The summer of endless traveling continues. I promise that I have actually gone to work a few times since <a href="http://colorsnotyetinvented.blogspot.com/2014/08/vacation-3-australia.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">my last post</span></a>, but--you guessed it--I want to share some photos from summer vacation #4! This trip was not to the other side of the world; it was my home state of Kentucky! The stars really aligned for this one. My husband had only been to Kentucky when it was cold and dreary, and I had been trying to find an opportunity to show him how beautiful it is when the weather is nice. He's also become a bit of a bourbon enthusiast over the past couple of years (thanks in part to my dad), so he had been wanting to visit some of the distilleries on the <a href="http://kybourbontrail.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Kentucky Bourbon Trail</span></a>. When I found out a dear friend of our family was getting married in my hometown in the summertime, I new this was the perfect time to plan a Kentucky trip! And it also happened to coincide with my (30th!) birthday. Perfection!</div>

My parents coordinated a two-day trek through the bluegrass for the four of us, complete with visits to FIVE bourbon distilleries. We started big, with the home of Alex's favorite bourbon, Woodford Reserve. This one turned out to be our favorite distillery, too. It was classy and beautiful.</div>

Our tour was incredibly informative. We learned about the entire process of making bourbon and got to see--and smell! Oh, the wonderful smells!--each step for ourselves. </div>

After lunch, it was time for distillery #2, Buffalo Trace. This tour was not our favorite, but we made some hilarious memories that are sure to be running jokes for years to come. (You'll always love Becky the middle school teacher, right Mom? ;))</div>

There were some beautiful grounds at Buffalo Trace, though. I had visions of photographing a bride and groom on this bridge amidst all the amazing gardens. Doesn't it almost look like Claude Monet's water lilies should be under it? Beautiful. </div>

That evening, we celebrated my birthday (did I mention I'm 30?!) with a delicious dinner and a musical. The Steven Foster Story was very well done and so appropriate for our thoroughly Kentuckian trip. The next day, it was time for more bourbon! Our third distillery tour was at Barton, the makers of 1792 bourbon. We had a great tour guide and tasting there, and the massive bottling facility was especially fascinating.</div>

Our tour here was quite educational and included a lot of interesting history about the family. I especially enjoyed learning about the role of Mrs. Margie Samuels, who gave the brand its name and designed the bottle, including the iconic red wax--which we got to see being added to each bottle by hand on the assembly line!</div>

You know you live a privileged life when you're annoyed by the fact that you let your <i>fourth</i> summer vacation come and go before managing to blog about your <i>third</i> vacation. Ha! I am so thankful for the crazy opportunities I've had to travel the world this summer. When Alex told me he would be doing presentations at a conference in <i>Australia</i>, I was pretty insistent about tagging along.

One thing that surprised me was the plethora of pay phones all over town. I was also amused by Hungry Jack's. Eventually I learned that it is indeed the same thing as Burger King, but the name Burger King was trademarked in Australia already, so they had to change it. Ha!</div>

I can't believe it's almost August! This summer has been crazy. We've been doing a lot more traveling than usual, and it's been so fun! One of the perks of being self-employed is that I can (sometimes, anyway) take time off work to go on my husband's business trips with him. And they're usually in interesting places! In June, we went to Puerto Rico! We stayed in the heart of Old San Juan, and I loved it. </div>

Lucy and Tom chose not to see each other before the ceremony. I'm usually a big proponent of a "first look," but I must say that sticking to tradition made for some fun suspense in these moments right before the worship service began. I felt like I was in on a juicy secret! </div>

When I arrived to photograph Tricia and Clayton's May 17th wedding in Fairhope, one of the first things I heard was the bride asking, "Did you see this beautiful day the Lord made for us?" It made me smile, and it was so, so true. <a href="http://www.emmasbayhouse.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Emma's Bay House</span></a> provided the charming setting for these nuptials, but it was the view of God's creation every which way that was truly magnificent. </div>

When I first met Tricia and her sweet mom a few months ago, they were eager to tell me about the dress, which had been worn by Tricia's mom, her aunt, <i>and</i> her late maternal grandmother. How amazing is that?! What a beautiful way to feel connected to their family legacy. </div>

Earlier, I had overheard one of Tricia's cousins explaining to her paternal grandmother (Nonny, I believe) that the wedding was outside, not in a church. Nonny did not miss a beat before offering a correction: this spot right here <i>is</i> a church. And it sure was! There may not have been a steeple or an altar, but Tricia and Clayton were united in matrimony on <i>holy ground.</i></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I am so excited about what I have to share today! I've been anticipating my first wedding photography experience for a few months now, and I must admit that there was a lot of anxiety involved. No more! Gretchen and Stuart's wedding was the PERFECT first wedding for me. It was some of the most fun I've had in a long time, and I feel so honored that I got to be the one to document this wonderful event. I should have known it would be a relaxed and down-to-earth occasion--after all, it took place at <a href="http://shaggys.biz/locations/shaggys-biloxi-beach/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Shaggy's</span></a>! What better place could there be for a chill, beachy celebration?!</span></div>

Its location right next to the lovely <a href="http://www.sbbiloxihotel.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">South Beach Hotel</span> </a>was perfect, too. Gretchen and Stuart's guests traveled from near and far (Scotland!) for their wedding, and I'm sure they were not disappointed by the accommodations. </div>

I had so much fun playing with all the accessories when I got to the bride's suite--especially her fabulous "something blue" shoes! (Don't worry: my lovely assistant/husband Alex was standing by to make sure I didn't drop one of them off the balcony into the pool.)</div>

It's rare for wedding ceremonies to be this meaningful. Amid the graceful officiating of Jean from <a href="http://www.aftertheproposal.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">After the Proposal</span></a>, both families exchanged blessings, and Gretchen and Stuart shared beautifully-written personal vows. They drank from a common quaich (a fancy Scottish cup) to symbolize sharing the "cup of life" for the rest of their lives, and the best man tied a tartan around their hands to symbolize their unity.</div>

I think I'm officially in love with engagement sessions. I had the pleasure of photographing Hannah and Anthony last weekend in beautiful Pass Christian. I had a pretty good feeling when I spotted this huge wisteria bush in full bloom, and it only got better when this gorgeous couple arrived in their perfectly coordinated blue/aqua ensemble. Did they read my mind? Do they know my love for cool colors? It was almost as if we'd carefully planned a way to perfectly match <a href="http://uninventedcolorsphotography.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">my logo</span></a><span style="color: #6aa84f;"> </span>with this photo.

First, there was the very unexpected wintry weather! I never thought I'd get a "snow day" while living on the Gulf Coast, but we ended up with three days off work because of the ice that enveloped us a couple of weeks ago! It was a fun sight to behold.<br />

Unfortunately, the crazy weather also foiled my husband's plans to travel to San Antonio for a presentation at a conference for his work. I had planned to meet him on the last day of the conference so that we could spend the weekend with our friends the Cokes (<a href="http://colorsnotyetinvented.blogspot.com/2013/06/family-portraits.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e69138;">remember them?</span></a>), but I ended up going without him. It was a bummer, but I still made the best of my first-ever trip to Texas!<br />

I have so much catching up to do! For now, let's start with a run-down of all the new photos in <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/UninventedColors?ref=si_shop" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e69138;">my shop</span></a>--there are lots! Most of them were taken with the awesome 50mm lens I got for Christmas (thanks, Alex!) In fact, this was one of the very first pictures I took with it on Christmas morning. A wide aperture, manual focus, and Christmas lights created this wonderful <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/177485559/bokeh-square-fine-art-photograph-print?ref=shop_home_active_23" target="_blank"><span style="color: #f1c232;">abstract bokeh beauty</span></a>.</div>

Speaking of wonderful new things, Alex and I took advantage of a fabulous end-of-year furniture sale in New Orleans, so naturally I took some pictures on our walk to lunch after our shopping day. We were way too hungry to stand in the crazy-long line for <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/177596173/felixs-square-fine-art-photograph-print?ref=shop_home_active_20" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Felix</span></a>'s, but I took a picture of the sign anyway. :)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Then there was a wonderful solitary walk around the neighborhood (with my new lens, of course). I cut my leg tripping over some kind of thorny vine on my way to this field of weeds (or as I prefer to say, <i><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/177606158/winter-wildflowers-fine-art-photograph?ref=shop_home_active_19" target="_blank"><span style="color: #f1c232;">wildflowers</span></a></i>), but it was worth it. Can you tell how obsessed I am with my new <i>f</i>1.8 capability? Shallow depth of field makes everything look so dreamy, don't you think?</div>

Then.... it got cold. Too cold for leisurely outdoor photography fun. So I resorted to re-visiting old shots that hadn't been edited or listed but deserved to be. My dreams of warmer weather led me to <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/177089681/beach-umbrella-square-fine-art?ref=shop_home_active_3" target="_blank"><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">this photo of an umbrella</span></a> at the beach last summer on the Outer Banks. </div>

This year, for Christmas, I gave each of my grandmothers (and my grandmother-in-law) a stack of photos of Alex and me throughout the year. They were a hit! A couple of days later, while I was still in Kentucky, I got a message from Blake, asking if I could capture some portraits of her children while her niece, Emily, was in town... as a surprise for grandmother! How perfect! Happily, I got back to the Gulf Coast just in time to make it happen. I've always had a soft spot for Morgan, the adorable and sweet 3rd grader who I've taught in Sunday School, but it turns out that the rest of the Brown family is loads of fun, too! We had a great time downtown and at the <span style="color: #6aa84f;"><a href="http://www.nps.gov/guis/index.htm" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Gulf Islands National Seashore Park</span></a> </span>documenting this sweet family togetherness. </div>

I am so deeply thankful for my customers. Their (your!) patronage fuels my creativity, which brings so much joy to my life. Most people think Etsy (or even photography in general) is a hobby for me, but it is so, so much more. Because my work as a therapist is so often abstract and ambiguous, I need something visual and tangible to cling to sometimes. It brings me stability, and clarity, and peace, and hope. When I capture a lovely image, I am reminded that God's creation is beautiful and sacred. And since the crowning glory of His creation is humankind, then my therapy clients, regardless (or because?) of their "issues," are beautiful and sacred, too. These reminders keep me inspired to connect to them--to explore the depths of their minds and hearts and to work through all the messy stuff that has to be worked through to bring healing. Because it's worth it, because it's sacred, which makes it beautiful.<br />
<br />
It's hard to put this into words, so no worries if this makes no sense to you. But know this: if you've bought a print from my Etsy shop, or hired me to shoot portraits of your family, or even clicked "like" on <span style="color: #6aa84f;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/UninventedColorsPhotography" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Facebook</span></a> </span>or <a href="http://instagram.com/uninventedcolors" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Instagram</span></a> or <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/saraamesmontague/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Flickr,</span></a> then you have not only helped me to become better artist, but a better therapist. Which is to say, a better person.<br />
<br />
From the bottom of my Christian-photographer-therapist heart, thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.<br />
<br />
And if you wouldn't mind, please keep it up in 2014. :)<br />
<br />
Happy New Year!<br />

It has been such a pleasure getting to know Lucy & Tom. Not long ago, at church, Lucy started asking me questions about wedding planning because she was expecting a proposal. (After a whispered squeal of delight, I, of course, referred her to my husband, who did all the real work of planning our wedding. Lucky me, I know.) Fast forward a few short months and a few after-church lunch conversations, and now I'm their wedding photographer! It is thrilling to play this role in their love story. Lucy (a teacher) and Tom (a salesman) are both so kind, down-to-earth, and charming in the way that only true Southerns can be. They love the Lord, their families, and their work. And<i> I</i> love watching the way they love <i>each other. </i>Especially through my viewfinder on this perfectly overcast Sunday. Their gorgeous engagement shoot is probably my favorite session to date. I'm sure you can see why. :)</div>

It was a special treat to create yet another set of portraits for them a couple of weeks ago. Nathanael is now almost two and has a little sister on the way!<br />

I love Christmas as much as the next guy, but... it's mid-November! Which is not Christmastime, or even Advent, or even Winter. In case, like the radio station, you're confused about what season it is, I'm offering this very important public service announcement: IT'S FALL! In case you need a visual aid, here are a few of the photos I took on a recent trip to the North Georgia mountains.<br />

It was a beautiful, playful, refreshing trip. My husband and I took a scenic train ride, sampled local wine, roasted s'mores, and even made an apple pie with the apples we picked ourselves! It was wonderful <i>fall</i> fun.Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02904864711817715472noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344258495993060809.post-29138252687580146492013-11-11T23:15:00.000-05:002013-11-11T23:15:55.386-05:00"Sunlight on the Bayou" on the Etsy front page! This summer, my friend <a href="http://larississippi.wordpress.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #76a5af;">Larissa</span></a> invited me to an event celebrating <a href="http://www.nanpa.org/nature_photography_day.php" target="_blank"><span style="color: #76a5af;">Nature Photography Day</span></a> (which I didn't know was a thing) at the <a href="http://grandbaynerr.org/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve</span></a>. We had so much fun exploring! A few of my photos from that day are in <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/UninventedColors?ref=si_shop" target="_blank"><span style="color: #76a5af;">my Etsy shop</span></a>, and I especially love this one of the sunlight reflecting on the bayou water. Don't those flecks of light look like sparkling diamonds? Or stars? (Which reminds me of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Drops-Like-Stars-Creativity-Suffering/dp/0062197282/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1384228732&sr=8-1&keywords=drops+like+stars" target="_blank"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #76a5af;">t</span></span><span style="color: #76a5af;">his fabulous book</span></a> you should read, but I digress.) Imagine my delight when I saw this photo on the front page of <a href="https://www.etsy.com/?ref=si_home" target="_blank"><span style="color: #76a5af;">Etsy</span> </a>today!<br />

I've been daydreaming about wedding photography for ages now, and I finally gathered the courage to contact my favorite wedding photographer, <a href="http://wendywilsonphoto.com/#" target="_blank"><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Wendy Wilson Photography</span></a>, to ask for help getting started. Boy, did she deliver! I was thrilled to join Wendy (and her fabulous second-shooter, <span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><a href="http://www.kathleenclipper.com/blog/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Kathleen Clipper</span></a>)</span> for Kate and Matt's gorgeous October wedding at the <a href="http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/ptlal-grand-hotel-marriott-resort-golf-club-and-spa/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Grand Hotel</span></a> in Point Clear, Alabama. It was incredibly valuable hands-on experience, not to mention a lot of fun! Since I was the 3rd photographer, I was pretty focused on staying out of the way, but I still managed to get some great shots of details and guests (and a few of the bride.) See for yourself!<br />

I am so thankful that Wendy gave me the opportunity to get my feet wet. And I'm pretty pleased with my work. Not bad for a wedding photography virgin, right? Good thing, because I've already booked two weddings for Spring 2014! <strike>Yikes! </strike>Hooray! ;)Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02904864711817715472noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344258495993060809.post-11805143628211375762013-10-06T17:17:00.001-04:002013-10-06T17:18:10.368-04:00New logo by OTF DesignsMost of you know that I officially launched a website for my portrait work about a month ago. I was pretty happy with the design, but one thing was missing: a logo! I was thrilled when Kate form <a href="http://otfdesigns.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">OTF Designs</span></a> chose me for a FREE logo design! They say "you get what you pay for," but that was not the case with Kate! I had a hard time knowing exactly what I wanted, but Kate was patient and understanding throughout the entire process. She listened to all my ideas, did lots of revisions, and ultimately designed a logo that I am thrilled to use on <a href="http://uninventedcolorsphotography.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">my website</span></a>. <br />

This lovely family had to reschedule several times due to rain, but it was so worth the wait! Jenni and Jake's son, Jonah (don't you love the triple J?) is about to turn 1, and they wanted to celebrate his first year of life with some beautiful portraits. We met at the Little Children's Park in Ocean Springs, and I had tons to fun playing with Jonah--and his parents! We're all pretty pleased with results. :)<br />
