Regent University Homecoming

Last Friday Regent University celebrated their homecoming with the crowning of Intramural Football Champs, the King and Queen, and games. It was a day I was glad to not be shooting a wedding as it rained most of the event… I love shooting in the rain, but only for the right situations… and a football game (not wedding) is one of them.

Here’s a few from the day. It was warm and rainy at the event, but has finally turned to fall here. 7 months till the wet suits can be put away again!

Enjoy!

Dana’s Bridal

Let me tell you, I am getting so excited for Dana’s upcoming wedding! I first met Dana during another clients wedding and have really enjoyed working with her. Dana came out with her mom and maid of honor (and her dog) to Regent University for her Bridal Portraits. I always love shooting at Regent, and I do it a LOT!

Dana gave me permission to post her bridals as we don’t think the husband to be has any idea how to access the blog ;-)

Dana, your dress is amazing and worth all the hassle you went through for it! I had a blast shooting with you and can’t wait to show you the rest of your pictures! I think I may have to post even more later… Here’s a preview!

Jiza – Portrait Session

I just did a portrait session for Jiza. We met at LIFE TEEN’s camp covecrest where we were both councelors a “few” years ago. She’s such a fun girl to shoot with, and REALLY photogenic! We had a blast going to Regent and Norfolk and everywhere in-between.

Please Enjoy!

Hollywood CEO and Experience Regent Weekend

Last year I was asked to do Experience Regent Weekend. It was my first (of many) gigs with Regent Univ. and the first time for me to document an event since my move to Va Beach. I remember going home after the first night and telling my roommate Angela, “I figured it out… I just want to move to San Francisco and study photography and become a photographer!!!!” She then replied, “Wow Kelly, I haven’t seen you this happy or excited… EVER!”

What a difference a year makes! This year, I did ERW under my own Photography Business! What a blessing! I really want to encourage everyone to just follow their heart… there may be bumps along the way, and it may be a struggle at times, but it’s worth every bump and struggle to do what you truly love!

I’ve also been really privileged to meet some AMAZING people! Like David Kirkpatrick, a Hollywood CEO and Exec!

Former Pres. of Paramount Pictures and former Pres. of production at Touchstone Pictures and Walt Disney Pictures.

As a former exec., Emmy and Golden Globe winner, he has overseen more than 200 motion pictures incl. Father of the Bride, Terms of Endearment, Forrest Gump, Top Gun, Sister Act, Honey I shrunk the kids, Ghost, Pretty Woman and the highly successful franchises of Indiana Jones, Star Trek, and the tom clancy movies. His movies have grossed over $10Billion worldwide and have garnered close to 400 academy award nom. and 163 wins! And I had to take his picture!
Here’s one from his speech.

Last summer dawn patrol

Did you know that I also surf? My favorite way of starting the day is on my board as the sun is rising and the dolphins are playing… usually though, I’m the one with the camera so I don’t really have any artsy photos of “surfer Kelly” and I was in need of a BIG photo for my wall… Thanks to my timer and no one around to see me here’s what I got…

What I think I’ll mount on the wall..
How do you start your day?
