Yvonne and I had a great day yesterday with our youngest son Thomas. We spent the afternoon touring the campus of the University of South Carolina. Although for business reasons we try to stay pretty neutral in the whole Carolina - Clemson debate, we are a bit partial to Carolina because 2 of 3 of our children will be Gamecock Alumni. Thomas plans on majoring in Political Science with an emphasis on Constitutional studies - and he will be minoring in music. Tom will have his feet held to the fire as the head of the Poli-Sci department is Dr. Dan Sabia, our daughter Amanda's father in law! From what I know of Dan, he plays no favorites and Tom will have to bring his A-game for the next four years! We are so very proud of all three of our children. Each have wonderful God given talents and I look forward to watching them become the adults we always hoped they would become!
Getting ready for spring portraits starting tomorrow. Feeling a little giddy.
Have a Blessed Easter!
Yvonne and I traveled to Norris Tennessee this past weekend to photograph the wedding of Courtney Lawless & Chris Tinder. In keeping with their love for all things outdoors they planned a beautiful, intimate outdoor wedding at Norris Dam State Park. Weather was perfect, spring blooms were just starting and had a blast with the great new Mr. & Mrs. Tinder! Here are a selection of images from their wedding.
