admin — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 01:52:24 +0000

Well you know there’s a saying where there’s fun + fabulous that equals Stephanie and Josh….. Stephanie and Josh lives in Tampa, Florida and came for a visit with their lovely friends in Tallahasse, Florida and decided to to met me in Tallahasse for a fun photo shoot. Well it turns out Stephanie and Josh are two fun, loving, a happy couple who recently got married and I think they are still “honeymooning”. You see Stephanie and Josh recently got married in Las Vegas and I must admit I was invited to watch their wedding LIVE in Vegas.. I was so happy for Stephanie to get married in Vegas, her wedding was absolutely incredible. She was a beautiful bride no doubt. I’ve know Stephanie for a long time, when I first met her at my house, I think we spent like 2 hrs just talking about things in general & etc and we’ve hit it off every since.. Stephanie is pretty cool.. She is such a sweetie and she’s gonna be like a master chef (she’s in school still learning and one day you’ll probably see her on the food network!!! – you go girl).. and I know she’s in good hands with Josh. For the first time, I met Josh in Tallahassee and he’s Stephanie’s big teddy bear.. Josh you were a super trouper, even if I got you lost to the “secret garden” but we had a grand time trying to find it however, I was on the look out for a park ranger!! I just had to wonder if I was gonna find it, but we did manage.. and now, I can’t wait to get more pictures of you guys.. So here’s some awesome shots of Stephanie and Josh.. hope you enjoy – ~ Cheers, Tina

As you can see ~ we found the secret garden, sorry Josh for taking you around the world.. I know I was happy to see it too, cause I was looking for the ranger in my book!!

Such a happy & beautiful couple. You guys are Fabulous!!

This one is my fav.. it’s the reflection pool.. so pretty and did you know this pool wasn’t that deep? I thought it was – could have fooled me!

I could see this picture on their living room wall – oh maybe a nice canvas? What do you think Stephanie??

Oh this one is funny.. I told Stephanie and Josh to be cool and relax, act natural.. Josh keep talking to Stephanie and she told him to “Look at Tina”, and Josh said.. “Oh I didn’t know” – it was a funny moment..

thanks you two love birds. I’m wishing many happy memories & best wishes for you guys in the future..

Awhile back, Ursula Page contacted a few fellow photographer friends for our get together recently. We had photographers that came from Pelham, Tallahassee, Tifton and course right here in Thomasville.. We had a great lunch together and then we headed out with some special models that assisted us.. I bet they didn’t realized that the “Paparazzi Patrol” would be on the loose? Our first model was Ashley & Joseph who volunteered their time and they look splendid as a couple, thank you for letting me capture some great pictures of you guys.. and then we have April, who is getting married very soon..she was a super trouper and she had some incredible pictures as well. I’d like to thank Bells N Beau’s Bridal who carries prom and special occasion dresses, please feel free to drop in their shop and see some incredible dresses, I’m sure you can find something elegant there! Singletary’s Flowers who donated the beautiful bouquet for our session, Jennifer of Devine Wedding and Party Planning. She was great with April.. Jennifer also assisted me recently at the Barrett’s Wedding in Cairo, Ga. and I thank you very much for your time then! So if you need a great planner – contact Jennifer for your next event. Thanks Christine for the prop and location.. I had a great time with everybody and can’t wait til the next time we get together (course wedding season is here) so maybe soon we can get together again. But for now.. I leave you with some awesome pictures. Cheers ~ Tina

Softball Gloves & Petticoats what a combination.

admin — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 04:34:23 +0000

Kaycee & Larran did a fabulous job of showing off my new petticoats I got recently. The girls had a great time taking them on a photoshoot – but Kaycee & Larran plays softball together and for the past 3 years they’ve been on the same team. Usually it’s the shorts & team short which has been their uniform – but we decided to put a twist on the uniforms – All little girls LOVES to dress up and “play ball” – so here’s our spin on the new uniform look – we think the girls should play in petticoats!!! hope ya enjoy..
