one wasn’t executed as well as I had hoped, but it’s pretty hard to get 5 dogs to do what you want at the same time.
One more of my man. He’s scared of the stairs:
Here’s what we ate. I highly suggest any and all of these recipes.
Lunch:
Sopa de Lima (I have a print out sheet of the recipe, so if you really want it I can scan and send it.)
Dinner:
Mussels in a Tomato Wine Broth (We had to use shrimp bc the mussels have been poisoned.)
German Potato Salad (The Germans told us it was OK.)
Grilled Local Corn

The Garter Girl

I saw these from The Garter Girl and just had to share them with everyone! Aren’t they adorable? There are eco-friendly, custom, modern, traditional, and couture garters. Who knew a girl could have so many options?

Trash the Dress
Posted on April 9, 2010
Tess, Mandi, and I all headed down to St. Augustine yesterday evening for a Trash the Dress session. Tess is our beautiful model and one of my brides from last year. Mandi is a fellow photographer and Berry grad like me. :)
Happy Spring :)
