Renate & Brian, TIED THE KNOT

The past few weeks have been one rocky road!  After an extremely busy June, I am now coming down to some meditation time. That is, if it exists. So, now I am finding a little bit of time to blog about our June weddings! First up on the June list:

RENATE & BRAIN

Married on June 5th! (wow, it’s been that long… eeekk!)

If you don’t remember Renate and Brian, check out their engagement photos… they were awesome! Despite the rain… We made it happen! AND, not to forget her bridals!! Sigh. Love, love, love them! She is the reason I can’t stand bridals! They turn out so great… yet ‘you’ cannot post them until AFTER the wedding! Ugh… the beauty of secrets right?

Renate and Brian’s wedding day started out with no parking at the hotel, wind that made your hair a whirlwind and humidity that that made you question if it was sweat or not. Ahem, It was a wonderful day to get married… ON THE BEACH! But let me just say… Renate and Brain… YOU ROCKED IT!  They were amazing. And let me drag them EVERYWHERE to get that extra shot… or as I call it, the ‘One more’ shot!

Take a look at their wedding photos. Let us know what you think!

Renate - Tomme, I am in love with your work and the photos. I knew the day we chose you that you were going to make the magic of our day shine through the pictures. Every detail of the wedding will fade away but the pictures will last forever. I know every time I look at the pictures that I will remember how I felt on that day, during that moment. I have looked at the link so many times and every time I laugh, I smile and I cry. Thank you for all you do and being such a wonderful artist. xoxo

the baby affair

Thank you all for your patience. I know that our ‘patience’ post has been up for a long time. But, have no fear, Tomme and I have been extremely busy this month. We have had wedding after wedding, photo shoot after photo shoot. AND NOW, its time to play ‘catch up’.

SO, sit back and enjoy the ride! We have lots of things coming to you in the next couple of weeks — from weddings to baby bumps to babies… sigh. The circle of life!

Tonight, I shall blog about my experience with my recent baby affairs. They were a while back, BUT I never got the chance to blog about them on here! So, catch up step one: START.

First: Master Griffin

Mr. Precious Griffin was SUCH a trooper… from the carpet to Mama and Daddy’s arms to kitchen bowls to snuggle time to pianos and fire pits… I think we maxed out on our limit! Griffin was a little over a week old when his mama and daddy decided to do his photo shoot! And lets just say… AMAZING! Griffin was a GREAT baby during his shoot. As we all came to notice, He can just about sleep ANYWHERE!

Last: Miss Lilly (starting with the glass sink bowl)

Baby Lilly was two weeks old and a tiny lil’ thing too! She was only a little over 6lbs. That’s right. Two weeks and 6+lbs! Can you believe it! Sigh. A tiny bundle of joy that did not want to give up her paci! AND her house was just amazing! I could spend days taking photos of Baby Lilly! I sure do hope I get the privilege of taking her 3 month photos! I did get the privilege of designing her baby announcements.

If you are interested in Tomme or I taking photos of your ‘wee wittle won’ — let us know. We would love to be an addition to your new addition! ha. Just email us at gallery.tommehilton@gmail.com

*Please stay tuned as we blog about our recent JUNE wedding extravaganza’s and post our {GUEST BLOGS}

Till next time,

erica.

Themed Engagements

If you ever considered having a couple session done, why not take it a step further and add a theme it to make it more interesting? Do you have a time period that you just love? Take Melissa and Davey for instance. Davey is in the Navy and Melissa had an affinity to the 40′s. So she thrift shopped until she put her outfit together, and perfectly I must add.  Davey didn’t really have to go all out for his look. I thnk he licked his palm and slicked back his hair once or twice. *Such a hard job being a guy!*

It was a really icky day here in Charleston and luckily everyone else thought so too. We basically had the USS Yorktown to ourselves to complete the feel for the shoot.

Next time your couple session seems humdrum or if your fiancee is dreading it, let him have fun planning the shoot to his liking. This will get him involved and actually look forward to it.

Until next time. XO

We’ll see more of Melissa and Davey in October for the BIG DAY!

Belated Bridals

As anyone can imagine, keeping a groom in the dark about bridal attire before the big day is a request some brides have – well, I say that haphazardly. Sometimes brides and grooms see each other before the ceremony to share a few intimate moments alone – with a unobtrusive photographer though who sometimes has a pretty obtrusive lens. Hey, what can I say? {{ I like the big one the best}}!! Needless to say, I get really EXCITED  b/c I come back from these really kick ass bridal sessions, then just have to keep them hidden instead of post them–that’s really TOUGHH for me. Sooo…. I’m going to post some of the taboo bridals that I’ve been suppressing …… finally busting out at the seams.
