My cousin Amy was in town for a few days last week and wanted to have some senior portraits done. Amy is a wonderful actress from North Carolina and is currently auditioning for conservatories across the U.S. I can’t wait to see where life takes her next.

I decided to end this year right on the blog. Here are some personal art projects that I have been working on from Spain.

Christy and Chris are getting married… right this minute! Christy made me promise not to put these photos up until after her wedding because she didn’t want Chris to get a look at the dress before he saw her in it on their wedding day. I am as we speak wearing a super cute dress from Anthropologie and high heels (what?) while attending Chris and Christy’s wedding as a guest. If you have seen me in the past few weeks I might have mentioned that I get to go to their wedding as a guest. THIS NEVER HAPPENS! Out of the 20 or so weddings that I photograph each year, I might get invited to one if that, just to just enjoy. So yes, my excitement is great.

Christy is addicted to photography. Literally every time I get a phone call from her she asks about another session that she would like to hire HA! Photography for. For this session, she let me do whatever I wanted. When I mentioned that I wanted to do a session by my house because it looks like it could be out of a catalog from Anthropologie, I had her ecstatic. I said her favorite word: Anthropologie!

This lovely lady is getting married in November! Christy hired me to photograph her Bridal Shower a few weeks ago at the Ye Olde English Tea Room in Lake Mary, FL.

Christy is such a beautiful woman, and has one of the kindest hearts I have ever known. I can’t wait to attend your wedding!

Inspiration, where does it come from?

The inspiration for this post came from the oh so fabulous Anthropologie. This month’s Antro catalog was especially wonderful. Looking through back catalogs of Anthropologie I noticed that each catalog had a specific theme. There is one catalog months and months back that was photographed entirely underwater! Each catalog is so distinctly different while still having that “Anthropologie” look. There is consistency in their style while still having an openness to explore. This is exactly what I am trying to achieve in the next stage of my photography, consistency & exploration.

Laura and John agreed to model for this exploration photo session. Laura and John were one of the first models for HA! Photography over three years ago. Laura and I have been friends since the awkward days of middle school dances and high school youth group. Laura and John are not professional models, but they sure could be!
