CRYSTAL BRIDAL SHOOT

Crystal was absolutely gorgeous for her bridal shoot, which made my job easy! We hit several spots around Lake Junaluska and got some pretty dramatic images. Thanks Crystal! See you in November.

A ROARIN' MYSTERY

I had a blast photographing the "A Roarin' Mystery" fundraiser for The Health Adventure. The mystery dinner theater was set in the 1920's and most of the attendees dressed for the occasion.

The Health Adventure was founded in 1968 and is a family health and science attraction. Located in downtown Asheville in Pack Place, The Health Adventure features two levels of hands-on exhibits, a changing exhibits gallery with top-notch and blockbuster traveling exhibits, and enriching programs that seek to improve health awareness, promote wellness lifestyles, and increase science literacy.

If you've never checked it out I highly recommend it!

Yours truly.

ALLISON & TONY

I have been friends with Allison and Tony for almost fourteen years so it was a total honor and joy to photograph their wedding. It was only the second wedding held at the Asheville Arboretum. Needless to say it is a beautiful place to get hitched!

HAYWOOD COUNTY FAIR

There is nothing quite like a good county fair.

These images are from the Haywood County, North Carolina Fair.

PRAYING MANTIS

I found this guy on my front porch a couple of weeks ago.

BALD RIVER FALLS, TENNESSEE

Jamie and her niece Allison wanted to go on a bike ride so we loaded up and drove over to Tennessee on the Cherohala Skyway. About ten miles over the Tennessee line we made a left at Bald River and parked. From there it is a pretty easy bike ride up to the falls and back. The weather was beautiful and the whole day was spectacular.

Jamie, Allison and Yours Truly.

JOYCE KILMER MEMORIAL FOREST

Jamie and I took a trip to Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest with my brother David and his family. It is on the edge of Lake Santeetlah near Robbinsville, North Carolina. If you've never been there it is a great day trip from anywhere in western North Carolina. You will find some of the largest Poplar and Hemlock trees in the eastern United States.

Except for this first shot taken by my brother David all photos were shot by Jamie.

Love this shot.

Jeremiah and Nathaniel.

Robin, David and the boys.
