We took Leah and Brad's pictures at the rose gardens at Raleigh Little Theatre. What a beautiful location. It looks just magical when all the roses are in bloom. The couple has two pugs that we are secretly hoping make an appearance on the wedding day.... well I guess it's not such a secret. They would look so cute with some little flower garlands around their necks. We'll keep our fingers crossed.

Look at that face... Baby Eli is just 2 months old and cute as can be. It was fun taking his picture.

Here are the bridal portraits of Susan, our bride from last weekend's wedding. Now that she's married we can share them with you. She is so much fun and a bit of an actress so she was a natural in front of the camera.

Engagement ~ Melissa and Chuck

posted by Lisa | filed under: Engagement, weddings

Here are the engagement photos of Melissa and Chuck. What a great couple. Melissa has always dreamed of getting married on Bald Head Island. Her family vacations there every year. They plan to marry in May. We took the opportunity to shoot their engagement photos while they were in town on their family vacation this year since they live out of state. They both work for PPD so they are in Wilmington frequently as well. I love her style. She wore this cool printed dress that really shows her personality. She also skipped the traditional engagement ring for a set of Tiffany bands that are to die for. There will be pictures taken of those at the wedding.

We had the pleasure of shooting Megan and Walter's engagement photos this July. They are getting married this October at the Temple Garden in Landfall. If you are thinking that she looks familiar, you're right. She's a model for Reedee, a designer clothing store on Military Cutoff Rd. Their ad is featured in each months magazine of Focus On The Coast.

Portrait ~ Baby Pug

Okay, if there was a contest for the cutest puppy in the world...I think this little guy would win! Only 6 weeks old and as adorable as can be!!! He doesn't even have a name yet- but he has a Hawaiian shirt. Our friends got this new baby over the weekend- and, of course, I couldn't resist bringing my camera over for a photo session!

Already a fan!

Portrait ~ Jenny

posted by Lisa | filed under: portraits

My cousin Jenny came to visit from California this summer. This was her first visit to North Carolina and we had to take photos on the beach! She loved the warm ocean water- where we come from, you have to wear a wet suit in the ocean. It is so cold, your feet are numb after only a few minutes! She is starting her sophomore year of high school. Her visit was a lot of fun!

Portrait ~ The Cummings Family

The Cumming's family vacationed on Oak Island this summer and decided to take a beach portrait. They are a really fun family and kept me laughing the whole time. Little Luke, the 2 year old, had so much fun exploring shells on the beach. What a cutie!
