Ann Blair’s Bridal

December 28th, 2009

Now that Ann Blair is a married woman I think it’s safe to share some of my favorites from her bridal session.  Ann Blair actually requested a studio bridal session.  Since I don’t own a studio, I usually borrow one from another photographer in the area who is gracious enough to share.  I will say that is a major perk to the photography community here in Greenville.  Everyone is totally cool and willing to help each other out.  However, we ended up at Duncan Estates in Spartanburg.  It’s a lovely white column home.  I actually had a wedding there this past spring.  Ann Blair knew of the home and thought it would be perfect and it was.   

Thank you everyone for being so fabulous to work with.  I hope it’s not too long until we have another occasion together.  Cheers!

A Griffin kind of Christmas

December 26th, 2009

Let me start by saying that what I really wanted for Christmas was a nice picture of Matt, me, and Amelia together in front of the Christmas tree.  Well, I never got it.  This shot below was all I got.  Miss Amelia was not having it.  Poor thang.

This year we went a few minutes down the road to Matt’s parent’s house.  My mom also joined in the fun.  My dad had to work in columbia. Boooo! And my brother, who lives in New Orleans, spent Christmas with his wife’s family.
