It was cold outside but we still managed. Sara is getting married in January at the Founders Inn so we decided to go give the new dress a test drive. It handled like a new Ferrari in Modena. Yeah, Im a bit of a car nut!

After a week in the Florida Keys on my Honeymoon it was back to work the next day. Jennifer & Nick jump started me back into action. We strolled around Norfolk taking pictures along the way while me and Nick talked about missing football, after all it was Sunday. Melanie & Jennifer talked about….. well, jewelry & careers it sounded like. In all, we still had a blast and got some great shots along the way. Looking forward to your wedding in Hatteras you two. Nick….enjoy some football this Sunday.
Had to include a picture of their nameless cat…. Im thinking Rocky!

Beau- I don’t think we have ever looked so good! It took two weeks but we finally decided on the cat’s name (sort of), it’s Jack.
Regina & Jason’s wedding at The Cavalier Golf & Yacht Club was excellent. Details galore, tons of friends and family (187 to be exact), and a beautiful sunset. I had a great time, thanks to the both of you. Enjoy the pics, plenty more where these came from.

Beau, you did a great job on this wedding. Nice light.
Last weekend I had the opportunity to photograph my friend’s wedding, Mike & Lisa, at the beautiful Arnold Palmer Signature Course. Thank you both for a wonderful time, I wish you two a lifetime of happiness together. Special thank you to Staci of The Signature, for all your help and coordination, it was a pleasure to work with you. Debbie Pence of Fluttering Flowers, as usual your flowers were amazing. Enjoy the photos Mike & Lisa.
This is what happens when country boys go golfing, they pee in the bunkers…. can’t take these guys anywhere. LOL By the way this shot was
requested by the best man.
We decided after the wedding to go for a little drive.
This is where the party happened! BEFORE
AFTER!

I received a unique opportunity to photograph the homecoming of F-18 fighter squad VFA-143 (Pukin Dogs) this week. Shelby called me about three months ago to arrange photographing her husbands squad coming home from a six month deployment. This was a surprise for him because while at sea he was promoted to CO of VFA-143 Pukin Dogs and she wanted his first return home as CO captured. Not to mention that his first child was born two days prior to his deployment and Shelby wanted him photographed seeing his daughter also. It was an extreme honor for me to do this, I have a huge respect for fighter pilots and their families. Shelby, thank you for this opportunity… I will never forget it.
That’s CO Ellzey in the front, leading the way for F-18 squad VFA-143 Pukin Dogs.
My office chair looks nothing like that, bummer.
Nice action sequence of Shelby welcoming home her man.
First time in CO Ellzey see’s his baby since leaving her at two days old.
This was my favorite shot of the day. As CO Ellzey enjoys a moment with his daughter just before the press comes over for an interview.
Be careful Jake, I think she’s teething
CO Ellzey’s office.

It is such a sacrifice our service men and women make for our freedom; a greater personal sacrifice as well!! We are grateful, America is blessed by their committment to serve and protect!

I’m Jake’s Mother, Shelby’s mother-in law, McCall’s grandmother!
I’m shedding tears from looking at my beautiful family. We have to understand and fully respect the sacrifices made by our service men and women and their families. The pictures tell the story!
Carl and I have been through many deployments with Jake. It does not get easier even though we have total confidence in his professional abilities. This was the hardest as he had to leave Shelby and McCall. It’s great seeing this wonderful reunion.
God Bless America!
