Veterans Day at the Atlanta Athletic Club 2013

Those that truly know me, know that I am a very patriotic person. Especially those that went to art school with me. But that is another story. I was excited when I was asked to photograph the Veterans Day event at the Atlanta Athletic Club. The club invited soldiers from Fort Benning to attend the event.
I have to admit that sometimes while I'm taking pictures I feel moments when it is inappropriate to be taking pictures. I am hired to take pictures, and document everything through the event so I follow suit.
During the Star Spangled Banner, and the Pledge of Allegiance I felt it was wrong of me to be in the presence and not have my and hand over my heart. I did continue to take pictures, but once I had the shot I took the moment to do so.  I did not photograph some of the Veterans shedding tears during a fellow soldiers speech. He spoke about what it is that a soldier does and why........and "Its for the man beside him"!

Charleston Wedding at Cottage on the Creek!

On October 4th my cousin Kelley and her Fiance Zachariah Crenshaw got married at Cottage on the Creek! It is a beautiful venue next to some fun restaurants and bars in Mount Pleasant! The wedding was loads of fun, as if the apple cinnamon moonshine that was given when you checked-in wasn't a sign! She also had the most beautiful flowers that were done by Southern Vines and Garden Market!


I have to admit we became pretty crunched for time, but we made it to the top balcony just in time for the sunset. We seriously had only about five minutes maybe not even that before the sun went away!
