{ Jamie and Craig - A Wedding to Remember }

I mean, really, could you get any cuter than Jamie and Craig?  They got married on the land of her future house, she wore cowboy boots, they used sparklers....  seriously... so stinkin’ cute! 







Jamie and Craig were referred to me by a previous wedding client, Shannon and Jamie booked the wedding at the January Bridal Show I attended, which guaranteed her a free 10x20 storyboard.  





The only problem is... what picture should they choose?  There wasn’t a bad portrait in the bunch - these wonderful people are beautiful both on the inside and outside.  




With the unique knowledge and assistance of my second shooter, Michelle Williams of mywilliamsphoto.com, we were able to try some fabulous lighting techniques.  






Thank you Jamie and Craig for letting me share in your special day.   www.MaryBethsPhotography.info

Living History Park and the Stalvey Family


I can’t believe how much Living History Park in North Augusta amazes me every time I go there - this picturesque park is home to streams, bridges and an open grass field.


Even though it does require a reservation, it is worth it, because it is a photographer’s dream outdoor shooting location.  


I was so excited to meet Layne, Chad and their daughter, Noah at Living History Park one beautiful evening!  And what a delightful family.  

Noah is such a sweet little girl who was just all smiles!  Look at all the ways we used the park to capture this beautiful family.   www.MaryBethsPhotography.info

Seniors 2012 - Alyssa and Mekayla


Ya’ll know how I feel about people’s eyes - they always tell me a story, especially from behind my camera.  When I am hired to do Senior Portraits, I find myself transported back to that time in my life - a time of uncertainty, excitement and adventure!  I was so excited to spend such a fabulous time with two beautiful young women who graduated in May, Mekayla and Alyssa, taking their Senior Portraits.



Mekayla’s Mom is a hair designer where I get my hair done and my stylist/friend Keely referred her.  We did two sessions for Mekayla, a recent Fox Creek High School graduate, an outdoor one at The Stewart House and a cap and gown at Hammond’s Ferry.  Mekayla is just gorgeous. 




Alyssa, a recent North Augusta High School graduate and a future USC-Aiken attendee, also had two super fun sessions that spanned two seasons.  Alyssa had an outdoor Fall session and an indoor Spring session.  Isn’t she just so beautiful?!?



Mekayla and Alyssa each received 25 custom-designed announcements that really stood out from the crowd.  And now you can too!  Book your senior portrait session with me and receive 25 unique, custom-designed senior announcement cards and a 5x7!   www.MaryBethsPhotography.info
