Action 9? Better Business Bureau? All I know, is don’t trust this woman with your items …
On October 8, 2009, I dropped off several items to be consigned with It’s a Bridal Thing. At the time, it was located on 7512 E Independence Blvd, Suite 104, Charlotte, NC 28227. I spoke with the owner, Sonya Fogle, and she agreed to sell three items for me: a wedding dress, a veil, and…

‘You’re every line, you’re every word …’
As if designing a wedding album isn’t enough fun, I got to design one for one of my closest childhood friends not too long ago. Jenny and Gary got married in May 2008 and I got to be a huge part of it by creating their graphics – wedding programs, favor books, and their wedding…

On social graces
I was talking to Jenny yesterday and we were discussing some social faux pas, such as staring at someone’s computer screen while they are working, or watching someone nursing a baby a little too closely … Truthfully, I think many of these sorts of things happen when people are zoning out, not paying attention. Looking…

modern. original. design.
Had the opportunity to update the ad for Melissa Oyler Designs for the September edition of Natural Awakenings Magazine (which I also do layout/design for). Check it out – what do you think?

‘She doesn’t even act married’
I am married. And I don’t always wear my rings. Recent gossip has decided to surround this fact. Before you burn me at the stake, let me explain why. ———————– Almost 5 years into my marriage, and I still don’t quite have this wedding-ring thing down yet. I forget to wear them when I should…

Beautiful bride makes memorable photos
The best part about shooting a wedding is getting a front-row seat to the couple’s magical day. I won’t subject you to all 1,400 of Amanda and Jason’s wedding photos (if you want to see them, click here: password Amanda), but I thought I’d pick out a few that stood out to me for one…

Wedding bloopers
Weddings wouldn’t be fun without some laughs, would they? A picture is worth 1,000 words (even taken with your own camera) but occasionally, taken out of context, the words can be much different than the reality. As I poured over the thousands (literally) of photos of Amanda and Jason’s wedding, some of them made me…

Don’t bring a camera to a wedding
Unless you are the photographer, of course. I have worked with wedding photographers for years who have preached this. Your “job” as a wedding guest is to – be a guest. I fully understand why people ignore this – they want their own pictures, they don’t want to have to purchase them from a photographer…

Telling their happily-ever-after story
Here are some pages from the ceremony of the wedding album I designed for Lauren and Ron, who were married at the Women’s Center of Rock Hill, reception at the Center for the Arts. Photography by Tracy Kimball. The wedding party gave me some great stories about Lauren and Ron and how they fell in…

Stoli, beach sunsets and a new D300: A perfect wedding celebration
My brother-in-law got married last weekend, and Jeff and I made the trip to Clearwater, Fla., to celebrate Casey and Kristina’s big day. I was going to write a huge post about love and how apparent theirs is, how they clearly can’t wait to spend their lives together, and how inspiring and touching they are.…

One brother deploys, another marries
Yesterday was a big day in the family. One of my brothers-in-law, Gray, a First Lieutenant pilot with the Marine Corps, left for a 6-month deployment in Iraq. Another brother-in-law, Casey, tied the knot with the love of his life, Kristina, in Clearwater, Florida. A lot of emotions here, but above all, love and pride…

I heart my job
I’m putting together some files for my web site’s portfolio (it’s about time!), and I am reminded of how much I absolutely love designing wedding albums. My favorite part about my wedding albums is they’re not just picture books – I am a journalist by trade, so I enjoy telling stories. Rather than showcasing just the…

One of the nicest brides I ever met
A memory It is 2004, my first trip to Vegas and I will finally get to meet Jeff’s sole cousin, Ryan (I have a couple dozen cousins, so this one-cousinthing is a surprise to me.) Ryan and Robin are getting married one week before Christmas, and Jeff and I are full of excitement: A wedding, reuniting with…

Flashing boobs at wedding guests and other horrors
A memory It is 2004, September 04. The day of my wedding. Any stress that goes along with planning one’s wedding had escaped me the day before, as I sat at Aunt Josies’ at my bridesmaids’ luncheon surrounded by Mom, Mia (my grandmother), my sister Jenny, my aunt and cousins and bridesmaids – basically, all the…

It was a curvy road finding you
But when our eyes touched joined in our new world I could do nothing but stare and wonder what it would take to know you to hold you and then we said hello Cedar Mountain was ours but it couldn’t keep us You belonged to the shore but my heart was yours You were in…
