Let the Tournament Begin

Day one at the Family Circle Cup has come and gone!  With lots of off-court player appearances by the top 8 seeds, I didn’t see a ton of action.  But here are a few shots from all over campus and throughout the first day…

The Family Circle Cup Begins

By Sunday most of the players competing in the Family Circle Cup had swooped into Charleston.  Saturday and Sunday had seen plenty of great tennis in the pre-tournament qualifying rounds.  But the MAIN event kicks off on Monday.  In celebrating all these elite women’s tennis players, the tournament puts on a great Player Party.  Held at Sacs Fifth Avenue downtown, it’s a chance for players, coaches, sponsors, and other VIP guests to just hang out, have dinner, and enjoy a good time!  Being an exclusive tournament event, it’s nice to be the ONLY media photographer there.  I don’t have to jostle for a position or vie for a player’s attention.  Plus everyone is relaxed, quick to smile, and primed for photo ops.  J  Here are a few from the party…

Josh & Ashley's "Destin" Destination Wedding

Ashley & Josh were married last weekend in a beautiful Destination Wedding on the pure white sands of Destin, Florida.  (Check out their Music Video at www.chrisandcami.com/blog.)  I went for a walk on the beach the morning of their wedding and the turquiose waters of the Gulf of Mexico stretching as far as the eye could see!  They had rented a gorgeous Spanish mansion across from the beach which was transformed into the perfect reception site.  Between the dramatic architecture of the mansion, the amazing scenery on the beach, and how beatiful Ashley looked in her flowing white wedding gown…the whole day was like visual candy to my camera!  Top that off with how genuine, friendly, and full of life all their friends and family were…well…let’s just say I had a BLAST!!!  J

 

I first met Ashley at Whitney & Ryan’s wedding on Seabrook Island last year.  So a HUGE “thank you” goes to Whitney for introducing me to Ashley!  Whitney was also a bridesmaid in Ashley’s wedding, so it was great to see her again and catch up.  (After watching the Music Video, head over to www.chrisandcami.zenfolio.com to see the rest of their Online Gallery.)

 

Ashley & Josh honeymooned in The Bahamas before returning home to Dallas, Georgia.  I tip my hat to Ashley as she is a 4th grade teacher there…I have the utmost respect for teachers and think they should get paid what lawyers get paid!  CONGRATULATIONS to Ashley & Josh…you guys ROCK!!!
