Julie & Tom: July 3, 2010
On Saturday, July 3 while we were settling into life as a family of 4, two of my dear photographer friends were photographing a wedding for me. You see, when Julie booked me to photograph her July 3 wedding, I was not pregnant and was so excited to work with them! In October when we found out the big news, I immediately knew that I would be unable to photograph the wedding, considering we were expecting twins, and my due date was July 26. Thankfully, I have a strong network of excellent photographers and called Brantley Freeman of All Dressed Up Photography and Kathy Powell of Moore Photographing and (after Julie agreed), they agreed to take over the wedding photography for me. What could have been a scary situation for any bride I believe turned out beautifully - not only did she have ONE professional photographer to document her big day, but instead had TWO! Kathy & Brantley did SUCH a great job!
Be sure to go check out Brantley’s blog to see some of the images!

Things are going well with our new family of four! Thanks for all of the cards, emails and phone calls to check on us. It’s been quite an adjustment but worth every minute. We are so in love!

Baby Shower!
I had four FABULOUS baby showers hosted by some dear family and friends! I feel so incredibly blessed to have such a supportive circle around me to celebrate with us! These are all pictures from the first baby shower hosted by my best friends (including my sister, who I’m proud to call a best friend also!)
Diaper cake my sister made, and a candy bar favor table
Samuel & Selah’s verses that I’ve been praying over them. My friends went to so much effort to make everything so personal to us!
Some of the delicious food!
Adorable chalk boards my sister made for the babies
Photo album they put together for me with pictures from the shower, and “words of wisdom” or prayers from guests. Also check out the ADORABLE invitation!
Drink station - SO cute!
Opening presents! Everyone was so generous! I love these personalized burp cloths

Baby Reagan getting to know her cousins. They will be less than 5 months apart and in the same grade in school..how neat!
Me with my sis (she looks incredible 3 months postpartum!)
We are counting down the days till the little ones arrive!
my growing belly
Long time no blog!!
As I’m sure you can expect, the past few weeks have been filled with much anticipation, excitement and pure JOY as we prepare for the birth of our twins! Today I am 34 weeks pregnant which is a big milestone for a twin pregnancy! I’ve been trying to document my growing belly and it was easiest for me just to take a quick picture with my iphone. .
As far as my business is concerned, I’m officially out of maternity leave (from shooting) and will work on computer work till I deliver. I will be back to work mid-September.
My delivery date is currently set for July 1! Less than 3 weeks before we meet our sweet Samuel and Selah! Of course anything can happen so I’m trying not to get too set on the date July 1 
I have had four WONDERFUL showers thrown by some very dear friends and family. We are ALL set, I do believe! Over the next couple of weeks I’m planning to post some pictures of my nursery, shower pictures, and finally baby pictures when the babies finally get here!
For now, here are a sampling of those iphone belly shots
Lindsay & Ryan: May 15, 2010
Saturday was my LAST wedding to photograph pre-babies! I took a whole TEAM up to Laurens to photograph Lindsay and Ryan’s wedding because I knew I’d need the extra help! Paula did an excellent job second shooting (as always!), Amanda was a superb third shooter/water-fetcher/bag carrier, and my sweet husband Justin drove me from point A to point B (so I wouldn’t have to walk too far!). I am so thankful!! Everything went SO smoothly on Saturday! I photographed Lindsay’s sister, Ashley’s wedding in Laurens about 14 months ago, and it was so great to reconnect with this fun family!! Lindsay and Ryan are on a cruise right now, doesn’t that sound glorious!!
Here are some of my favorites, and CLICK HERE to view the slideshow!
Sneak Peek!
Two recent portrait sessions:

And for a quick update!
This week (week of May 17) is my last week shooting, as it is getting harder and harder for me to get around! Carrying all that gear at 30 weeks pregnant with twins is not easy, and the health of my babies is priority #1 right now; trying to keep them in as long as possible! I will still be working in the office on album design and wrapping up some loose ends until Samuel and Selah make their arrival. Recently I have had an influx of wedding album orders so I’m trying to get as many done before they arrive (only 6 more weeks!). I will resume scheduling portrait sessions in September. If you are interested in booking a fall portrait session, go ahead and email me. My September calendar is already filling up since I’m taking 12 weeks off for maternity leave. Also, my openings will be more limited as I will have two sweet babies to be a mother to
Heather & Alan: May 2, 2010
