February 12, 2010 is the day people in Charleston, South Carolina will always remember as the day snow fell. I mean, really fell. We got close to 7 inches of snow.
Since I had never ever had snow before and had never really seen snow up close (except for in the glaciers of Alaska that is), I didn’t know that snow here in Charleston was a big deal.
Our puppy Shutter had lots of fun in the snow. As soon as the snow started falling she tried to eat it all and shoveled the snow into her mouth.
Here is a photo of Shutter jumping on a fence in the snow.
Here is Ira & Joseph’s Wedding Highlights Video from their wedding in the Immaculate Conception Church and Francis Marion Hotel in Charleston, South Carolina.
Tori & Wally had a beautiful wedding in Alhambra Hall, Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.
It was raining really hard while we were driving to the wedding. Good thing Mount Pleasant is climate controlled and it just a rained a little bit there.
Here is a picture of the groom before the wedding.

I do love taking photos of people taking photos! This guy has great composition!
We love this photo of our puppy Shutter. It’s kinda blurry (ok, it’s a lot blurry), but it just captures her personality so much that we had to share. She’s fun, rebellious, a little crazy and she sure loves water.
Twice a day we take her for a walk. Everytime she tries to jump into puddles and roll around in mud and tries to get that earthy smell on her. Every other day she succeeds and gets so dirty and muddy that we have to bathe her (which she does not like at all, even though she loves to jump into the water so much).
Gabe needed some new model headshots for his comp card. We shot his session in Riverfront Park at the former Charleston Naval Base in North Charleston, South Carolina.
We just did a OpLove Homecoming Session for Jessica and Bradley in the Charleston Air Force Base in Charleston, South Carolina.
OPLove or Operation : Love Reunited is a non-profit organization that offers FREE Pre-deployment, Deployment and Homecoming Photography Sessions for members of the military.
Bradley is coming home after a few months of serving in Qatar. Jessica and their family are fetching him in the Charleston Air Force Base.
A friend of Jessica’s gave her this sticker for her car that says, “If I’m speeding, it’s cuz I’m going to pick up My Husband! My HERO is home from Qatar!” She definitely did not get caught speeding, and she even had some cars honk at her.
Jessica literally had her hands like this the entire time the plane was landing. So much anticipation.
The plane arrived a few hours earlier than originally planned. They were probably really excited to get home.
Here is Bradley waving from the plane.
Everybody was really happy to see him.
Bradley gave Jessica a single long-stemmed rose.
