Hey guys! We hope you all are having a wonderful weekend and are enjoying the great weather! Vernice and I photographed the Owen family around their home in Spartanburg. The photo session was also to celebrate their eight week old addition, Lyric. Our new buddy has the coolest bedroom! We started the photo shoot there then made our way to the railroad tracks nearby. Many thanks to Chrissy, Josh, Lexi, and baby Lyric for letting us be a part of your afternoon. Cheers! [M]Josh is a very talented musician and as you can tell from the nursery, Lyric will most definitely follow his father’s footsteps!Their little man chillin’ in one of Josh’s guitar cases.Hang on, Lyric!Lexi loves her baby brother.A special Happy Birthday to Josh!

Our Wonderful Grandparents

Matthew and Vernice — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 14:40:33 +0000

Our goals with each session are typically the same. We want to have as much fun as possible while capturing something special both for the individual/couple as well as their family. With this photo shoot, we are the family which makes it that more special for us. We love every opportunity we have with these two fine folks. Talk began back in March concerning when we would have their next photo session. Well, we got busy and time passed as it always does and before we knew it, it was August. We knew this was something important to us, so we picked a date and sure enough it rained each date we picked for about 3 weeks, until finally we found a beautiful evening.

As Vernice and I think about where we want to be 50 and 60 years down the road, we always think about Papa and Mema and their love for one another. Vernice and I love our youth and cherish where we are currently as a married couple, but it is exciting to think about being parents and grandparents one day. When we get to that point, we know who we want to be like, and that sweet couple is our grandparents. Papa and Mema are wonderful grandparents and have such a positive influence in our lives.

Here are a few of our favorites from our latest session with Papa and Mema. Cheers.[M]

They have such a scenic gazebo.

Papa looked at us while we were taking these pictures and said, “You sure do have a beautiful grandmother.” We definitely concur.

The light was incredible that evening.

Papa’s grandfather was born in this house in 1862.

Love this shot.

High School Sweethearts in San Fran

Matthew and Vernice — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 01:59:55 +0000

As you all may know, Matthew and I traveled to San Francisco in July for our summer vacation. We booked a session with the wonderful Kate Harrison while on our trip. Here are our favorites … although, it was truly tough not to post every single picture on here!

Kate, thank you so much for everything! You have such a kind heart and uplifting spirit which are exemplified in your craft. We are big fans of your photography, but more so your passion to capture the good stuff. Until we meet again, old friend … cheers! [V]

Hugs on one of San Fran’s famous cable cars.

Yup! My husband’s a natural model!

Our absolute favorite! We’ve already ordered a 16 x 20 enlargement to display in our office at home.

If you’re ever in the Bay Area and are looking for a photographer, Matthew and I highly recommend Kate Harrison. She’s amazing!

Our Favorite Little Guy, Brenson

Matthew and Vernice — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 20:20:42 +0000

So, our nephew doesn’t need an introduction at this point … but, I can’t help it. HE IS THE SWEETEST, MOST ADORABLE BABY BOY IN THE WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD! Brenson’s growing up so fast. Before we know it, he’ll be saying ‘Uncle Kerm and Aunt Vern’ … and possibly asking how we got those names.

Here are our favorites from his 6 month photo shoot at Wofford College.

Let me warn you. He’s cute. [V]

Brenson’s inquisitive look.

Kisses from Daddy. I love this photograph Matthew snapped of Brian and Brenson.

Cuteness overload! He’s so precious! … and pretty much all the adjectives pertaining to being adorable!

The lovely Yates family.

We love y’all! [Brenson: GO TIGERS! Remember that, buddy!]

Kristen and Jason Engaged

Matthew and Vernice — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 21:29:23 +0000

We photographed Kristen and Jason’s engagement portraits a few weeks ago in downtown Rock Hill,SC. This was our first time seeing them since our initial wedding consultation, but it felt like we had known them for many years. We were also really excited about photographing them in such a beautiful little town.

Vernice and I are looking forward to their wedding day in October which they planned around the Clemson football schedule. Thanks, guys! [M]I love this shot Vernice took of them.We love this image!We have to post a kissing shot.They are great together!Kristen and Jason, we can’t wait to see you guys soon. Cheers. [M]

San Francisco, baby!

Matthew and Vernice — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 00:51:26 +0000

Matthew and I have been wanting to go to San Francisco since we’ve been together. So, ten years later … we went! It was an amazing trip and we have already decided we are definitely visiting this great city again. Here are some highlights of our summer vacation. We hope you enjoy!

We stayed at the Westin St. Francis in Union Square. The city had a bunch of artwork around the plaza and we found this really cool heart. It was the first picture Matthew took and naturally, I’m in love with it.

We loved Pier 39 at Fisherman’s Wharf! There was so much to do there and had the best atmosphere.

Our friend, Fernando. Yup. I name ALL animals we see. And not just on vacation … ask my husband about it.

What’s a trip to San Fran without visiting The Rock?! We took a bunch of pictures at Alcatraz … this is my favorite that Matthew snapped during our tour.

I wish we could have spent more time in Chinatown … perhaps next time. Of course, I have no idea what this sign reads. Hopefully nothing too offensive.

The Golden Gate Bridge: beautiful, immaculate … and apparently, my biggest fear. Matthew and I walked the 1.6 miles across this amazing bridge, and I was terrified almost the whole entire time! It wasn’t until about three steps from getting to the other side that I let go of my fear of heights.

I’m so happy I made it out ALIVE!

My handsome husband, cool as a cucumber. He could have stayed up there for several more hours!

This is the theatre where we saw the Broadway show, ‘Wicked.’ Amazing. We highly recommend seeing it.

After some yummy sushi for lunch, Matthew and I sat curbside and watched the cable cars go up and down the street.

On our last day, we had several hours before our shuttle picked us up to head to the airport. So, we had a mini photo shoot around Union Square.

Any model agencies checking out our blog, I am Matthew’s official manager. I get 80% …

Windy.

We found another heart sculpture.

Our trip to San Francisco was a blast! Matthew and I could have definitely stayed longer. On a side note, we met up with an amazing photographer to capture a fun time in our lives. Many thanks to Kate Harrison … we can’t wait to see the end results!

Make sure to visit the blog again soon. We will be updating with some good good stuff!

Much love from the Hammetts! [V]
