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)

Partners in Crime!

Wedding Canvas Website

posted by Lisa | filed under: Fun, Tips, weddings

This website is so cool- I had to share it! If you are planning a wedding- this would be a great way to start thinking of a cohesive color palate and theme. Bridal Canvas has all of these photos that you can pick and choose from to create the look and feel of your wedding. It is so much fun! I had to make one for myself- this is my pretend wedding. What do you think?

Snow Day!

posted by Lisa | filed under: Fun

It's a rare 'snow day' at the beach in Wilmington today. It is the first time that it has snowed since we moved here 3 years ago. It looks like a pretty snow globe when you look at the window. The kids are out of school today and they are roaming the neighborhood throwing snowballs at each other. Good times!

Wedding ~ Nina and Will

posted by Lisa | filed under: Fun, weddings

Nina and Will picked the perfect day for a beach wedding. The first Saturday in October is usually a safe bet for great weather. The ceremony was a true reflection of their love and personalities. The groom and all his friends are musicians so each of the groomsmen played a different instrument as they walked down the isle. Once at the altar, they played as Nina walked in. It was a great way to have music at an outdoor wedding. Their super cute dog was the ring bearer. It was a really sweet wedding that showed just how in love the couple is. We are so happy for them. Congratulations Nina and Will.

Portrait ~ Baby Pug

posted by Lisa | filed under: Fun, Pet Portraits

Okay, if there was a contest for the cutest puppy in the world...I think this little guy would win! Only 6 weeks old and as adorable as can be!!! He doesn't even have a name yet- but he has a Hawaiian shirt. Our friends got this new baby over the weekend- and, of course, I couldn't resist bringing my camera over for a photo session!

Already a fan!
