Rustic Love!

Down a long, long scenic route, the YFA girls and I headed to Steinhatchee, FL to a quaint, rustic location that allowed for the a magnificent wedding weekend Robin & J.R.'s guests would never forget. The resort served as the perfect location for the couple's rehearsal dinner, which ended with a bonfire as guests watched a fireworks display, and ceremony. The fantastic Meg Baisden was there to capture all the fun!

Welcome Baby Ashton!

As promised....I am so happy to update everyone on the birth of baby Ashton to Jessica and John. I can not wait to meet the new little one and I am sure the entire family is basking in excitement. Of course, I had to get the first set of pics from the amazing Meg Baisden! Congrats Jess and John!

Jessica's a mommy!

This morning I opened my inbox to receive a pleasant surprise. Sheree Porter, mother of the now Jessica Kerr, emailed me a link to Jessica's new maternity pictures. You have probably seen a few pics of Jessica throughout the website from her wedding this past December 30th.

She was one of the most beautiful and photogenic brides I have ever seen. The amazing exchange between the camera and Jessica was captured by the phenomenal Meg Baisden. Not only did Meg photograph Jessica's bridal shoot, engagement shoot, and wedding, she also shot Jessica's maternity photos. By far, Meg is one of the BEST photographers I have ever met. She even shot my wedding!

When all the wedding plans have been executed and the big day has come and gone; it really means a lot when we are still able to keep in touch with the clients and families we have grown to care about. I am very excited to welcome baby Kerr to the YFA family. If this baby is anything like her mother or grandmother I am sure she will be beautiful, humble, and amazingly kind. Here are a couple of pictures from the photo shoot:

Glowing isn't even the word to describe Jessica. As soon as baby arrives I will post more pictures of the happy family.

BTW, Sheree if you are reading this let me know when we should start planning the shower!!!!

Congrats Jessica & John!

Here we go!

First and foremost I would like to say thank you for visiting my blog and taking some time to read my thoughts. Growing up I always had a diary and this seems like the new millenia's version of a diary. Anyone who knows me knows that I love relate to others (hence all the stories!) and have open dialogue about life. Therefore, I anticipate this forum to be reflective of me and my personality. If you take the time to visit often I promise you will get to see a side of me that is very personal and candid.


Besides me gushing my heart ;) look forward to hearing about all things in the wonderful world of creative, unique, and illustrative weddings and events. I am always on the search for the biggest trend and interesting edge to throwing amazing fetes. I live by the motto "Anything is Possible!" Your dream wedding is only limited to how creative our minds will go. This blog will definitely take you to destinations you have never imagined...buckle up!


To start this journey off I think it would be of utmost importance to tell you, especially those who do not know me personally, about me and my family. I have been absolutely blessed to have an amazing and supportive husband (Sherman) and the greatest gift ever given to me, my son (Jordan). In the midst of my busy world there is always a calm that soothes my soul...the thought of my guys!

Here is a picture of us taken by the amazing Meg Baisden:



On my (few) weekends off, we are always on the go with Jordan; whom is a sports fanatic. This year Jordan will be 4 years old and loves to talk about his "pretend" little sister...do you think he's dropping hints? (Eyes rolling!) I am a huge believer that people naturally have talents that manifest into their livelihood and lifestyle. When I was a child I would dress up dolls and have pretend weddings (really). Well, I think my son was born with a ball in this hand. He knew how to make basketball shots on his mini-hoop before he could walk.

Enough about me (for now)! Come back for more as we submerge in the amazingly world of WEDDINGS AND EVENTS!!!

Remember to Always Celebrate Life!
