Mia & Nathan. [Love is in the air.]

Last week I photographed Mia & Nathan's engagement photos, and I don't think that I could have asked for a cuter couple, a more beautiful location, or better weather & lighting!!  This photo session was such a great experience for me as a photographer, and I hope it was an even better one for the couple! This lovely couple will soon wed on August 4, 2012.  I can honestly say that I captured some of my favorite images I have ever taken during this e-session! Here are a few of my favorites that I've edited so far (: Enjoy!

Maternity session with mommy-to-be, Holly.

Well, I survived my second maternity session yesterday evening! It went great! I couldn't have asked for a better model, the lighting and sunset were amazing, and it all took place at two beautiful locations. A special shout-out and thanks goes to Jennifer (a talented, fellow photographer) for supplying the beautiful locations. This maternity session was to honor this wonderful mommy-to-be and Nolan, her little bun in the oven (:  Here are a few of my favorites from the shoot! Enjoy!

Just a little personal project I'm working on..

Hey there,  hope everyone has had a great week! I know I have (:

I was going to stop by share the latest project I'm working on. It's more of a personal project, I'm about two weeks into it so far. The project is one self-portrait a day, for 356 days.

Like I said, it started out as a personal project that I was going to keep to myself, on the very first day I felt so completely inspired...I posted day numero uno's photo to my Facebook wall and shared a brief note about what I was going to be doing over the course of the next year, and there were a lot of people interested to see what was coming next......so...day two.....posted.......day three......posted and so on. I can't stop now, when people are tuning in to see what each day brings (:
I took on this project because I knew that it would push me to grow as a photographer, and as an individual also. I'm already learning and taking away so much from this project, and I know that it's just going to keep going from here.
I'm only fourteen days in, but here are a couple of my favorites thus far. Enjoy!

This was actually my first maternity session..ever.... and I have to say, I think it went great!!!  Here are just a few of my favorite images from the shoot...enjoy!

Staring into the future

Two years of hard work, thousands of photographs, several long hours in the computer lab, and countless memories later, my college career is coming to an end.  Portfolio show was held last night at the Hickory Museum of Art. I can't believe how fast the last two years have went by. I've learned many things during my time in school, but my education doesn't end here, I hope to always feel driven to further my knowledge of photography with nothing but wonder & excitement. So even though I'll be walking across that stage next week, that isn't where it all ends, it's where it all starts.  I'm given a blank canvas, and what I choose to paint, whatever it may be, will be beautiful.

recent work

Most of my time here lately has been working on finishing my portfolio stuff, for the upcoming portfolio show.  I've also been working on my website http://www.freebirdphotographync.com/  and I've also been working on images from a few recent photo sessions.  I'm going to post some of my latest images from my most recent photo session with the lovely, Patree'. Enjoy!

Just a little video...
