Sep. 19th Pepsi 10k Special Olympics Run

I shot this for the Special Olympics of Area 3, in Charlottesville, VA. The run was a lot of fun and I had a great time watching everyone's excitement and energy, either runners, staff, those cheering and passing out water, and the dog mascot from who-knows-where!

Cool-down stretches

Refueling on carbs!

That's it. Hope you are inspired to either run, take photos, or run while taking photos. Just don't try to grab a cup of water at the same time.

It was such a compliment when a good friend of ours asked us to photograph her wedding at the beautiful Maymont Gardens! The roses and lilies were in bloom, and the greenery made for some nice shots, along with a very beautiful bride. Laurie, we pray God's guidance and direction over your marriage and hope that you enjoy these photos!

Congratulations to the new bride and groom. What a privilege to take photos at the beautiful Maymont Gardens with you. The weather was perfect, flowers were in full bloom, the vows were sincere and the dancing was actually very good. Best of luck, and enjoy the photos! - Nate and Rachel
