Citrus Gourmet to Go

If you haven’t been to Citrus on East Bay Street yet you’re missing out. I’m lucky enough to live around the corner from Jon Anderson’s yummy spot and nothing is easier than popping by his place at 6pm to pick up short ribs and roasted veggies after a busy day. If you’re in search of a personal chef he’s your man, and he also serves up lunch and a mean brownie if you need some sweets for your Valentine. Keep an eye out for his new website, we took a few pictures for it last week!

Catching up with Jane and Glenn

There are few things that I enjoy more than hearing from former brides who want me to photograph their new and growing families. I recently got to catch up with a couple who just moved back to the Charleston area after getting married here 8 years ago. Here are Jane and Glenn in 2003:

And here they are in 2012:

Their two dogs stayed at home enjoying some quiet time so the five Stiegmans and I ran around their neighborhood on a sunny but brisk afternoon. I had a blast chasing the kids through the playground and around the lake. And don’t worry, no children were harmed during the shoot, little Davis is only PRETENDING to knock his brother in the face on the swings…

This sweet little spring wedding is today’s feature on the wedding row! It was my first chance to shoot at the gorgeous Charleston Tea Plantation and the fields and grand oaks make a phenomenal setting for a southern soiree.

Happy 2012!

How time flies. This is the year I probably have to stop taking pictures of Marcus naked, so I’m going to squeeze a few more in while I can.

The Big Apple

Last weekend I left the babies at home for three nights to spend some time in the city. I was staring so much at other people’s children they probably thought I was a pedophile but I just missed the boys so much I couldn’t help myself. In spite of feeling like I was traveling without my right hand, Marc and I had a great trip, we explored some new places, ate (way too much) fabulous food and caught up with old friends. The weather was fantastic and I shot a pile of film for a new project. And for once, I was finally on the side of the airplane with the good view.

Meet baby Finn

Finn is a jolly 4 month old that has the kind of belly you could just bury your face in. His huge, expressive eyes had me captivated and he stole my heart the moment I turned my lens on him!

Now I don’t have to swim with sharks

Earlier this month I was fortunate enough to attend the Engage:11 Grand Cayman conference. The Engage conferences are ongoing luxury wedding summits that bring together the best and most influential minds in the wedding industry in a non competitive environment. I had wanted to attend one for years but I was always about to have or had just had a baby every time they were scheduled. I’m so glad I was able to attend this year, though I came home to a daunting pile of emails, editing and a ridiculous bill from AT&T, the experience I had was unforgettable. I was able to hear Carley Roney, Sylvia Winestock, Bryan Rafanelli, Brian and Andy Marcus, Donna Von Breuning and Barbara Corcoran speak, just to name a few. The days were packed full of presentations but we did get a break to sail a catamaran out to a shelf in the ocean where you can swim with stingrays and I got to touch the silky underbelly of a HUGE ray. Very cool.

Can’t wait until the next one!
