Elizabeth & Scott http://www.mccauleyphotoblog.com/index.cfm?postID=218 http://www.mccauleyphotoblog.com/index.cfm?postID=218 Mon, 26 Jul 2010 23:38:00 GMT
Elizabeth and Scott's day was absolutely amazing and the storms that were swirling by didn't cause anyone to skip a beat. Elizabeth and Scott just broke out in laughter when the rain started coming down in the middle of their outdoor ceremony...talk about good sports! It was such a memorable day and I personally think the cute umbrellas that had to go up for a short time made for some great photos. :) Elizabeth ... Scott were radiant and, as you will see below, they were beaming the entire day!

Elizabeth ... Scott - thank you from the bottom of my heart for having us photograph your day. It was such an incredible honor!!

Venue: Bearpath Golf ... Country Club
Florist: Ashley Fox Designs
Entertainment: Bill Hermann





Bearpath is such a gorgeous setting for an outdoor wedding


Elizabeth just about to see Scott for the first time that day!



Ashley Fox Designs did an extraordinary job on the flowers




A little rain to give the couple good luck (not that they need it) :)


The rain stopped just in time for Elizabeth ... Scott to exchange rings...it was perfect :)





They were so much fun to photograph!



Bill Hermann had the reception hopping from start to finish!

Stay little just a little longer Alexander so that I can kiss your sweet toes and tuck you under my chin for, well, until I'm ready for you to grow. Two weeks ago when you were put on my chest and you looked peacefully into my eyes, I knew that your Dad and I would never be the same. I will never forget that feeling. I will never forget the joy in my heart and the love that poured out as I held you for the first time. You have changed us forever little Alex. We love you to the moon and back.


*The photos below are a compilation of my work and my good friend Kari's (she also photographed our wedding). I am always in awe of Kari's work and will always cherish the photos she took of our little family)

Nothing But Love http://www.mccauleyphotoblog.com/index.cfm?postID=214 http://www.mccauleyphotoblog.com/index.cfm?postID=214 Sat, 05 Jun 2010 12:53:00 GMT

He's here http://www.mccauleyphotoblog.com/index.cfm?postID=213 http://www.mccauleyphotoblog.com/index.cfm?postID=213 Mon, 31 May 2010 14:29:00 GMT
The entire experience has overwhelmed me with love and finding the words to describe it is impossible. Although we had 9 months to prepare for this day - reading books, talking to other mothers, going to child birth classes, etc...nothing truly prepared me for what is now my life. I had plenty of time to dream about what his birthday would look like, but the intensity of labor surprised me (to say the least) yet transformed me as the hours passed by into this person who would do absolutely anything for this little guy who is propped in my arms as I type. My heart is overflowing and my eyes are rarely on anything but him. My life has completely changed...and I'm convinced it doesn't get any better than this.

(there are more photos to come but I have a little guy calling for me) :)


Our sweet little Alex



My everything :)

DJ, Elizabeth & Addison http://www.mccauleyphotoblog.com/index.cfm?postID=210 http://www.mccauleyphotoblog.com/index.cfm?postID=210 Thu, 13 May 2010 15:19:00 GMT here and here. I absolutely love photographing them even though it's hard to keep the camera from shaking like crazy from all of the laughter that is had. :)

Elizabeth is having her 2nd little girl on May 25th - the same day that I'm due! It's going to be a fun summer on Major Avenue! :)


At first, I was a little concerned when I would take a picture and Addison would squeeze her eyes shut...she's almost 2. :)


She then told me what was up.


Mom and Dad did a little pleading


And alas, Addison smiled...with her eyes open. :)




She's quite the serious clapper.


One of my favorites!


Elizabeth is one hot mama! I can't wait to meet her little girl at the end of the month!


I just love this series in the field...







And it only makes sense to wrap it up with a little peek-a-boo!
