Danielle: Senior
She's one of those...a natural beauty. She makes "beautiful" seem effortless. Last fall I photographed her sister, Tiffany's wedding and so the connection was a natural one. She met me at our house and we enjoyed the evening walking around barefoot in the fields. Somehow she lucked out and didn't find the stinging nettle, unlike me. Yup, found it quickly and didn't forget it for the rest of the night! Danielle is homeschooled and is hoping to graduate a little early so she's already begun classes. She loves children, horses, farm life, and the kitchen. Believe it or not, she hasn't even been snatched up yet :) Oh, and a small (literally) fun fact is that she plans on soon owning a Mini Cooper S Supercharged. Look out, it's the quiet ones you have to be aware of!
Keep Sharing!
I know many of you are faithful followers of my blog and facebook page for Radiant Images and I love that you can follow my work and personal life there. It helps make me feel connected to all of you in some small way. I always enjoy hearing from you! This is just a plug to continue to spread the word about Radiant Images as you are already doing (and very well, I might add). I am amazed at the amount of word-of-mouth "advertising" you all do for me without even realizing it. I have booked several wedding, etc through my blog and FB just because you referred your friends, co workers, family members, etc. to my various sites. THANK YOU! Each of you have a significant role in the success of my business and I am so grateful for the very important part that you all play.
If you know of someone that you could introduce me to, feel free to send them my contact info or send them directly to my blog www.radiantimages.blogspot.com or to my Radiant Images Facebook Page where they can become a fan and follow me there. This allows everyone to get to know me (and my family) at a more personal level without necessarily meeting me in person. My goal is to book 10 weddings for 2011 (less than half of the 22 I have booked this year) and I currently have 6 booked. I want to significantly cut back with a new little one arriving this winter :) So tell your friends/family members not to wait too long if they are interested in having me photograph their wedding...4 slots remain for next year.
Often at a wedding, a guest will come up to me and say, "Hi, Regina!" I stare and think, "How does this person know my name, I've never met them?" "I follow your blog and FB page and love your work and your son is adorable..." This happens more than you could believe and I love that my little internet space and ramblings are touching the lives of so many people...some of whom I may never meet. That is such a rewarding feeling. God has expanded my tent and borders beyond what I could ever physically do on my own. It has been another incredible year and we're only half way through it. Thank you for allowing me into each one of your lives, even if for only one day. I will not forget any of you as you have all impacted my life in ways you may never know and I pray that you can say the same of me.

Sam & Alecia: Hitched
It may have been almost 110 degrees on the day they were married, but it didn't change the fact that they had planned a powerful wedding ceremony with a gorgeous outdoor reception at the Conewago Manor Inn. We almost melted but thanks be to God for lots of cold drinks and shade from the trees! Their day will be extra memorable in my book.
Sam & Alecia are one sweet couple. They met at Camp Hebron while on staff at summer camp and God began leading their hearts together in ways even they didn't recognize at first. Both of them have huge hearts for ministry and loving on people in the midst of their greatest needs. I was brought to tears many times throughout the day as I heard testimony after testimony of the acts of service that both individuals have poured out to friends and strangers in need. And the best part of it all is their adoration for each other. Sam busted into tears of joy as he watched his beloved bride, Alecia walking towards him holding onto her father where just minutes before, the groomsmen happily snapped their fingers as the bridesmaids "side-stepped" down the aisle to "Chapel of Love".
Some of my favorite details of the day included: footwashing during the ceremony (Eric and I did this on our wedding day and I absolutely love the symbolism), yellow socks and shoes, hats for the ladies, lip syncing to "Come Sail Away", candy bar, hilarious father/daughter dance, battery-operated mini fans for the bridesmaids, top hats, picture of the bride and groom to color...and, and, and. The creativity was endless. Sam & Alecia, may the LORD continue to bless your (yellow) socks off with His great love for you. Marriage is one gift that continues to get better every single day. I can testify to this truth! Honor, cherish, love...the best is yet to come.
