North Carolina to California!

I recently met with my new wedding clients. Their wedding is scheduled for later this year. I have been corresponding with the bride for some weeks now, but this was our initial meeting. It was great matching a face with the voice I've been speaking to for so long! She lives in NC and will be relocating to Cali after her wedding.

She is going to be such a beautiful bride and her fiance is so hilarious! I can not wait to photograph them again. They appear to be such a fun loving couple. The bride and I seem to admire a lot of the same things. She loves the Nature's Studio and actually decided to contact me after she viewed the PhotoBOOK of Navy Blu; both galleries on www.eventcatchers.com. And when we pulled out our appointment books to schedule our next meeting- they were the SAME designed day planners from the local superstore in town! We laughed at our similar style in taste.

It was so refreshing to see such love again - that uncompromised commitment to one another that grows into "unconditional love". We do not see this much anymore. Our couple are actually college sweethearts and when you look at them, you are looking at "it". They have "it". You can just look at them and see "it".

The friendship between them was one of the first things I noticed. It was that "best friend" companionship we all strive for in our relationships. They were just gitty with one another and it was great to see! When she looked at him, he would smile and when he looked at her, she would blush....now how many of us remember that feeling!

Stay tuned for more pics; her bridal session is next month!
Enjoy Life &:)!

SEASONED


An interesting conversation and excitement to match.

To start, We have found the location. What makes this one so exciting is the Nature Studio that come with it!! I hate to sound corny, but "Picture Perfect" it is. This wooded site has it all- seasoned trees for shooting plus the privacy some clients want but often can not receive on location! It has great scenery now and just waiting for a burst of color. Currently everything is green but bright flowers have been added- Stay tuned for updated landscaping pics! There is even a richly colored red and brown brick wall available for textured shots!

The moment I saw it I said, "This is Nature's Studio". Those of you who are familiar with our Event Catcher site know there is a gallery titled Nature's Studio. These photos are especially dear to me because they received the attention that lit the flame for Event Catchers Photography. Now, with this "park" of a location, I am sure Nature's Studio is about to expand :)

Speaking of expanding, Saturday, while driving to meet a client, I received a call. The voice on the other end was a woman who stated she had just passed me. She saw "Seasoned" and wanted to know if it was spiritual? That question caught me off guard because I had never thought of it in that aspect. I mean, when I think of seasoned, I think spicy, experienced and even my sorority tenure is "Seasoned" (a nicer way of saying "old school"). But "spiritual" took me to an entire different level- no pun intended.

We talked briefly. She explained her organization hosts many events and is always looking for a photographer! We decided to exchange numbers, realizing our paths would cross again...Seasoned

Enjoy Life & :) !
