When Kristie contacted me earlier this year to photograph her destination wedding in the Outer Banks, NC, neither she nor I could have predicted such a scene.

Photographing in angry weather is not something I am accustomed to, but it made for a very memorable day and very memorable images.

My prayers go out to those having to deal 1st hand with the aftermath of hurricane Sandy.

May the peace and strength of God be with you.

The Restoration Initiative is a non profit organization that sells jewelry, scarves and other accessories made from the hands of underprivileged women around the world and gives the proceeds to fight for restoration of orphaned and enslaved children everywhere.

I was so thankful to have captured the imagery for the new Restoration Initiative website launching soon.

While I focused mostly on the photography of the gorgeous ladies in this post, the large variety of fabulous jewery and handmade products of this organization are incredible! (and would make for a very looooong post)

Thanks to all the beautiful women invloved, and to Jill at Common Couture for her beautiful styling skills.

I would be a very happy woman if more of these projects come my way!

The lovely Brenda Lewis, the founder of The Restoration Initiative
