Colby Reese

My husband and I were in Charleston over the weekend and got to spend some time with our friends the Evans' and their little guy. His name may be Colby but he answers to many including- Poos Cakes, Captain Kanuckles, or simply "the Captain"....that's my personal favorite at least. He is perhaps the happiest child I have ever met. His vocabulary is just exploding- you really never know what will come out of his little mouth next. The whole family is so photogenic that it's hard not to snap a few shots! Ok- well I couldn't help myself- I snapped more than a few! Some of my favorite are in front of the Citadel where Lance and my husband went to school.... if tradition continues Colby may find himself in uniform there one day (in which case these pics would be priceless!). Enjoy!    

Let the blogging begin!

Considering my love for writing, I am not sure why I have put off launching my blog before today. I spent most of my afternoon searching the web for inspiration, photographs I love, and photographers I admire. I came across Punam Bean's site. Not only are her photos absolutely amazing and she is self-taught, but she is a fascinating writer! I found myself wanting to read her blog all day! So with a little inspiration- here I am.
What an amazing journey to bring me here to this place. I didn't envision that I would one day become a professional photographer launching my own site, shooting weddings, and capturing moments that can never again be recreated- what a privilege and honor! It honestly overwhelms me sometimes that someone would see talent in me and entrust me with their moments. As this weekend approaches and I am gathering my gear together for a wedding in Charleston I just had to take a moment to pray- Lord let me see every moment, that You would open my eyes to see the beauty and the love You have created. What an amazing job and journey this is.
