Almost There

Please go to Evoke Photography's new blog-site to see all new posts. This blog is no longer active.

Countdown

This Monday it is presently planned for my present site to be ripped down & replaced within 3-4 days with the new site.. This blog will stay up, but this will be my last post here. So, from now on you will access my blog directly in my new blog-site (where the website & blog marry), which will be my website address: www.evokenc.com

Thank you everyone for helping me through this!! Thank you Ken for taking new pics of me for the new site. And a GIGANTIC "I LOVE YOU" to Culture Pilot for creating my new site. When you see it, you will be in love too. They have been so incredibly amazing to work with & at my most anal moments, they have bent over backwards for me. They have done an amazing job and I can't wait for you to see it!!


By the way, the free wedding nomination post will be deleted and decisions will start being made. SO, if you have anyone you want to nominate, this is the last week to do it!!

I'm Back!

I am back & ready to make this thang happen. This will probably be the last post for a week or so.. maybe.. maybe 1 more.. And then.. well.. Just check back in a day or two. You just don't even know.. I know, but wow.. it's just wonderful things. Soon both my website & blog will be replaced.. I just cannot even.. wow.. it's going to be something wonderful!!

Visions of me in NYC can float around in your head before the big Evoke bang happens.

And before you ask yourself - is that green jacket the only thing she owns?! No.. I just really love it. So get over it.. It's not the last time you'll see either. Me & my friend Jenn really mastered NYC.
Photo Op - Oh yeah. I'm there. Afterwards I pimped some ho's. Check out that delicious coat. haha..
Check back soon.. you don't want to wait too long.

NYC or Bust

Tomorrow I head out for NYC for an engagement session on Saturday, and I am running around like a CRAZY person. October has just about killed me, but when I get back, I promise you will see all I've been up to. For instance.. this past Friday I had 2 engagements, Saturday a bridal, Sunday an engagement, and 2 mini engagement sessions at the fair last night... and it seems all of October has been this way for me. I love the constant shooting - crave it. But it leaves little room for the intensity of post production. SO - THANK YOU to all of you that have been so patient & understanding. November will be my month of rehab, and more.. Lots of exciting things are headed Evoke's way.

Thank you Rebecca for getting me in action so all can see what I've been doing all month long!
My angle:
Wish this little country girl luck in nyc!!

I'll be returning all emails & phone calls as soon as I get back next week! THANKS!!

Booty-woir

Do I even need to say anything?!

A couple of weekends ago I spent 2 days in Charlotte photographing an amazing boudoir marathon. 6 ladies, 2 rooms, 1 AMAZING makeup artist = a fiance's dream come true. Some really amazing images came of it, but for now, this is all you get to see.

more to come...

Alex is a Senior!!

Ok... so daily blogging really hasn't work out too well for me. I'm still plugging along though & there might be 18 posts this weekend.. you just never know.

A couple of weeks ago I met Alex & her mom over at Pullen Park & we yanked out some amazing images. I love getting all of these redheads!! Alex is so beautiful & she was a lot of fun.. not to mention I love the fact that she gave me so much to work with - happy, serious, fun, moody.. Love it!! And uh.. check out her delicious heels.
Color, color & more color!!
Heels in a tree - so wrong, but so right
Work it
How cute is this?!
Alex is a cheerleader for a serious team called the Shockers..
And this would explain the shocker part of the name:
It doesn't look it, but somehow she landed on her feet. You're awesome chica!!

Just another hottie

A couple of weeks ago I had the immense pleasure of photographing Joel Hurley's daughter for her senior portraits. Joel is the owner of the Preston Woodall House in Benson, so of course we had to get some goodies there first & then bring the funk.. She is so stunning, I would photograph her in a dirt pile.. and actually, I think I did.
This fountain is one of Kaitlyn's favorite spots at the house
WHAT IN THE WORLD!?! This is super model stuff.. beautimus.
DELICIOUS
She told me she couldn't do "serious/sexy". Right...
Thanks for being such an AMAZING model Kaitlyn!!

Caliente

I really wish I could post more now, because Kristen's bridal is OUT OF CONTROL!! She is getting married 11.1, so you won't have to wait much longer. She is so incredibly fierce, intense and yet super soft in her shots. Luckily for me, I get to photograph her again this upcoming week for some engagement shots!!

I have been saturated in work - this past week or two have been pretty intense for me, but I promise I'll start including you more on all I've been doing!! It may come to some daily blogging, but I'll do whatever it takes!! A big THANK YOU to all of you that have been so patient with me in returning calls, emails, etc.. THANKS!!

Mr & Mrs Faby

9.20 Nicole & Dave got hitched.. and wow.. I'm not really sure anything can prepare you for this post. They were a CRAZY WILD crowd - and mami likes playing with a crazy wild crowd. They had their ceremony at St Francis of Assisi, and the day started off somewhat mild..

Nicole & Dave are entering their marriage with 2 beautiful children & Nicole is a wonderful mom.
Amanda grabbed a cute shot of Nicole & Kaitlyn.. and I got her grabbing it :)
I amazed myself when I got this shot of the ladies & somehow I'm not in it
The guys - nice tame shot
Dave kick started the party.. "Just Do It"
Meanwhile the ladies are being ladies
Amanda got this shot from the back while I was in the front. I LOVE how you can see Dave at the front while Nicole walks down the aisle

The hot newlyweds
yum
more yum
So, Dave used to be a wrestler back in the day & as a surprise, they walked into the reception to the Sound of HHH
There were twists all throughout the evening...
I thought it would be cute to have their baby son holding their rings, but I wasn't sure it would actually happen..
Supposedly there was a basketball somewhere.. I didn't see it myself, but it was doing some pretty wild things
And Super Man made his appearance.. he fell to the floor on his stomach, so I think there was some kryptonite somewhere
Even the garter toss had a little surprise.. Dave went searching for the garter, and to Nicole's surprise, out came their son
I was even educated a little. Somehow I made it through college without knowing what a keg stand was. Now I know
Whew!! Way to throw a party!! No one can say that wedding wasn't fun times!
