Happy Monday!  We enjoyed a fun and relaxing Thanksgiving holiday weekend with family, filled with games, food, and some holiday decorating with hearts full of gratitude and warmth!  Unfortunately, both of my little ones are under the weather, so while I’ve been comforting them with extra cuddles and a Happy Meal from their favorite place, I received an exciting email!  My amazing clients’ Spring wedding has been featured on the gorgeous wedding blog, The Black Tie Bride!   I am so thrilled that all of the hard work of the fabulous vendor team can be seen by so many!!!  Without further adieu, check out the feature here over on The Black Tie Bride!     Congratulations to E + J on wedding day that was truly lovely in every way – their sweet ceremony, their blush and gold details, their heartfelt and hilarious toasts, the sunshine that illuminated their love even more…it was just a phenomenal day!  And congratulations to the entire team of wedding professionals who added their creativity and expertise to every element of the day!  Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful couple’s best day ever, Black Tie Bride!

It’s the First Day of Spring, and after a morning of clouds and rain, I can see the sun shining outside my window!  I love it!  It’s been an exciting few days around here because on Friday, my new and improved website went LIVE!  Cue the confetti! Hooray!!! It feels so wonderful to have this project finally checked off of my to-do list!  Many, many thanks to Ryan of Second Street Creative for all of his hard work, attention to detail, and patience with me throughout this entire process!

Some of my favorite parts of the new website is that it contains my portfolio and blog all in one place!  Also, all posts have been sorted into fewer, easier to find categories, like Business, Engagement, Families + Kids, Maternity, Weddings, and more!  Click around and leave a note in the comments with any thoughts or feedback!  I’ve learned that this is going to be an ongoing work in progress, and I’m ok with that!

Another feature that I adore is the Praise page!  I am so thankful for my sweet clients who have taken the time to share their hearts and put into words what their experience with me has been like for them!  I have been moved to tears over and over by their comments, and I count my lucky stars to do what I love each day!  Because these amazing people have shared my name with their friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers, I continue to meet and work with even more wonderful people!

I cannot wait to share more on this new home of mine on the internet!  Thank you to all who have followed along, it has meant the world to me!  Cheers to this pretty new space and what’s in store for Stewart Imagery!   Happy Spring, indeed!

What a fun event!  I participated in the Vendor Open House at the gorgeous wedding and event venue, The Sycamore at Mallow Run!  They celebrated their grand opening last summer, and I was so excited to see it during the Vendor Open House late last fall!  It is such a stunning environment with wood beams, stone accent walls and fireplace, hardwood floors, large windows, outdoor patio areas, and more!  I cannot wait to photograph weddings and portraits in this amazing space set on their vineyard!  It was wonderful to meet so many brides and grooms and to hear about their upcoming weddings!  Here are a few photos I took during the event that showcase just a hint of how beautiful The Estate Room is for wedding ceremonies and receptions!  And as always, JP Parker Flowers provided the oh so pretty florals you’ll see below!  Love!  Thank you to Hannah and entire staff at The Sycamore at Mallow Run for hosting such a great event!

As you scroll down, you’ll see photos from Trena and Bob’s Mallow Run Winery wedding a few years ago!  They had the most romantic misty wedding day, with their First Look in the vineyard…I will never forget it!
