This past summer, I was lucky enough to be the official photographer of the AVP Charleston Open professional beach volleyball tournament. Several of my images were picked up by Sports Illustrated for an article they wrote about Chrissie Zartman. Well, the AVP has also written a story about her, using our photos. Click here to check it out. This rising star is REALLY starting to turn heads!

Kate & Ryan’s wedding day started out with her getting ready at historic Charleston Place. Once she was ready to go, she and Ryan shared their “First Glance” together in a private suite. They embraced, she told him how excited she was that their big day had arrived, and he let her know how absolutely beautiful she was. It was a wonderful moment as they enjoyed the calm before the storm! We then met the rest of the family at Waterfront Park to photograph all the portraits before the ceremony. They were married at the Circular Congregational Church, downtown. Since we’d already taken all the family photos, they were able to immediately take off in a carriage ride while the guests cheered them on. I got this shot of them in front of the Riviera Theater, with their names on the marquee in the background. The historic theater had been converted into a gorgeous dining hall for their reception. The fantastic day concluded with lots of fellowship, laughter, music, and dancing…all in all a PERFECT wedding day for a PERFECT couple!!! Click here to see the rest of their photos…

It’s been several weeks since I’ve had a chance to write on the Blog. Cami & I have just been SLAMMED with the “Christmas Rush”. But I’ll get back to update you soon on some REALLY COOL events we’ve photographed recently! In the meantime, Norma Mackenzie, an old friend from my high-school days at TASOK, shared this with me. It really puts the world into perspective! Enjoy…
