Happy Friends!! Last Friday I flew to New York City to document a behind the scenes look at  New York International Bridal Week for Southern Bride & Groom Magazine.  Twice a year designers come for all over and debut their new collections for the upcoming season. SB&G had a few local bridal boutiques attend as well which was such fun seeing them in action as they decided which gowns they thought would be a good fit for their clientele. Be sure to check out SB&G's blog next week for a more detailed look at our experience. For now, here is a peak at instagram photos compiled from both Jenna and I. Be sure to follow me on instagram at :: @cynkain and Jenna at @sthrnbridegroom. Happy Friday!

Happy New Year, friends!!! I rang in the new year with the lovely couple you see below...my goodness, what a fabulous way to kick-off your marriage!

Now while I love shooting weddings and families, I get so excited to work on projects outside of that world...anything from product shoots to headshots for creative business owners and editorials. When Jessie approached me about photographing her home for a feature on The Everygirl blog I immediately jumped on board. Not only is Jessie a sweetheart, but to have my work featured on one of my favorite online resources made this such an exciting opportunity! CLICK HERE to see the full gallery of Jessie's lovely home tour and interview.   Here's a peek at a few of my favorites below, but be sure to check out the full gallery HERE. Leave some love if you enjoyed the feature!  I just love, love, love this last image! Jessie and her handsome pup Hank...she and her hubby also have another pup you will get to meet by checking out the feature on The Everygirl. Big thanks to Jessie and The Everygirl for letting me participate in this fun project!
