This has NOTHING to do with photography

I have a blog post I’m working on right now about stuff I do besides photography (pics too!), but due to, er, um, a little gear accident while trying to take photos, that post will have to wait a little bit longer. :-}

This blog belongs to both me (Faith) and my fiance, Damon. We’ve been dating since February 2004 and almost exactly one year ago he finally proposed! In 95 days, after 16 months of being engaged, we are FINALLY tying the knot and I am so very excited!!! I think it’s finally hitting me after my friend Sarah got married a week ago and I always had in the back of my mind that I was finally next in line. I’ll be 30 years old this November (turn 30 during our honeymoon which we’re postponing til after hurricane season) and I always thought that was my perfect age to start my married life.

Yay!!!

A Reunion with the Patterson Fam!

I met the Pattersons a very long time ago – I was probably 17 years old – through our church and were involved in the same groups as I was an exiting home schooler and they were just getting started in it. After reconnecting via facebook (what else?) Mrs. Patterson booked a family portrait session and we had a mini reunion. The last time I saw the kids I could still see over their heads and now…yeah, not so much. The kids have grown up TONS and it was really good to catch up again!!

Here are some of my favorites of the evening:

I Heart Faces Photography

I love how this week’s I Heart Faces Photography is about teenagers! I adore doing senior sessions and it was so hard for me to choose my favorite photo for the contest, but I think this one of Dallas is one of the faves I have ever done. Her exuberance and bubbly personality made this shoot so easy and every time I go through her session I have to smile because of the great energy she gave!!

Megan and Jeremy are getttin’ hitched!

Next January up in Forth Worth, TX, Megan and Jeremy will become husband and wife!! Damon and I will be there to document their wonderful day as well as capturing Megan’s bridals in an undisclosed but AWESOME location (I’ll let her tell you!!). A few months ago I traveled north as they traveled south and we met up in Austin for their engagement session on the campus of Megan’s alma mater. It was a beautiful day to shoot a beautiful couple that is so in love:)Engagement sessions are probably one of my favorite sessions because you can just feel the love between two people and it’s so simple to capture sheer joy and happiness as you spend a day with them.

Yes, slacker

I haven’t forgotten about this blog!! On the contrary I think about it quite a lot and how I need to update it. I’ve been busy planning our wedding in October, just completed my second triathlon in Austin, probably fractured my wrist (but I won’t know because MRIs are so expensive!), recently aquired plantar fasciitis (very painful in the heel), and on top of everything I’ve done a LOT of shooting.

I have two blog entries slated for next week so there will be some photo eye candy soon!!

Also on Sunday I will be photographing seven beautiful ladies at a local hotel suite for my first boudoir session!! If you are getting married, have a special anniversary coming up, or think it’d be fun to gather with friends and have a fun photo session, let me know so we can book a session!!
