Just That Easy (Heather & Steven)

    I remember when I married my wife and we would attend functions at church.  At one of these functions one of the Mothers of the church was teaching a class.  It was quite a few young married couples in this class and I recall her saying she loves to see young married couples.  I got what she meant once I met Heather and Steven.  It's just a fit that looks so right.  It's a good look when you can feel and see the love that a couple has for one another.  We had tried to schedule this shoot the week before, but due to the cold weather we decided to postpone for the opportunity to shoot in warmer conditions lol.  If anyone remembers the last two weeks you know it was still cold the following week.  Although a little better it was still nippy.  They didn't allow this to stop us this time and showed up ready and willing.  No jackets, just ready to take on any direction I gave them.  I thought we had a pretty good session to just shoot for 1 hour.  Normally I block off at least 2 hours for engagements, but working with these two was just that easy.   Heather and Steven once again I thank you for the opportunity.  Here are some shots of this lovely couple hope you enjoy.  God Bless, Peace.......

Second Time Around (The Baileys)

The joy that a child brings can't always be put into words.  My daughter brings me endless smiles and laughter, so I can just imagine what Carleen and Delano are in store for.  These two have already produce one bundle of joy, Mr. D. J. and with a baby sister on the way, fun fun fun fun... Carleen contacted me about what she wanted and was looking to maybe get together in a week or two.  What I didn't know was that I had been knowing her husband for a long time.  Me and Delano had been apart of the Magic dynasty for years. In case your wondering a basketball team that ran the NASA league for years lol.  What a small world and to make it even more interesting as I was speaking to Carleen about the details of her shoot.  My mom happen to be in the car and once realizing who she was told me we were kin.  Hey cuz, where's that discount? Naw, she didn't say that, but that is the usual response lol. I already know Delano, but this was my first time meeting Carleen and DJ.  What a beautiful family.  I now see why Delano always smiles when you mention his family.  Although our time was short I thought we were able to get some pretty good stuff.  As I share these images I would like to say congratulations to Carleen and Delano.  I pray that this child is as healthy and brings as much joy as any two people can stand.  God Bless, Peace........

Something A Little Different (Evangeline & Corey)


      To be apart of this union was a joy.  Upon arrival I made my way into the lodge and there I saw the cakes being given there final touches.  I was amazed at the creation of these cakes, so on to find Neville (N'Sight).  He had already started the details of Evangeline getting ready and I knew then this was going to be a day to remember.  Looking at some of the things she had out for her wardrobe made me that more anxious to see the groom.  Off I go to see whats going on with the guys and as I enter I see swords, daggers, and the attire that will bring all of this together.  After getting some preliminary shots of the guys we headed up for Corey and Evangeline's first meet. Once seeing each other you could see the love and happiness that came across their faces.  They really loved this special day that was just for them.  With friends and family arriving in the same attire made this even that more special.  Shout out to Veronica Dennis who also came through to help capture this beautiful ceremony. Check out a few of the images I captured on this beautiful day on Monte Sano Mountain.  God Bless, Peace........

Second Chance (Lyncohea's Bridal)

      There's nothing like second chances especially when its such an important time in your life.  Well that's exactly what my sister n law Lynn had.  Lynn had mention to me that she didn't get to do a bridal prior to marrying my younger brother.  When she mention this to me light bulbs went off everywhere.  I thought if she has the dress all she would need is a photographer and she could make that happen, so no sooner than that thought got out she said that she was getting her dress cleaned.  Stop..... Hold up... I have an idea, when you get your dress out lets schedule a shoot so that you will have those pictures lol, and that's what we did. We were planning on doing both outside and inside shots, but it didn't necessarily go down that way.  Lynn did a wonderful job and plan on getting her back in front of the camera to get those sexy inside shots that she wants.  We had a ball during this shoot.  Lynn and my brother Bush are two of a kind (Comedians), so we laughed and shot a while and then we laughed and shot a while and that's one reason we didn't get the inside stuff.  Thanks to Chris Dowdell for coming through and helping a brother out.  Thanks sis for allowing me to go back in time and get these shots in that now should make your photo album complete.  God Bless, Peace.......
