This is my sweet cousin and her family. We have been best friends all our lives. Shew our teenage years in SC....we will not discuss.....lol.. Although we live over a couple hundred miles apart now our hearts have never been that far apart. Life throws us curve balls and we learn to adapt and that is what we both have done over the last year or so, learn to adapt to life the way we know it now....we keep in touch at least once a week or at least every other week to check in. I was able to be in SC this week and capture her and her family and I am so glad I was able to make this a memory for them! Love you Cathy and Mike, Little Mike and Karson! xoxo

With Fathers day right around the corner this made me cry, what a beautiful daddy daughter song for their dance!

My daddy didn’t live long enough to give me away, but this song would have fit perfectly on my wedding day for us because He gave me my smile, he gave me my eyes, and my silver lining outlook on life! He was a good daddy!
Cherish your fathers!

Photographing these three sisters weddings will always have a special place in my heart! I have been apart of so many of their life events since their weddings and will continue to share their special moments in the future 😘. What a ride this has been! I started weddings with Kristin, then Allie and wrapped up my wedding career with their baby sister Ryan! Its been a wonderful exciting some times crazy journey this wedding photography business but I would not change one second of it.
The people I have met, and the life long friends I have made have been worth every late night editing, long wedding days, and sore backs and feet! I would not trade one minute or one memory! It’s been a fun ride….
Xoxo to all my past brides too! I love you all!
