I am so excited to announce that I am officially offering a Photo Gift Registry to my brides. The registry works just like it would at any department store, except instead of registering for yet another kitchen appliance that you’ll never really use, you’re registering for credits towards amazing photography products! You can use the credits to upgrade your album, add a Gallery Wrapped Canvas, order prints for your home… anything you’d like!
If you are interested in taking part in the registry program, please email me at CrystalLeePhotography@yahoo.com so that I can send you personalized registry cards for you to include in your invitations. Once a guest purchases registry credits, I will send them a certificate that they can present to you at the wedding.
For more information, you can visit www.CrystalLeePhotography.com/photo-registry.
This is my last post for the week… my Hubby and I are headed up north to visit our family in New York for a belated Christmas celebration. I’ve heard that they are slammed with snow, so we’re certainly in for a treat! I haven’t seen snow in over 3 years, and after being spoiled by the San Diego and Myrtle Beach weather, I don’t think my body is fully prepared for this cold, LOL!
We’ll be back in town next week, with lots of pictures! But for now, here are some photos from Brookgreen Gardens Night of A Thousand Candles to hold you over 
Wish us luck in the frozen tundras of the north!

It’s official… our 2009 Christmas card is by far my favorite one ever! If you know me, you know that my pugs are my children/obsession, and I have just about a bazillion (yes, I said bazillion) photos of them. They will do just about anything for a treat, thus resulting in this year’s most fabulous portrait.
I present to you, my favorite new portrait of my little angels!
This just might end up as a 24×36 canvas print in our new home this year… maybe in black and white?
I hope your holiday was as special as mine, and I look forward to spending a fabulous 2010 with all of you!

What a fabulous year 2009 has turned out to be! I have been fortunate enough to take part in 13 beautiful weddings this year… a wonderful way to close out my first official year in business! As you may know, I always offer a complimentary Anticipation Session with every one of my wedding Collections. This is a great way for me to spend time with the future Mr & Mrs before the big day so that we can get comfortable with each other and I can better understand their style and personality. The following images are a few of my favorites from the year, in no particular order. I would love it if you would comment and let me know which ones you enjoyed the most!
On the books for 2010 are some shoots that I have no doubt you will enjoy… including a pillow fight and the old Carolina Theater! I hope you have a fabulous New Year!

3 weeks since my last post… whaaat?? Things have been pretty crazy around here as of late with the holiday season coming up, but going forward my New Years resolution (one of many!) is to take time to blog at least 1-2 times a week. My husband just started a personal blog, and the fact that he blogs more than me (once every 4 days) is inspiration for some competition! LOL. So be on the lookout for many new posts in the near future, including my Top 10 favorite wedding & engagement images from 2009 and some detailed postings for photographers and clients on my workflow, as well as the products that I offer and how fabulous they are! 2010 is going to be an amazing year.
And because every post is better with a picture, here is a “before & after” shot for your enjoyment. More images like this coming in a future post!

Last week I did a mini photoshoot in my home of my pugs, and it has been taking every bit of strength that I have not to post them here! Jon and I haven’t been very good at sending out cards the past few years, so now that he’s out of the military and home for good, we decided to make up for it. I designed a fabulous new card, which I can’t wait to share with our family and friends!
Here is a sneek peek of what’s in store…
Best wishes for a fabulous Thanksgiving!

I can’t even begin to explain how excited I am for Andrea and Jarick’s May 2010 wedding! They are getting married at the fabulous Cypress Gardens, where scenes from the movie “The Notebook” were filmed. Remember the scene on the lake with the ducks? That was Cypress Gardens. Such a beautiful place for a wedding!
Here are some of my favorite shots from their Anticipation Session that we did last week at Boone Hall in Mount Pleasant:
These gorgeous trees were featured in “The Notebook” as well.
This series is my favorite! I loooove the bright bold colors

What an absolutely amazing way to close out the year… a wedding at the beautiful Kalmia Gardens of Coker College! Donna was one of the first few brides to book her wedding with me, so I am beyond excited to share her photos with you. It has been an amazing first year, and I look forward to all of the fabulous things that I have to look forward to in 2010!
Here are some of my favorite images from Donna & Christopher’s wedding:
Mr & Mrs!
Such a sweet moment between the bride and her ringbearer
Gotta love those fabulous fall colors…
Kalmia Gardens was full of beautiful places to shoot… this just might be my favorite shot!
Congratulations Donna & Chris, I hope you are having a blast on your honeymoon!

I showed up to Krysa & Aaron’s wedding complete with my hot pink gloves and matching scarf, prepared for the chilly weather that we’ve been seeing in South Carolina the past few weeks. But sure enough, Mother Nature filled the sky with warm sunlight, and it turned out to be a fabulous summer-like day! Here are some of my favorite images from the day:
The wedding was held at The Oaks Country Club, and it is an absolutely gorgeous place to photograph!
The most adorable flower girl ever
Congratulations Krysa & Aaron!

I love my job. I know I’ve said it a million times before, but it’s true! I love everything about it. Especially when I get to photograph a wedding for a friend. Cissia and I used to work together, and I was thrilled the day she came into the store with a fabulous new rock on her hand. (By the way, good job, Tink!)
Here are some of my favorite shots from their engagement session this past weekend:
Faaaaavorite!
Congratulations guys!
