    In addition to maintaining a studio in Bristol we travel frequently throughout the Southeast and beyond to photograph weddings.

    Additionally we have a summer presence in Butte, Montana where we primarily concentrate on high school seniors.

    Through our Pageant Photography Division we photograph the Miss Maryland USA and Miss Illinois USA pageants in Bethesda and Chicago.

{ Jacque Carroll – Miss Virginia Teen USA 2010 }

Jacque stopped by the studio with the Miss Virginia USA crew for a session to update her photographs for this year’s publicity tour.

It was so much fun.  Our neighbors at the Bridal Path brought over some dresses and Jackie brought lots of great stuff to try on.

She’s excited and she”l be a great representative for Virginia throughout the year.

TERE - THESE ARE SOOO AWESOME! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I LOVE THIS ONE!

{ Paulena }

The lovely Paulena stopped by to have some senior photographs taken and I was surprised to learn that she was graduating early from Tennessee High.  And moving to Florida !

Can you do that?  She’ll miss the cold, wet winter in East Tennessee/SW Virgina!  What great motivation to study hard.   But I’m sure she’ll reconsider while sitting on the warm beaches in Boca this winter.

{ Princeton is the top dog }

It’s true, we photograph a lot of beauty contestants, seniors, and models.

But this was a chance to photograph another kind of “beauty contestant.”

Bluegrass Ivy League Z White Star  (why do dogs and English royalty have similar lengthy names?) is headed for “the show”.  He’s scored a place in the Westminster Kennel Club dog show at Madison Square Garden in New York.

It’s invitation only.  You know he must have been thrilled when he opened the letter.

This is a copy of the ad for the Westminster program book we produced.

Look for him on USA Network in February.  Then he’ll be in line for the big endorsements.  Shampoo, dog food and a film deal are just around the corner

At least I’ll be able to say I scratched his head once.

{ Emily + Robert }

Emily and Robert obsessed over two events on December 5th.  Their wedding and the SEC Championship.

Groomsmen and bridesmaids maids alike kept their Blackberrys humming and the couple updated with the latest from Atlanta.

As soon as the ceremony wrapped at the Emory & Henry Chapel the wedding party quickly decamped to the Martha Washing Inn’s bridal suite to watch the final moments of the Crimson Tide’s annihilation of the hapless Gators.

Needless the say the reception (a.k.a. victory celebration) was an especially enthusiastic rock and roll party.

Emily and Robert were beaming with happiness and excitement throughout the evening.

What more could a ‘bama fan ask for!   A beautiful bride and for the Crimson Tide to play for the national championship.  Roll tide roll!
