Ashley | Bridal Portraits

Forgive me for another blog post fallen through the cracks. If you follow my Facebook page then you've seen these images before but I know there are some of you who steer clear of the Facebook world and I dont want to you miss out on Ashley all dolled up. As you can recall from her & Josh's wedding post she was a beautiful bride! She and I met up a month or so before her wedding at Somerset Plantation to have her bridal portraits made. Here are just a few of my favorites from our afternoon together.

Carsyn is a Big Sister!

The Marshall family became a family of 4 last week. Big Sister Carsyn welcomed her baby brother, Watson, with lots of sweet hugs & kisses!

Baby Luke

In the whirlwind of placing Easter Mini Session orders, editing a wedding and two newborn sessions I completely forgot that I hadn't completed Luke's blog post yet. I know his photos have been shown on Megan Lane Photography's Facebook page for some time now, but he definitely needs a blog post too. Seriously? Talk about cuteness!

This bundle of joy arrived a few weeks early. On Mom & Dad's vacation. Yep, you heard that right. Mom was telling me that she went to the doctor (I think) the day before they left for vacation in Myrtle Beach and the doctor said that he'd see her next week. Needless to say, Luke decided he wanted to see what vacation was all about and made his debut in Myrtle Beach!



I recently found some new goodies to use in my newborn sessions. Notice the green shaggy fabric and the bunny hat + diaper cover. I found them on etsy.com, my most favorite site these days! You can find all kinds of things there! I try not to frequent it often because I tend to spend way to much time (and sometimes money) there! :)

Ashley + Josh | Married {Part One}

Ashley + Josh were married March 26. They were set up on a blind date by a co-worker of Ashley and Josh's mother, who both work at the same place as Ashley. Josh's mom was talking about him and saying she wished he could find a nice girl, because he was graduating from ECU soon and Ashley's co-worker mentioned her. They called Ashley and asked if it was ok to give him her number. Ashley agreed and a year and 3 months after their first date of dinner and a movie, he proposed!

I met Ashley at her parents house first. Here's Ashley with her baby, Macy. I know she wished Macy could have been in her wedding. She's such a good Mommy to this little pup.



Then we headed over to the ceremony site, Somerset Place where Ashley got ready. Ashley's big sister, Amber stood as her maid of honor and was a big helper for her throughout the day. Amber just got engaged a couple of days ago! Congrats Amber!



I love this image of Ashley and her Mom in the background.



A few wedding details...



I love this sign that two precious kiddos carried right before the bride walked down the aisle.



Both of Ashley's parents walked her down to her soon-to-be hubby.



Exchanging of rings...



Ashley's grandfather blessed the couple with prayer during the ceremony. How awesome is that?



The kiss. :)





After lots of family shots I got to steal away Ashley + Josh before I let them go to the reception site. Could you tell it was windy and freezing? They definitely make it look like an 80 degree day!













Stay tuned for {Part Two}, the reception, coming soon.

More Mini Session Images

Monday I held another round of Spring Mini Sessions due to the overwhelming response I had after posting some of the other Mini Session photos that I had taken a few weeks ago. I had some more adorable kiddos to grace my camera, see what I mean...
