Camden, SC Courthouse Ceremony – Jasmine + Anthony are MARRIED!

Stephanie — Sun, 14 Nov 2010 09:07:06 +0000

I had the great pleasure of meeting Jasmine and Anthony at the Kershaw County Courthouse a few weeks ago to share the joining of their lives in marriage. I feel so incredibly blessed to have been a part of this special day, and I loved how intimate and sweet the ceremony was! Jasmine and Anthony have been together for 8 years – high school sweethearts that haven’t lost a bit of spark between them. The love in their eyes filled the room, and the excitement in their eyes and voices as the judge pronounced them husband and wife, and they both declared, “We’re married!” was palpable.

Jasmine and Anthony, thank you for this opportunity to spend the precious time with you after you were married. I am honored to be able to document your love, and see the amazing chemistry you have for each other. Has anyone ever told you that you two are a GORGEOUS couple? I did about a hundred times, I know…. I couldn’t help it!

Here they are, waiting for the judge to call their names, and updating Mom with some picture messages from the courthouse!

What a cool judge!

After the ceremony, we stepped outside for some amazing newlywed portraits!

and of course, a few portraits of the beautiful bride:

The morning light was PERFECT and so delicious!

I mean, seriously…. look at how gorgeous they are!!! So adorable!!

Are you in love with them yet?

Work it, girl!

Anthony and Jasmine – Thank you again! Please keep in touch!

Michelle’s Ultrasound Baby Shower – Vision of Life – Piedmont, SC

Stephanie — Sun, 19 Sep 2010 06:37:57 +0000

I went to Michelle’s ultrasound baby shower this Saturday at Vision of Life in Piedmont, SC – she won this by registering at one of their displays/booths at one of the giant consignment sales in the area. What a great prize to win! The office itself is very nice and comfortable, with plush couches and chairs for everyone to sit on and watch the ultrasound on a flat-screen television that is mounted to the wall. Michelle had a nice, plush bed herself, and although she was getting poked and prodded the entire time, it took Audrey about 16 minutes before she would show her face to us! She obviously doesn’t know how much camera time she’ll be getting when she gets out of there – or does she?

They provided the food, decorations, and even printouts of some stills from the video – they were very generous, and it was a unique and very nice experience! I really enjoyed the staff there – extremely sweet, caring, and with a great sense of humor!

Enjoy a few of the photos I took of the event!

Vision of Life provided several beautiful prints from the baby shower – here are a few I took of the television screen as it was actually being done! Isn’t she cute?

Here is a video of when she actually smiled during the ultrasound – it was such a clear smile – we all squealed, as you will hear!

Here is Thomas, being silly… He didn’t eat the cake – he skinned his piece of cake and ate just the icing!

One of the cute printouts that Vision of Life gave Michelle – look at Audrey’s defined features! So cute already!Mmmmmmm….cake!Smiling baby, Pink punch, presents, and friends – what more can you ask for?Michelle is so happy!

Delicious punch! LOVED it! The staff actually prepared the food themselves – a really nice, personal touch. It definitely was delicious! Loved the wraps and chicken salad!

Just a few more weeks until Michelle’s maternity portraits! Stay tuned!

Karate Kid

Stephanie — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 18:45:29 +0000

Last night I went with my friend Aline to the Academy of Shotokan Karate to watch her class practice their moves. The dojo is located in Lexington, SC and I was extremely impressed with the class and with the sensei! Karate is so beautiful in its discipline and philosophy. I love how significant every move is, and how it it focuses maximum impact and damage with such artistic beauty. If you ever have a chance to go to a practice and watch or participate, I highly recommend it.

Here are some photos I took last night of the practice! Please leave a comment and tell me your favorites! For more photos from that night, check out the gallery under “Events” at http://www.stephaniesnyderphotography.com!
