Elizabeth & Andy's wedding this weekend was SUCH A BLAST! They are such a fun couple and just wonderful to be around. Several weeks before the wedding, Elizabeth & I went down to Waterfront Park to photograph her Bridal Portrait. I always encourage brides to make these portraits unique and meaningful to them. Since she's such a perfect "southern lady", I thought it was fitting that she selected this beautiful park with it's historic views of the harbor. I always like to work during MAGIC HOUR...that last hour of light before sunset. I had already created over a hundred images in different corners of the park, and was about to wrap it up as the day turned to dusk. But when we turned to leave, THERE in front of us was this GORGEOUS scene with the moon rising over Charleston Bay in the waining light of day. Immediately, we re-grouped, re-posed, and created a handful of TRULY unique images before the twilight slipped away! Now THAT'S what I call serendipity!!!

GORGEOUS picture! With the moon and sunset in the background...oh it is beautiful! Charleston is such a pretty place! :) I think it's awesome you titled it Serendipity--that is one of my favorite movies and a really neat word definition to ponder about!
Cool...nice to know there's another MOVIE LOVER out here! Cami and I saw "The Persuit of Happyness" recently...a truly EMPOWERING experience!
