Greenville Poinsett Club Wedding

Hi everyone. I wanted to say thank you for the out pouring of kind words and support you have given us during this tough time. Craig and I are getting settled back into the swing of things, and although we miss his mom terribly, we are trying to stay positive and celebrate her life...we know that is what she would have wanted.

As expected, we are a bit behind with blogging but we wanted to share with you the wedding of Brende and Mike we shot two weeks ago. Brende and Mike were married at the Greek Orthodox Church in Greenville on April 25th. The ceremony was beautiful, as always the Greek Orthodox Church is an amazing backdrop for a ceremony with beautiful flowers provided by Greg Foster. The reception was held at the Poinsett Club, and as you would imagine with a Greek wedding, they danced the night away! Two bands provided the entertainment, Tony Williams & the Blues Express as well as Nick Demos & The Greek Islanders for the traditional Greek music.

Congratulations Brende and Mike, we are so happy for you both!
-Lindsey

Thornblade Country Club Wedding

Well, I'm actually a little sad that this day finally came and went. We first met Allison and Chris when they chose us to be their photographers a year and a half ago. After meeting with them, shooting their engagement session over two separate days, Allison's bridal session, and many consultations, we really got to know them and felt like they would be our clients forever! When I walked into Allison's getting ready room she looked at me and said, "I can't believe this day is finally here", I knew exactly what she meant.

Allison and Chris were married on April 18th at the Covenant United Methodist Church in Greer, SC. It was a wonderful ceremony...the pastor was especially funny as you can see below from the laugh on Chris's face! And the reception was held at the Thornblade Country Club. There aren't many more picturesque locations in Greenville for receptions...I love the shots we got of them down at the pond.

Well guys, we can't wait to see you when you are back from your honeymoon in Costa Rica. We will have to get together at least a few more times to work on your album design, so you won't be rid of us that quickly;) And Allison, if it is anything like helping you choose your bridal, you may actually be clients for life!! Just kidding...we really loved every minute of it. It was our pleasure to be a part of your momentous day, we wish you and your wonderful families all the best.

Our Vacation...

Just before wedding season kicks off, Craig and I like to try and get away from it all and re-group. We spent last week traveling around New England visiting friends and family along the way. Our trip started in Washington, DC for the cherry blossom festival, up to Boston and Rockport, MA for some historical site seeing and wonderful seafood eating (I could live off seafood...Craig on the other hand is not so enthusiastic), up the New Hampshire sea coast and over to Conway, NH to see the amazing Mt. Washington. It was a great world wind tour, and I was glad to finally be able to sleep a night in my own bed after 10 days on the road. The cold, rainy, and gray New England weather really made me appreciate returning to warm and green South Carolina! Below a few photos from our trip.

Our Duck Tour in Boston...I highly recommend!!
