Vintage Love - Charlotte Portrait Photography

admin — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 20:31:40 +0000

This little project I’ve been working on for a few months now isn’t really anything new at all. These old school portraits resemble probably prints of your mother’s or grandmother’s. I originally did one to replicate one of a granddaughter that we printed on a fine art bamboo paper, giving the overall look warm and antique. I love how these are working out, and they are a nice addition to the non traditional photos that many are doing. So my no means is this a new art, but one that I think is absolutely stunning. I will be featuring these on my site very soon! xoxo

Kennette and Mark: Dear to my heart…

admin — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 04:45:32 +0000

This is a special post from me, because next year my sweet sweet Kennette will be marrying Mark, the love of her life. Kennette is the sister to one of my brides from several years ago, Amy. That is when our story began… Amy’s wedding festivities came and went, after albums and print making, it really is a bittersweet time in a photographers world. You are so happy for your client, but the communication pretty much ends until those babes arrive. Then Amy and Kennette’s older sister also got married, I shot that one as well.. Kennette then tells me she’s dating this boy named Mark C. Mark, my husband’s cousin Mark? I ask. And there we were “holy cow, we’re almost family, ha!” Random.

After college, Kennette came to work for ACP, as my designer and office manager. She has been my sidekick, dance partner via desk dance party, and loves my baby Eva. Even though Kennette has moved forward, she still helps us out, and still designs for us. I am thrilled to be a part of their day next year, and so happy to welcome Kennette to our side. I love you, thank you for all your ACP love!

Fall Mini Sessions!

Hello everyone! Fall Mini Sessions are Here!

Southern Fried Musicians Association, for sure.

Here’s the skinny. I know these boys. They are amazing at what they do, and not only do they make good music together, they represent what being a good artist is all about. Humanity. Check out the website, go see a show!

Beginning in late 1999 and beginning of 2000 , Eric Hartness , Stephen Sharpe , Brian Gaither , Dale Beatty , and Tommy Beaver got together and started writing and recording songs for “Southern Fried” to start performing.The band played extensively for two years until the drummer Dale Beatty was called to serve the country.At this time the band went back to writing music for his return. Coming home was bittersweet after nearly losing his life when an Iraqi roadside landmine exploded , and nearly disintegrated the Humvee he was in. After a double amputation, several surgeries , and extensive rehabilitation, his triumphant return spawned new life for the band and gave new inspiration to all of his family.Since then SFMA has been playing every opportunity growing its fan base and writing new music constantly. They later added guitarist and former band mate Russell Dye to the sound and adopted the suffix “Musicians Association”, and have been busy playing Rock and Roll , Country Blues, Rockabilly and their own brand of “Hillbilly Voo~Doo Music” for audiences everywhere. We hope to see you soon…

The Band Members Are :
Eric Hartness: Lead Vox Harp
Stephen Sharpe:Lead Guitar Slide Guitar Piano ,and Keyboards
Brian Gaither: Rhythm ,Lead Guitar
Dale Beatty: Drums Percussion
Tommy Beaver: Bass Guitar
Russell Dye: Rhythm ,Lead Guitar Backup Vox

Hey friends! So I have been trying to get my head around weddings this year, and they are all coming together, finally! I was fortunate enough to have Dana Andreasson cover this wedding for me. She and Saul did an amazing job! I just love all of Missy’s details, and what a beautiful couple! Enjoy! xoxo
