He Lives!

Happy Easter! (even if it is two days late)This Easter was a little different than past Easters. Not only because it was my first Easter waking up not in my parents house, being married now and all :0)But it also was a little different because our church generally has a huge Passover celebration that begins with months of preparation. From dance to drama to choir and orchestra, our church invests a tremendous amount of energy and prayer into the development of that celebration event. This year, our church took a different direction in our community and instead we focused on God of the City. Instead of our typical Passover celebration event, we had a smaller presentation on Good Friday. Sadly I didnt get to be apart of that because of the wedding we booked but they made DVDs and I'm excited to see it! Easter Sunday arrived and I wasnt in the best of moods due to some insecurities with my Easter dress (all you females out there totally understand the waking up and suddenly feeling insecure whereas you were completely confident in yourself the day before). Church began with numerous songs that just declared Christ's glory in the ressurection. Three songs that Sunday God chose to reveal to me parts of His glorious nature. I'm not generally one to cry but I was a blubbering mess on Sunday. Each song showed more and more of who He is throughout the scripture, throughout history, throughout my life. More and more I saw that He is Worthy! It was truly an amazing service. After the service, I endure the typical "family Easter photos" from Andrew's family. I'd much rather be behind the camera the majority of the time...and standing next to a completely decked out marine made me feel reeeeeeally dwarf-like. :0) Andrew's sister was also in town with her husband and little girl and we all had an amazing Easter lunch at Andrew's parents along with all the siblings and my parents. It was just a nice time to relax an eat way too much food together.

So I've got a TON of posts coming up. I'm trying to get caught up this week. Sadly I dont feel like I'm getting any further and I'm losing sleep. Gotta fix that soon with a nice nap on the beach :0)

Coming up (hopefully tomorrow) will be some posts from our wedding at the Embassy Suites and a sneak peak from the wedding we had on Good Friday. Also I'll have some pictures that I took for my stylist friend of mine for her portfolio.

Murphy Family

Alrighty - so, my hope to get our newest photos all posted before our trip this weekend sorta happened. Techincally I'm posting this from the hotel in South Carolina. Surprisingly, Andrew and I got a lot done while driving the 9 hours up here (horrid, horrid weather!) Sadly, I wont get to post pictures from our wedding at the Embassy Suites on the 21st but I did get to post the pictures from our family shoot with the Murphy's.

The Murphy's met up with us at Lincolns Park in Niceville. It's not my most favorite place to shoot but with the playground, we knew the kids would be comfortable. After some coaxing for a few smiles, we got some great shots! And Oh My Goodness these kids have the most amazingly blue eyes! I dont think I've ever encountered blue eyes with a white starburst effect! This was a great family to work with and we look forward to being able to capture the moments of their beautiful little kids as they grow up! So enjoy!



These two were so cute! It took them about 5 minutes to stop giggling after they smooched!
I think this is my favorite picture out of the bunch...I think - there are so many to chose from!
Okay so I couldnt decide on which of these I like so I posted both. This little girl had the most amazing eyes!

Things are Coming!

Hi Everyone!

I just wanted to let you all know that some updates are on their way! New photos on the website are coming, a new Blog layout, new photos of us, and as much more as we can cram in! We've been crazy busy these past two weeks with a wedding at the Embassy Suites Destin - Miramar Beach and a family session at Lincoln Park. And, to top it off, my brother in law is graduating from the Marine Corps. this weekend. So there's lots of craziness going on in our house right now. You should see it, there are computers, cameras, wires, and mad chaos in our "office" right now. Then again, maybe you shouldnt see it!

It's been awhile since I've given anything away...okay maybe not awhile, but I love taking pictures and we're a little slow next month, so! The third person to send me an email with the title "You Rock" and the body of the email must have your contact information and tell us what your favorite photo is we've taken so far! That lucky third person will get a free session of their choice. Just a reminder for those new to the blog, our free sessions consist of one photographer, up to two hours of shoot time, and some AMAZING photos. Your photos will be available for purchase on a high-res DVD with copyright release for $30.00. Start up your emails and send them to cassie@olimbphotography.com.

Our next blog will be chalked full of images from our recent wedding and family session and hopefully I can get that posted before we go out of town. So, here's to the "coming soon!" Have a great week!!

Aaaaand Again

So sorry guys - it seems like our last handful of posts have been about maintenence issues! Again, our site isnt working right. I promise this will all be worth it in the end! Our site will be able to hold so many more photos and our email will run faster. So again, this means our email isnt working for the time being.

Please, please stick with us, our server gnomes are doing the best they can to fix everything as quickly as possible! And I promise, the next post will have pictures and I'll give Cassie back the blog too - I know you all enjoy her posts far more than mine!
