Jeremy & Carrie Doyle

Carrie & Jeremy Doyle were married on October 20th 2007! And I think they were very happy all the planning and chaos is finally finished! The boys had a drink at the bar (pretending) to celebrate the occasion.

Carrie and her father waited patiently for the ceremony to begin. Pretty shot I could not resist!

So the weddign party was happy to take a seat for this photo. I think they are smiling extra big since this was one of the last photos before going to the party!A pretty moment by lake-side at the Gates Four Country Club in Fayetteville.Favorite silly photo of the night. Catching the bouquet never seemed so dangerous!!

Parting is such sweet sorrow...Especially when it is me!

So my 3 year stretch at TOC will be ending November 2nd. I am sorry to leave; but happy to try out some new career options. I am currently taking night classes to hone my art skills and from there the possibilities are endless! I mean what is life without taking some chances? But don’t think I didn’t love every minute with you guys. I have grown very close to many of my clients and will miss you all very much. Through the TOC wedding process I have come to consider many of you no longer clients but good friends. We have gone through a lot together; from engagement photos to party time... it is no surprise we became friends along the way.

But hey just because I am gone doesn’t mean I don’t want to hear about your life. I want to hear about the new home, puppy or baby; seriously… I expect a summary from each of you! No really I mean it!

The Glass Crew

So here another another awesome example of one of our couples taking advantage of their lifetime portrait certificate!Introducing Courtnay, Jonathan and Goliath (doggie) Glass.Courtnay and Jonathan were married last October at the Hilton RTP and as you can see they are doing just fine. This cutie-patootie couple are still in the cuddly newlywed phase. Somehow I don't think they will be growing out of this phase anytime soon! Say it with me AWWWW. Seriously what a cute crew!

Jeremy

Jeremy is one of our most recent seniors ( in highschool NOT senior citizen). Jeremy plans on attending University of Massachusetts next Fall and becoming a doctor. I hope you like school Jeremy cause you will be there a long time!

Jon & Kristen Ferris

Jon and Kristen Ferris were married on September 8th, 2007 at Sarah P Duke Gardens.
Eventhough the weather was warm Jon and Kristen never let the heat get to them. I guess the photographers were sweating enough for everyone!
Fun fact: During the ceremony Kristen and Jon choose "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds Five to be sang, which happens to be my husband's and I first dance song. If you haven't heard the song you are missing out!This was definetly a fun crowd. The groomsmen kept everyone laughing all day. The party continued at Parizade; a casual chic Mediterranean restaurant in Durham. The cool decor, yummy food and friendly staff makes Parizade an awesome place to eat and to party. When the sun went down the dancing began. You couldn't keep the guests off the dance floor! Oh and to top off the night the guests chowed down on some world famous (heard about them all day) believe it or not burritos! I have to admit they were awesome!

MELISSA

Megan & John Mandulak

Megan are John are one of our couples from 2005! Actually they were married on Septemeber 24th at Highgrove. They of course had an awesome wedding and are still doing well!

One of the fun things we like to give to our clients is a Life Time Portrait certificate. What that means is every year the happy couple is married they get a free photoshoot with us. So if you have puppies or babies it is an fun way to keeping documenting your life!

Besides we get very attached to our couples during the wedding process and we want to stay in touch. What can I say we get a little lonely and need any excuse for people to come visit!

Vegas the Mandulak's dog was bubbling over with doggy energy. She seemed happy to be out meeting new people!Cuter than ever!

I think this doggy knows it really is all about her! Silly Vegas!
