Blessed and Honored

November 5, 2009

I know I do not say it nearly as much as I should, but wow!  God is good!  I know this may sound very cliche but I thank God everyday for the many blessings He has given me!  Any and ALL success that I have had with my photography and BerryTree Photography I owe to Him!

Just when I was starting to feel down about myself, God goes along and throws this honor my way!  He just knew I needed a little “pick me up”!  Today I was honored to be chosen by a lab I use for printing as their “Pick of the Day”   Head to their blog and check it out!  http://colorinc.typepad.com/color-inc-connect/2009/11/pick-of-the-day-november-5.html

Cool huh?  Told you God was good!

Mikala from Mikala Carver Photography was so kind to invite me along to shoot at this wedding.  The wedding was held at the Emory Hotel and Conference Center.  Matt and Colleen planned on getting married outside in the garden, but due to rain, we were moved inside.  I hope the pictures Mikala and I were able to capture make up for the crappy weather we had!  And just think, if it hadn’t of rained, we might not have gotten these AWESOME shots in the gameroom…what a fabulous location!  Congrats Matt and Colleen!  I’m so happy that I was there to capture part of your day!

Wow!  I’ve missed you guys!  I have been SOOO neglecting my blog lately!  October was just a crazy month!  Two photography workshops, 3 weddings, regular sessions, I got sick, we had my dad’s retirment party…the list could go on and on…

But I’m back!  I have a LOT of client sessions to catch up on in the next few days, but first, I’d like to share with you my brother’s engagement session!  Yes, my little brother is getting married.  Makes me feel old!  We all LOVE his finace Weslyn.  She is a cute, southern, sorority girl, with TONS of spunk!  She is uber competitive and I think she knows more about football than both of my brother’s combined and she is an AVID Auburn fan!  She also loves to fish…which is exactly what they were doing when they got engaged!  The theme of their wedding is “This Kind of Love…”  hence the blog title!

Andrew and Weslyn, congrats!  We are all so happy for both of you!  I was honored to be able to shoot your engagement photos and can’t wait for the wedding in Maine!  Mwah!

“Life is like a rainbow.  You need both the sun and the rain to make its colors appear.”

Well…we’ve had our share of rain lately!  It rained for DAYS  straight!  On Monday it flooded so badly that it took me 4 hours and 39 minutes to get home.  It was a crazy day!  We had a short break from rain for a few days and we were able to squeeze in this family session.  I thought this quote was fitting, because as much as it’s been raining NON STOP, these photos just scream bright, fun, happy, color, LIFE!  Hope you enjoy your sneak peek Carpenter family…you guys are are one beautiful family!

I was so excited that I got to see Mr. Gavin again during a recent visit down to the gulf coast! It was perfect timing as Gavin had just turned one! I just love these images of him…such a “little man” all dressed up in his cute outfits (and yet such a little sweet baby face at the same time!) This was Gavin’s first time to the beach…so fun to be able to capture those memories! Hope you enjoy!

I have been chanting the above quote to myself for a few weeks now!  I swear I have the LEAST amount of patience than anyone I know!  I get an idea or get excited about something and I have to do it NOW!  I’ve always driven my mom crazy with this.  There could be a million and one things I SHOULD be doing, but when I get inpiration…I have to drop all of those other “should” things to do the “want” thing!  So…needless to say…it’s been driving me crazy to not be able to share these beautiful bridal images!  Scarlett and Josh got married on Saturday so I can FINALLY share her Bridal portraits with you!  There are so many I love…but here are just a few of my favorites.  Stay tuned for some wedding sneak peaks in a few days!

Ever heard of this little poem? I of course was born on a wonderful Wednesday…”full of woe”. In fact, both my brothers were born on Wednesdays as well! I guess my mom had her hands full with us! But miss Marissa here was a Friday baby…sounds like she is starting off on a much better foot than I was at birth!

Monday’s Child is fair of face,
Tuesday’s Child is full of grace,
Wednesday’s Child is full of woe,
Thursday’s Child has far to go,
Friday’s Child is loving and giving,
Saturday’s Child works hard for a living,
But the Child that is born on the Sabbath Day,
Is witty and wise and good and gay!

Little Marissa couldn’t have been a better baby. When I arrived she was sleeping sweetly, but by the time I got set up, she was wide awake again. Mom gave her a little more to eat and she was out cold for the next hour and a half! What a perfect little one! We got some great shots including my favorite of her in momma’s hands! So precious! Thanks for having me over to capture your beautiful little one!

As Donny and Marie sang…
I’m a little bit country
And I’m a little bit rock ‘n roll
I’m a little bit of Memphis and Nashville
With a little bit of Motown in my soul
I don’t know if it’s good or bad
But I know I love it so
I’m a little bit country
And I’m a little bit rock ‘n roll

I LOVE the outfits that this family wore! We first started with a little bit of a sweet country look at the Rock Barn in Canton, and then headed to explore downtown Canton for more of an Urban look! Enjoy your sneak peeks guys! You are a way cool family with oodles of style! Hope you love them and I’ll have the rest for you really soon!

Lucas is a momma’s boy and earlier in the day dad made the comment, “see, this is why I have NO pictures of me and my son” Well…I think I got one they will love!

What a sweet sweet age! 1st Birthday sessions are so fun! It is so rewarding to be able capture this age when mom is just beaming with pride at her little one – SO proud that she is growing up into a big girl and at the same time, remembering that she will ALWAYS be her baby! Thank you Molly for such a wonderful session! You, your mama, and grandma were a blast to hang out with and super sweet as well!!

“A baby girl…one of the most beautiful miracles in life, one of the greatest joys we can ever know, and one of the reasons why there is a little extra sunshine, laughter and happiness in the world today.” — Author Unknown
