At the Beach Again!

This wedding was fantastic!

The couple was great, the weather fantastic, and everything was perfect. I met Tina and Skip the day that we shot their engagement session and we hit it off immediately. They were a joy, a true joy to photograph and it was a real pleasure to meet all of their friends and family.

Thank for letting me be part of your day and making me part of your life. It is always a treat when my "clients" become my friends.

Enjoy...

Again, I am so lucky to be able to photograph people like Tina and Skip

Hilton Head, SC

I had an opportunity to go to Hilton Head and shoot one of the coolest couples. OK, all of my couples totally rock but these two were fantastic. I met Kim and Scott and we hit it off right away. The wedding was gorgeous and they were up at 7:00 AM the next morning to go play in the Ocean.

Good stuff...

And, the play button is the triangle on the lower left portion of the show.

Snowballs are melting!

You know how it is when you get really busy, get behind, and can't catch up? It is like a giant snowball that keeps getting bigger and bigger.

Well...it turns out that the "Snowballs from HELL" are beginning to melt!

Here is a slideshow that I just put together. I hope you enjoy it.

Lisa and Dan, your wedding was fantastic. Thank you for having such a great day. Oh, and thanks for being patient as well!

Press the play button (white triangle on the lower left) and make sure your speakers are on.


Enjoy.

Whatever...!

So, I was playing with the layout of my blog and changed it to this.

Yeah, I don't like it either. So, there is a NEW BLOG just around the corner. This one will stay up but I am thinking of changing things altogether.

I will keep you posted with the appropriate links and such!

Annie and Mark...

Had a great wedding in Charlotte and their reception was at the Mint Museum of Craft and Design.
It was catered by La Tea Da's and I have to say they did a great job. It was a great time.

Congratulations to the newly married couple.

Thank you for letting me be part of your special day.

The slideshow for Annie and Mark is available here

Wedding from 1973...(Practically)

I photographed Sarah and Stephen's wedding about 100 years ago and had not gotten their slideshow up and running. Thanks for hangin' in their you two.

Nonetheless, the slideshow will be up today so that the whole world can see what a fun couple they are and what an awesome wedding they had.

Here is one from the mix!



AND...

Here is the slideshow! What a great wedding. Thank you so much for allowing me to be part of your very special day. Hugs to you both!

(Now I have to call them and tell them that it is up and running) BTW, I fell out of a tree today hanging a hammock chair. Good times. I will post a photo or so tomorrow. Don't worry Cindy, I didn't break anything. (Cindy and Noah are getting married on Saturday and she threatened me if I got hurt before their wedding!)

And...special thanks to Warren McCormack for the help that day. Great job!

I'm not sure...

...how this happened. All I know is that I was out at The Saratoga Springs shooting a wedding with Ron and Vanessa Beaver of Universal Photo-Cam and the next thing I know, this happens. This guy was some random guest at the wedding but he turned out to be super cool. I am just glad that we were both able to remove the corks!



Kick-ass cork photo compliments of Ron Beaver!

Talk about LAZY!

I have been such a lazy butt lately and I think I have decided to blame it on the heat. Of course, that doesn't do too much good considering I was in Key West all last week. I can assure you that I was working every single day I was there but I was internet limited (to say the least). That set me back a bit.

One of the things I was going to upload was a slide-show from Carron and Terry. Yet another totally cool couple. Nonetheless, here ya go and stay coooooool!

Press the play button (on the left!) and crank up the speakers!

UPDATE!

Well...

Here is the update. I was able to get the files that I need from my hard drive crash. It took a while but I was able to recover the images that I needed and Ryan is a happy camper.

Here is one of the images. It is straight out of the camera and I think it looks awesome. The guys will surely love it and I know Mary will.

Stay tuned for two new wedding slideshows---Lindsey and Bill, and Carron and Terry. Those will be up and running in the next few days.

Here is a picture of "The Guys!"

Still no word...

On my crashed hard drive. This has been a real pain but what are ya gonna do? Otherwise, things are moving right along.

AND...

The new website is up and running. The address is the same http://brucemayhill.com/ but there is a whole new look. It is not nearly finished but functional nonetheless.

More coming very soon...

Happy 4th!

A Link to the gallery of Lindsey and Bill

Hola!

Here is the gallery for Lindsey and Bill. They had a fantastic wedding and a slideshow will be up soon. It was a real pleasure to photograph their day.

Well, I am back in town and working on the details of my recent hard-drive crash. Holy Crap what a mess that is. It is all getting sorted out and hopefully, the good computer Dr. will be able to salvage some info.

Nonetheless...

Here is the link for MARY AND RYAN!

Here's one...

This is from the other day and I thought I would throw it online real quick. I am finishing up with Mary and Ryan as well as Lindsey and Bill so those will be up and running shortly.

I hope you like this image. When I told Tina and Skip that I was going to photograph them in front of a crappy old barn with a martini in their hand, they were both totally up for it. I know they were skeptical at first, I know I would have been.

Good times...

(Click on the image to make it larger. Click on it again to make it ever larger than that. Now go make a martini and shake it!)

Another cool couple...

Holy crap!

I am so honored to be able to photograph the coolest couples on the planet. Last night I shot an engagement session with Tina and Skip and we had a fantastic time. Of course, when I got home I had to pull 5 or 6 thorns out of my leg since I seem to find it necessary to stand in a thicket in order to get my shot. I am getting really spoiled with my couples. If you are cool couple or know of a cool couple, feel free to call.

Nonetheless, we had a great time. I fell on my ass once, taught Skip how to use my camera, had a quick karate lesson (good job Tina!), and got photos of Tina doing things that you will never, ever see on this blog. (Cash, check or money orders accepted!)

Photos of their engagement session will be posted soon.

Other stuff...

Mary and Ryan's gallery will be posted tonight or tomorrow.
Lindsey and Bill's will be posted next week.
I am off to Vegas next week so don't bother me!

kisses...

Mary and Ryan

Here ya go gang!

I have to say that this was one awesome engagement session and wedding. I really had a fantastic time with everyone and would love to hear your thoughts on the slideshow.

Mary and Ryan, thank you for allowing me to be part of your day.

All the best to you both,

Bruce

Lindsey and Bill Engagement Session

Last week I got a chance to hang out with Lindsey and Bill and shoot some photos for them. We ran around Concord for a bit and they were great sports and up for anything. The weather was great and they were both lookin' gooooood!

(Make sure to press the play button on the lower left)

Mary and Ryan

Sooooooooooo,

last night was fantastic. Mary and Ryan got married last night and it was an amazingly fun time. It was a bit of a whirl-wind as well. They got in town on Wednesday, ran around on Thursday, Thursday night we shot their (awesome!) engagement session in uptown Charlotte and then the wedding was on Saturday at The Palisades Country Club. Needless to say, the past few days were very busy.

The wedding was gorgeous. Mary was stunning and Ryan was looking pretty hot too! (If you scroll back a few entries, you can see the photos that we shot the day we met.)

I had a great time meeting everyone and was honored to be part of the day. More photos will be posted soon.

Congratulations to you both!

Bruce





(If you go here, you can see where this was shot. They are under the arch in the center and I was on top of the arch to the left!) BTW, The Palisades Country Club did an awesome job!

Ice Cream Thief...

Sooooooooooo,

yesterday I had a chance (finally) to get out and shoot some engagement photos of Lindsey and Bill. What a great couple! We ran all around the sprawling metropolis of Concord. In the gardens, up the alley, behind a dumpster in a field and a brief stop for ice cream. Hey, being a super model is tough business!

So, we are hangin' out when Bill gets a chance to contemplate his flavor choice. He chose strawberry but I think he really wanted vanilla. He actually paid me to distract her so that he could get lick (or six!).

There were a ton of great photos and I will post a few of them shortly but I really liked this one. Fun stuff, fun photo, very fun couple!

Can't wait for the wedding but I am NOT climbing any embankments or trailblazing through the world's largest thicket bush again!

My Dogs are Nuts! (well, nuts and chews at least)

So, it was recently my wife's birthday and one of her sisters sent her a box of See's Candy. The Nuts and Chews are her favorite. Well, before she had a chance to try them, somebody (?) decided that they should rip open the box and enjoy themselves. I swear, when I got home they were all sitting around smoking a cigarette.

I know, chocalate is really bad for dogs but the amount of chocolate to dog weight makes it ok.

Anyway...here is a little slideshow for ya! (Speakers on please)



More later...

Scooter!

How do you not love a little dog like this?! This is Scooter and he belongs to my neighbors acroos the street. This little beast is the mascot of their insurance office and with him running around I am not sure how they are able to get any work done.

Nonetheless...cute dog, good folks!

Engagement Session

So, here are is a little collage from Angela and Stefon's engagement session. We had a great time and I am sure that their wedding is going to be a lot of fun. Can't wait!

Snow Day!

So, we got a little dusting of snow the other day and I would like to thank the Charlotte-Mecklenberg school system for giving my wife the day off.

So, I decided to shoot a photo or two even though it was a bit cold out. Of course today there is no more snow and we are expecting a high of 58!

Yesterday's E-Session

I can't wait for Angela and Steffon's wedding! We did their engagement session yesterday and had a great time. A little running around the city never hurt anybody. Nonetheless, I will post some photos soon. I will try to get it done today but my "honey-do" list is a little large today.

Soooo...I will get them posted A.SA.P.

As always, it is now time for more coffee. Cheers.
