Jonathan and Jamye

Sunday was such an incredible treat for me.

I had the pleasure of following around a beautiful bride for the better part of the day.

Jamye was such a sweet lady to be around. Her disposition was always filled with a beautiful smile and she has such a gentle, easy-going turn with everyone she comes in contact with. Must be why Jonathan surprised her with a little wedding gift early in the day.

Nicely done, Jonathan.

It is so refreshing to see a couple so undeniably taken with each other.

Who knew Cape Fear Botanical Gardens were even around, let alone so pristine and beautiful?

The infamous "dip kiss".....

I don't recall ever having the guys to pack such a photo session punch.

What a hoot to work with.

I mean, really..... who would think up a pyramid and have such fun posing?

And, what about a football team of groomsmen?

Jayme - a country gal at heart, looked at home on a Massey Ferguson parked right smack in front of a tobacco barn.

Thanks, Jayme and Jonathan.

You filled my day with many smiles and warm fuzzies.

May the rest of you days be filled with giving each other more of the same.

LITTLE MUMMY

Yep, this is what happens when you study Ancient Egypt with your children.....

and then go to Walmart at the end of summer when they are already getting Halloween costumes lined up in the lawn and garden center.

This little stinker got the biggest kick out of scaring the daylights out of his mother. Not only did he come into the schoolroom while I was vacuuming, but then commenced to chase me outside - all the while holding those little brown arms out towards me, never breaking the hint of a smile, and never taking his chinquipin eyes off of me.

Ah, but then he turned around, and after taking in a good view of his rear, I realized that I was dealing only with a "mummy-wanna-be", dressed in Scooby-Doo underwear.

Whew!! That was a relief.

Haley

Haley- a senior at Harrell's Christian Academy.

We met for the first time the day of her senior shoot.

Immediately I discovered that Haley is a very special lady with lots of talent,

especially in modeling.

I hardly had to do a thing except press the shutter.

She wants to be a lawyer, but I think she's model quality.

Pretty inside and pretty outside.

Great qualities for both a lawyer AND a model.

Congratulations, Haley.

May God bless you each step of the way.
