Dog Days of Summer Photo Day

Here is a peek at just a few of the awesome dog personatities I was able to capture this past Saturday at my Studio at 631 N. Trade St. Friday night we opened with a art shot that included some of my dog photography and some incredible paintings by Hilda Spain -Owen. Saturday I opened for the afternoon and had 10 portraits in 4 hours! It was crazy.. lots of dogs running around playing with each other. A beautiful chaos.

Cara & Rob, A sneak peek!

             I hope you enjoy this glimpse of Jodi and Chris' Wedding day at Elkin Creek Vineyards. The vineyard is one of the prettiest I have had the opportuntiy to photograph. Jodi and Chris got married at the meeting of two creeks on the property.

Sam and Trish's Wedding/ Christine Rucker, North Carolina Wedding Photojournalist

   My good friends Sam and Trish got married this weekend in Brevard, NC- The wedding was really fun, but challanging for me as a photographer. I wanted to capture every little moment, but I also wanted to be part of the celebration. PLUS, the minister's plane was delayed because of storms and the 7:00 p.m. wedding ended up starting after 8:00- in the middle of a grove of trees, with little light left!.

   Casey & Brooke finally tied the knot at Westglow Resort in Blowing Rock, NC.  The forecast was 90% rain, but the skies cleared up just in time for the ceremony and the sunset was spectacular. The Johnny White Band was the entertainment and they were some of the best musicians I've heard at a wedding.

Jodi, Chris.. And Chulo/ Christine Rucker, Winston-Salem, NC Wedding Photojournalist

                    I am really excited to photograph Jodi & Chris' wedding June 12 at  Elkin Creek Vineyard. It is one of the most beautiful Vineyards I have visited, and it has a really funky vibe! Chulo, the "ring bearer" needed to get used to the grounds before the wedding day.. and he has some work to do to figure out the swing set!

Amy's Bridal Session/ Christine Rucker, Winston-Salem, NC Wedding Photojournalist

Now that Amy got married, It's safe to put a few of my favorite portraits up... we didn't want Erik peeking before the big day! Amy has dragged her dress through snow to appease my great idea, then she trapsed around a farm with me when the temperatures were pushing 90-- needless to say, Amy has wond the bride of the year in my book! Check in soon to see a few of my favorite wedding images!

Lucy-Loo/ Christine Rucker Photography, WS, NC Family Photojournalist

This weekend I had a nice little visit with my pals Sam&Trish, and new little Pal Lucy. Sam and Trish are getting married this summer. I had a brilliant idea to record some audio of Lucy language and mixed it with a few of these images for on "online wedding invitation by lucy"... of course their were a few sub-titles.

Fun with Jen, Karen and the Kids! /Christine Rucker, W-S NC Family Photojournalist

This is one active bunch. I ALWAYS have a blast when we do a family session. I had not photographed G.G in almost two years, so it's fun to see how much she's grown and all the funny things she says!

 The First Friday Arthop brought a great crowd out! I managed to sneak out of my studio to roam for a bit with my camera and caught this image of boy and photographer's expression of street dancers.If any one know who this kid is, contact me.. I'd love to give a print to his parents!
