Callanwolde Fine Art Center

All I have to say is simply stunning.

Heidi and Kevin were married at the Callanwolde Fine Art Center near Downtown Atlanta.

Thank you to the incredible Carla Duncan with On Occasions of Atlanta and her floral art and creativity!

Jeannine Kennedy with Favor Events for handling things seamlessly.

Of course my EXTREMELY talented friend and colleague Chris Casatelli for his photographic excellence and continuing willingness to dive in head first!

To Heidi and Kevin my passionate couple: I enjoyed every minute spent with you and your kind hearts. Thank you for engaging in my vision and allowing Chris and I to document your wedding with trust and warmth. It is because of you, that I will begin my 14th year of creating art at weddings with passion and vigor!

Art. Art. Art

Also in July, I disappeared for 3 weeks.....yes and it was incredible. I took some time for myself, my creativity and most of all art! The location: Penland School located in the mountains of North Carolina. Where the most renowned artists spend a few weeks of their summer and fall teaching and creating works of art. Here are a few photos from my adventure! I spent my days learning to create collographic prints with international artist and our very own UF Professor Robert Mueller.

Here are a few photos from my adventure:


This is a shot from my drive in the mornings.

Sawgrass Resort & Spa, Jacksonville Beach - Florida

Ok, so I seem to dodge, run from, drive through, or chase tropical storms or hurricanes at least once a year. This time it was tropical storm Fay. Next week it will be hurricane Ike!!!! That's what you get for living on the coast! I have to say though, that my fabulous couples make each adventure even more fabulous!!! Sarah and Ryan - I'm sorry we didn't get to shoot your wedding day at the beach.....as the night before you were barraged with tumultuous weather, wind, rain etc...nonetheless the wedding was stunning. Thanks for another killer wedding experience!
