Christine was here for her sisters wedding from Pennsylvania, and decided to have some senior pictures taken on the beach. So glad I got to work with her. She is beautiful, smart, and I’m sure will succeed in whatever she pursues.

Thanks Christine!

Jade and Dale at the Grande Dunes Members Club

On December 3rd, the Grande Dunes Members Club was transformed into a winter wonderland! Jade and Kelly from Gigi Noelle Events planned all the little details to make Jade & Dale’s dream wedding come true! It’s was not only beautiful, but had such a cozy and intimate feel. Jade looked stunning, and her frilly sparkly dress fit in perfectly.

A great list of vendors helped pull this all off. Grande Dunes Members Club, Gigi Noelle Events…..they did details and the flowers, Broadway Jake, Little White Dress, and Incredible Edibles.

I wish I had room to show you all the little details that went into this, but below are a few of my favorite pix from the day.

Congratulations Jade & Dale (and Izzy too)!! It was really soooooo beautiful!

Bet Bet here, taking over the blog. Ok. I may be in big trouble. Maybe even fired. Here’s the thing. Brooke and Walt get their wedding pictures just before leaving on their honeymoon. They get a brief look, and I get a copy (hee hee). So….. what’s a Bet Bet to do??? I HAD to make a slideshow!

Brooke and Walt, please forgive me. Andrea did such a wonderful job on your pictures, and I love so many, and so many people have been waiting for a peak….I just had to. Your day was so incredible.

So here are a few of MY favorite pix Andrea & April took

Everything happens for a reason, that’s what Mark told me as he told the story of how he and Ann Met online. They had both been married once before and each have three kids. So….they will become not the Brady bunch….but the Timm Bunch:) Ann did not tell me that she was a photographer until almost the end of our shoot!! No pressure there:) It was such a please to get to know you guys and get the opportunity to work with you before your big day:) Wedding pictures coming soon

Kelly & Trey – Pharr House Wedding

Brooke — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 15:42:15 +0000

Kelly and Trey married at the Pharr House in Myrtle Beach on September 24th. They had come here a week earlier, and spent all week decorating, and attending to every little detail….and they were so beautiful and beachy! Unfortunately, the skies opened up, and it poured a good part of the day. Enough that most activities had to be moved inside. It made for a beautiful rainbow above them, as they exchanged vows and the sun peeked out briefly.

They had a rainbow color theme that was perfect for the beach, and with wedding party of 25, every color of that beautiful rainbow was represented! Something really cool wast the palm trees, made out of pineapples on the fruit table…check it out!

Wow. Talk about being WAY behind on blogging!! Yikes! I still have 6 weddings from last year to show you….along with a bunch of other stuff – lol. I have really been very busy a work, along with getting married myself, a trip to Oregon, the holidays, and I’m leaving for my honeymoon on Saturday!

I’ll start with Sara & Corey’s wedding at the beautiful Grande Dunes Marina Inn on October 1st. Sara looked stunning!! The weather was gorgeous, and everything, with the assistance of Memorable Moments event planning…was perfection. With this group of bridesmaids and groomsmen, I knew right away that the party was ON! If you didn’t have fun at this wedding….check your pulse

Here are a few pictures from their day. Sara, Corey…sorry it took me so long. It truly was a perfect day!

Amy & Jesse

While visiting Myrtle Beach, Amy and Jesse wanted to get their engagement pictures. I had a great time working with them and when I got to talking to Jesse….he knew exactly the small town in Montana that I grew up in!! His work takes him all over but it is rare around here for people to know of Hamilton:) It was great to meet you guys and get the opportunity to work with you. Congratulations on your up coming wedding!!!

The Bird Family

I got to work with the Bird Family for our Christmas Special that we had. Poor little Miss Emily was not feeling too well so we didn’t get too many smiles out of her but we still had a good time:) It was so great to meet you and get the opportunity to work with you. I hope you have a great Holiday Season:)

Jessica & Robert – Grade Dunes Ocean Club 9/23/11

Brooke — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 18:36:24 +0000

Jess & Robert’s wedding was one of the best of this year! They had it all…and a wonderful story as well. This wedding was actually a vow renewal. They married, 10 years before, to the date. Robert was serving our country in the military, and they were unable to have the wedding they wanted. They also decided to wait to start a family, till after their perfect day. Well….this day was perfect and more. The flowers by Little Shop of Flowers were G E O R G O U S. The Ocean Club looked beautiful. Jessica, in her perfect Pricilla of Boston Platinum dress looked STUNNING. And Robert — wow! The best part was Jessica & Robert themselves. They were so fun, and willing to take a little time to play with me

They shared a beautiful first look, had a unique and very meaningful Rock Ceremony, and the reception was sooooo fun. I could go on and on and on….but instead, I’ll let you take a peek
