This is Stephanie, one of our former brides from a year and a half ago. She was looking for a fun birthday gift for her husband. What a great idea. The sexiest gift you can give your new husband is a set of boudoir photos. If you are getting married soon this would also be a great gift for your husband-to-be. What do you think ladies? Don't you think your guy would love this idea too! We have a studio in Apex, NC or we can always come to your home. Thanks Stephanie for letting us share these gorgeous photos.

Cassie and Keegan were married November 23rd, 2008 at the 5th Avenue Methodist Church and had their reception at Thalian Hall in Wilmington. Our last wedding of '08! Cassie chose beautiful fall colors for her wedding. We loved the deep purple bridesmaid dresses and her pretty combination of flowers for the bouquets. Cassie and Keegan had a great party with tons of friends and family! What a great wedding! Congratulations Cassie and Keegan! We loved being a part of your wedding.

Last night we were invited to a beautiful party given by Joel Hurley and Dale Herring, owners of the Preston Woodall House, in Benson. It was a celebration of their 10 year anniversary in the wedding business at the historic home. What a fantastic party! We really enjoyed the gorgeous flowers provided by Lyn of Fresh Affairs. He created very dramatic, tall arrangements with cascading white orchids, crystals, peonies and roses. My favorite! There was also a beautiful cake, excellent food, wine and great music! They attached a tent to the reception room that was lit with blue lights. It looked very 'icy' with white leather couches, candles and a clear glass bar. We were excited to be able to attend the event as a guest for a change instead of working! Although, I couldn't resist bringing my camera. I kept it simple- only one lens! Here are a few of the photos:

We are proud to be an all female photography team! So, we decided to do a photo session to represent the girls of Bella Rose Photography. We were over the photos on our website and needed to freshen things up a bit! Poor Jill wasn't even in a single photo on the website- and we can't have that! She is my number one assistant- so that just wouldn't do!
We tried out the new studio lighting up in the Apex studio and invited Wendy from Dancing Heart Photography to be our guest photographer for the day! She did an amazing job and I was so happy that she came to help us out! We couldn't have done it without her! Thank you Wendy! She made sure we looked great and spent time giving us lots of direction.
We are 'girly' girls at heart, so we decided to go for a glamorous look and a more casual look! It was so much fun! Here are the results:
Laura (Second Camera), Lisa (Lead Photographer), Jill (Photographic Assistant Extraordinaire)

I decided it would be fun to feature each couple's beautiful album as I receive them. Untold hours go into the creation of these beautiful books, so I have to show some of the highlights. This album is for Jennifer and JT. They chose a new acrylic cover that is really fantastic. I think it is my new favorite! Take a look!
Of course, my cat, Cinnamon took full advantage of the beautiful material laying on the floor after I was done taking the photos. I took her photo, and then I told her she would have to find a new place to rest!

We had so much fun taking pictures of Meredith. She had a gorgeous gown with amazing flowers by Wendy with A Beautiful Event. The beading detail on her veil was a perfect match for her dress. Bridal sessions are always our favorite. We just like to have lots of fun with our brides. We always get some traditional shots but it's the most fun to get something unique to show each bride's personality.

Wendy Boyer said: Hi Ladies- I just happened to check this out today and saw the new photos posted. You girls look FABULOUS! Thank you for the invite into your new Apex Studio! I had a fun time photographing all three of you beauties! :) I just can't believe what a small world it is - meeting Laura through a random phone call about volleyball only to find out we have so much in common! To top it off, we end up being neighbors! How crazy is that? Thank you for the kind words of thanks...you girls are such professionals that you made my job so easy! I look forward to chatting with you again soon! Wendy (05. 7.09 @ 02:06 AM)
