Children's Miracle Network

Our local radio station, 103.7 WCIR has a fund-drive currently underway to support the WVU Children's Miracle Network. Because I have a young family member directly affected by cancer and am aware of the awesome people who work at WVU Children's Hospital, I just wanted to pass along the information in case you'd like to donate to this worthy cause:

Children's Miracle Network

or donate specifically to West Virginia University Children's Miracle Network

More notecards...

This is my latest notecard, one that has been on my mind to design for a long time. I made this image of a Black & Yellow Garden spider last year and it's one of my personal favorites. This lovely creature reminded me of a story I read years ago by Nigel Tranter titled, The Bruce Trilogy. In this historical novel, the legend of Elspeth comes to life.

Now you can enjoy this inspirational tale, published on the back of notecard, of how a spider inspired a king!

New Custom Notecards

Few things bring greater pleasure than sharing my love of photography AND promoting

the great state of West Virginia!

It has been so nice to hear the feedback from my clients when these little notecards have been given as tokens of my appreciation. For a few years now, I have printed boxed sets as a special favor but now I am bringing them to you as part of my business with hopes that they will bring warmth and smiles to those far and near who cherish the beauty of

this piece of heaven we call West Virginia.

Best Wishes to Matt & Lyndsi

Congratulations to Lyndsi & Matt on the celebration of their marriage! I feel blessed to know you and your precious family and thank you for asking Natural Elements Photography to document this happy occasion.

The reception was shining, full of laughter & good cheer...special dances and a few tears..

I especially enjoyed the dance Lyndsi shared with her grandmother! ; ' )

You all did an outstanding job on the details, too!

May God bless your marriage and grant you many joyful years!

Lyndsi ~ Bridal Session

What a privilege to capture images of the gorgeous bride, Lyndsi, in Charleston, WV! Bring on the stormy skies; it only helped to create some dynamic images =-)

The evening light was so flattering...

The interior, so elegant... very suitable to compliment a graceful and classic look.

I especially enjoy a bit of whimsy....

Thanks for the opportunity!

VHS Multi-Year Reunion

‘77-’84 classmates of Valley High School celebrated their reunion in style at the WV Tech Ballroom on June 26, 2010. Vernell contacted me about the reunion back in the spring and it was a real pleasure working for her and getting to know her through this event. Congratulations to Vernell and the VHS Reunion Committee for putting on a great event! And thank you for asking Natural Elements Photography to document this occassion.

Lyndsi & Matt

What fun we had on this delightful evening in Fayette County, WV photographing Lyndsi & Matt’s engagement session. After a few rain delays, the skies finally cleared and we were able to spend close to 3 hours together in areas around the New River.

Lyndsi is a special gal to me, as I’ve been friends with her family for close to 10 years now. In fact, Lynsdi was one of the first clients I had in the early years of Natural Elements Photography. She is a beautiful young lady and together with her fiancé, Matt, they make a lovely couple. I look forward to seeing her wedding dress at her bridal session next!
