Our Engagement Photos

Here they are. Our engagement photos. We really enjoyed the afternoon we spent with our wedding photographer Stephen Torrence and his wife CJ. Stephen and CJ live in Kings Mountain which is where I proposed to Cari. We started out at an awesome coffee shop, then walked around downtown, jumped on the railroad tracks, (which we caught the attention of a Kings Mountain police officer), and then hit some awesome locations that had awesome views of Kings Mountain in the background, and other awesome locations. We ae so excited to work with these two in the future. Enjoy the photos by Torrence Photography.

To Stephen and CJ,
Thanks for a great afternoon!

Down town photo walk

The other evening, I decided to bring my camera with me on an evening walk around Cannon Village in down town Kannapolis. The sun was creating some awesome light so I had to walk around and see what I could find. I've posted a few of my favorites below. Enjoy the photos.

BUSY EDITING

Hi everyone. I haven't blogged in a few days because I have been very busy editing a recent wedding. I've posted a little teaser of what's to come. Check back in a few days for my favorites of the wedding.

Do We Look Excited Or What?

Cari and I had an awesome time with Steve and CJ Torrence with Torrence Photography. Steve and CJ are our photographers for our wedding next April. We headed up to Kings Mountain for our engagement session last Saturday. We have enjoyed getting to know this fun duo in the last few weeks and are really looking forward to them capturing our special day. Steve posted a few of the pictures to his blog with lots more to come. The photo to the left was taken by Steve. (I practiced my Karate skills the night before the shoot............ok, not really but I think I had really good form). Oh, and Steve, if your reading this blog, I ended up getting poison ivy on my chin area. That's the price I pay to get the good shots. No worries though, I'm keeping the ivy dry on it! LOL. I look forward to sharing more of our engagement photos in a few weeks. Thanks again to Steve and CJ Torrence Photography for a wonderful day!

Amy's Bridal Shoot

I had a great time shooting Amy's bridal portraits recently. Her Mom, Dad, and Sister were there to set up a few plants and to help with her dress, which was a big help to me. I'll be shooting her wedding in a few weeks and can't wait. Amy decided to do the shots at her Grandfather's house, which was an awesome choice. So many good places to shoot. I've posted some of my favorites below. Enjoy.

Take a Hike!

Cari and I went hiking with our friends this past Sunday. We headed up to Kings Mountain right off of Interstate 85. We decided to hike the Kings Pinnacle trail (that's where Cari and I got engaged. There's a photo of us in the exact spot below). It's a pretty tough trail because the second half of it seems almost straight up until you reach the top. But getting to the top is really worth it. You can see some photos on the trail and on top of the mountain in the pictures below. We had such a great time. Enjoy the pictures!

OH NO! THE BIG 4-0

This past Saturday my sister threw my brother in-law a surprise 40th birthday party. He had no idea. It was such a fun party with plenty of food and dancing....we'll a good attempt at it anyway! I've posted some of my favorites from the party below. Enjoy the photos.

Vacation Photos

I've been on vacation this past week at Myrtle Beach. I haven't had much time to go through a lot of photos but I'd selected a few of my favorites to share below. It's been a great vacation, but it'll be back to the real world on Monday. Enjoy the photos.
