Wedding Day Preview | Glenn + Jacqueline
Jacqueline has got to be one of the sweetest brides I’ve worked with. Her wedding was such a wonderful day. Do I have the most amazing job in the world or what? And what a fun photo shoot, especially with the impromptu carriage ride downtown. Oh, and I can’t forget how amazing Courtney’s little rap routine was

Wedding Day Preview | Ted + Amy
Amy came to me as a referral from a family I’ve worked with previously. What an honor when a family comes back and chooses you again for another loved one. What a fantastic couple Amy and Ted are. Amy was all smiles all day long. And for good reason. Ted is a fantastic guy. I hope you two have an incredible life together!

Wedding Day Preview | Jeffrey + Danneen
Every wedding has little glitches. For Danneen, it was the lack of a/c in the limo, on a HOT HOT HOT day. But, if that’s all that went wrong, then it was a fantastic wedding day! You can just tell that Jeffrey and Danneen are so perfect for each other. And working with Cindy Wagner was awesome as usual. I truly wish we had more opportunities to work together.

A proud Style Me Pretty Little Black Book member

I am so proud and honored to announce that I have been accepted and invited into the Style Me Pretty Little Black Book for The Best Wedding Vendors.
What makes me so proud is that they don’t just accept anyone that applies. They have an extensive process they use to determine credibility, reputation and passion. That process includes references from fellow wedding vendors, a detailed phone interview and a thorough review of my work and brand.
And what a resource to be a part of! For me, Style Me Pretty has been an endless source of ideas and inspiration. So for brides, it would be nearly priceless. They take pride in sharing the best work and ideas from the nations most talented wedding vendors, and it shows in the amazing quality of the website and articles.
So, if you have been there before, check them out here at www.stylemepretty.com. And make sure you check out my Little Black Book Portfolio when you get a chance.

fotoFUSION | wedding visual arts “mingling” together
Jacalyn called me one day, and we talked for over an hour about this cool idea to combine both of our visual arts into a fotoFUSION. What a cool concept… two artists working together and combining their crafts! This is our debut… Ryan + Robin, or “R&R” as they come to be known.
Ryan and Robin, you were both so fantastic to work with on your wedding day. Robin, you were so calm and collected, and looked stunning in your dress! Ryan, you were as goofy and fun as ever. You two have an amazing relationship, and I wish you all the best.
Working with the 3bc team (Jacalyn, Marti and Tiesha) was an amazing experience! I hope to work with you all again very soon.
