Dora & Brent go GREEN

Saturday, August 30th, 2008

What do Dora, Brent, a rabbit, a hummingbird and I have in common? They all love Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden and had a blast at Dora and Brent’s wedding!

These two are just so cute and the first hours of married life gave Brent wings—as you can see! Their colorful cake was done by Elizabethan Delights—way cool how it looked plain white from the side but when you approached it you saw the colored tops!

We even dared to take pictures inside the new Orchid Conservatory. This is a beautiful place, but believe me: taking pictures on an August afternoon there is hard work—for subjects and photographer alike! :-)

Want Answers? ChaCha!

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

This is so cool! David Tutera told us about this and we had to try it out immediately:

If you have a question you need answered right now (because you have to be right – like I always do …) then text the question to chacha (242242). Shortly after you will get a text back with the answer. Amazing!

Of course I had to ask ChaCha about myself :-) What was the answer? Find out yourself!

If you want to learn more about ChaCha, just go to their website: http://www.chacha.com

ChaCha. Ask Away.

Happy Birthday To Me – and a revamped Website

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

To treat myself today with a little birthday present, the GG-Images website got a complete overhaul! Go and check it out! Faster and easier to navigate, huge images and tons of all new pictures in the galleries.

I was blown away by the response to what I showed at the Bridal Showcase and wanted to make sure that everybody is able to see it on the website.
I am so excited and if you like what you see, make sure to come back and comment here.

The Bridal Showcase – Thank you for coming!

Monday, August 18th, 2008

Last Sunday’s Bridal Showcase at the Charlotte, NC Convention Center featured a new layout and the GG-Images booth got a lot of traffic and overwhelmingly positive response. Thank you for coming!

The art prints that I showed got praise from brides & grooms as well as from vendors and our friendly competition. They will be featured on the revamped website in the next few days. Make sure to check it out!

And I am already thinking about next January’s booth. It’s gonna be a hit! :-)

Alex & Paul & some Plants

Sunday, August 10th, 2008

I am so blessed that I have all those amazingly nice clients. And every now and then I leave a wedding and think “Gosh, this was awesome!”

Last weekend this happened again, when I got into the car after photographing Alex and Paul’s wedding at Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden in Belmont, NC. Not only that the two are a handsome couple but the whole day had this special something. The two were so laid back and also great in front of the camera. Everything was special, even their honeymoon is: they went on a road trip across the USA the same evening!
