Josh & Christina Engagement Portraits

So, My Big Brother is getting married! How awesome is that?! Pretty awesome :) And to quite an amazing and beautiful girl. Josh and Christina got engaged in February and the wedding date is August 14th. I am so excited to welcome a sister into the family :)
Well, lets get to some pictures of the lovely couple! I had great time on this photo shoot for many reasons. One, it was my FIRST engagement Photo shoot. Two, it was my big Brother and his Fiancee. Three, I discovered MANY new locations to take future photo shoots at! Can it get any better than that?! I was a happy photographer. Anyways, here is just a tiny sample of them. We took tons! With a couple this good looking I just couldn't stop clicking.

All in a Day's Work

I love my job! I work at a coffee shop in downtown Farmville. It has been the best job I have ever had. I get to meet new people on a daily basis from all around the world, see friends all the time, work with amazing fellow Baristas, and smell coffee ALL DAY! Who wouldn't love this job?! I was truly blessed when God opened up the opportunity in September of 2009 to work there. I am truly grateful. Well, today I was getting ready to head to work when the idea crossed my mind that I should bring my camera and maybe capture some of the coffee shop environment. It was a rainy and gloomy day outside so I figured it may be kind of slow so "why not?!". So here you go, life behind the counter of a coffee shop with all the classy coffee gadgets and mouth watering baked goods. Enjoy!

All in a Day's Work






Spring is one of my favorite seasons. I love to wake up in the mornings to the sun coming through my window and the birds chirping their little hearts out(I wish that was all they did though, I am having a great problem with them leaving surprises all over my car but, that is a totally different story for another time and on another blog) Anyways, I decided to grab my Canon and capture God's creation! Along the way I picked up another Photographer, my youngest brother Gabe. I have four brothers so I cherish the moments that I get to spend with them individually. For some of the shoot, I handed my camera over to my fellow Photographer and let him snap a couple of pictures. I will admit my heart did make its way to my throat when I looked over while driving and my brother has my camera fully outside of my car that is traveling at 50 MPH! Took a lot of trust and prayer on my end. We had a blast though. It was neat to see through the eyes of a (soon to be) 12yr old young man. So, I hope you enjoy a little taste of our fun spring shoot.
