Last week I had the pleasure to hang out with two young "Divas in Training!" One was celebrating her third birthday at Sweet & Sassy, a salon spa for kids near Charlotte. Thanks for letting me tag along ladies:) Here are a few of my favorites!

Sweet Deal for Valentine's Day- "OOH BABY!"
Session Fees for INFANTS (0-12mo) & COUPLES are Half Off!
~Happy Valentine's Day!~ Contact us to schedule your appointment!
I have made some (more) changes to my site. I have basically gotten rid of the majority of my galleries and use a slideshow feature as my showcase now. I wanted to make your viewing experience better. I always visit other sites and hate it when I have to physically thumb thru the images to get a good look. When I hit a site and the images start coming at me right away, I am more inclined to sit back and review.
Funny thing is, eventcatcaters.com was set up like the sites I hated to visit-- go figure!! So I privatized a few galleries and added some of my best images to the public MENU pages- the images change right there by themselves. No more clicking this and that to get to public galleries- double clicking an image to make it bigger- Finding Play- Setting speed and on and on... (Getting tired just writing about the process!)
Take a look! Just work with the Menu options like Services, Contact, Event Pricing etc. Or you can just stay on the Home Page; I've added a variety of images to view right there- from Weddings to Maternity! Each image is viewable for a few seconds before it changes. You have a chance to review the information on each page as the images are shown to you.
I still have some of the galleries, like the B2B and CAUGHT --but I've trimmed the extras. I think it's a win / win for me and you: I have displayed the specific images from the particular galleries I want everyone to see in the slideshow-- And they come right to you-- without MY direction or YOUR search work! It's just an easier viewing experience all around. Check it out!

Reflections of 2008
As 2008 came to an end, I wanted to reflect on some of my most memorable experiences of the year. I have been blessed to have come in contact with some of the most positive, knowledgeable and giving individuals one could hope for.
I have learned a lot in 2008 and I plan to move into 2009 full speed ahead! I'm thankful to my clients for allowing me to capture some of their most precious life moments. Thanks to my "teachers" who shared their experiences along the way and my "2nd Shooters" who, when called, were there late nights and early days!
For 2008, images were captured from Baltimore to Atlanta with Charlotte in between. There were brave US Service men to curious two year olds peeking at water streams. We captured business owners creating beats for the streets and designs for your homes interior; Others were captured creating styles for your crown exteriors! There were milestone moments, from graduations and wedding unions, to the final days of engagements and babies in wombs blooming. Mothers with daughters and sons; Soon to be fathers caressing bellies and having fun. If you called Event Catchers, we were there. Capturing your moments for a lifetime to share... Aleshia Lamelle
Share with me, Reflections of 2008... Moments captured in time, that were simply great! Enjoy Life & :)!

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 & :) !
