Kings Mountain vs. Crest Volleyball - 12-8-2020

I was contracted by TPS Photography (Morganton, North Carolina) to photograph some high school volleyball action between Kings Mountain High School (Kings Mountain, North Carolina) and Crest High School (Shelby, North Carolina) at Kings Mountain High School. Both schools’ JV and Varsity teams were pretty stacked with some great players so it was set to be some great matches! With Covid-19 still around, everyone inside the gym was required to wear mask, even the players. So that makes for some interesting images that I know years from now I will look back on and remember the time life for all of us was just different. Anyways, these photos are to be used for both schools’ yearbooks. I had a great time photographing as the action was plenty as schools played their hearts out. Thanks to TPS for asking to photograph on behalf of you.

Toasted and Rolled

If you haven't been to Toasted and Rolled in Morganton, NC, you're really missing out on some great rolled ice cream and sweet creations! Wait, did I just say "rolled ice cream"? Yup, I sure did. You get to watch your ice cream be made right in front of you. It's basically the hibachi grill of ice cream! Your ice cream is made on a super cold chiller plate, as you watch from the other side of a glass partition. Then it's rolled right in front of your eyes to make a super fancy presentation that is super unique and tasty! But if you don't want your ice cream rolled, they have super crazy milkshakes with whole cake slices and other crazy toppings added. And right now they have several holiday special hot chocolates as well. So if you are ever in Morganton or swinging through Burke County, head to downtown and stop by their shop for a treat you will not forget.

Baby Curfman Announcement

Ever since my wife Montanna and I found out we were having a baby in June, I’ve basically become that sappy dad who finds any baby pretty darn cute. It’s amazing how having a baby will do that to you. But anyways, to get to the point, a fellow hiking friend of mine named Hannah contacted me about helping her create some baby announcement photos. Since Montanna and I had announced that we were having a little boy just a few months prior, I of course said “YES” and was excited to help someone else with the joy of telling the world about their expected little one. I met with Hannah and Shane at Oak Hill Iron + Wood in Oak Hill, North Carolina, where they both work. Shane’s parents own the company just outside of Morganton, North Carolina. The location was perfect as the leaves were just starting to turn their bright fall colors, and we were blessed with really comfortable temperatures to take photos in. It was perfect weather for a morning spent photographing in the shadows of the Blue Ridge Mountains. But enough talking from me, here are a few of my favorite photos from Hannah and Shane’s baby announcement.
