We are looking forward to a busy and fun 2008... We already have 27 weddings booked, so it looks like there will be lots of blogging ahead of us!
Heave a Happy New Year, and we hope to see you soon!

Much love,
Jonathan and Renee

Welcome Jacquelyn Renee

We were honored to be invited to welcome Jacquelyn Renee into the world at about 5am this morning... The proud parents Lisa and Seth were wedding clients just over 2 years ago, and have become great friends. So good, that we were even more honored that they gave their new daughter Renee's name!
We are so happy for you guys... can't wait to babysit!

Welcome, little "Jax"


The newest family in Greensboro...


A proud dad...


And proud grandmas...



Much love and congratulations... she's beautiful!

Alison and Matt

We had the opportunity to photograph the wedding of Alison and Matt on Saturday... after a week of unseasonably warm temperatures, it turned out to be pretty cold and rainy. Being December, everything was inside at the Regency Room, but we dodged a few raindrops and got some great shots on Elm Street after the ceremony.

the beautiful bride...

the dashing groom...

the dress had great detail...

Matt's grandmother hand made these ornaments... it's a translucent copy of their invitation, inside a glass ball - we were impressed!

and it's a done deal...

the cake from Ganache was as delicious as it was beautiful...

a little experimenting with lighting near the end of the night...


we had a great time - thanks for braving the cold!

Lindsay and Jason

Jonathan walked a bit around downtown Greensboro with Lindsay and Jason, who are getting married this June in Hickory. It was a bit chilly, but the walking kept us warm... plus running from the locomotive really got the heart rate up!

It started out innocently enough...

then on the steps of the old police HQ...

on to the tracks...

and here comes the train!

but we made it out alive...


thanks guys, looking forward to the wedding!
