Greetings all and welcome to my world. My name is Bruce Mayhill and I am the owner, lead photographer, and head dishwasher of Mayhill Photo. Here you will be able to get a chance to see photos from recent weddings and portrait sessions as well as see what sort of ridiculous things I am up to in my personal life.

I recently moved to Concord, NC (just outside of Charlotte) from Los Angeles, CA. My lungs are still getting used to the fresh air while my wife is still getting used to the possibility of snow! I am primarily a wedding photographer and my recipe for great wedding photography is a carefully crafted formula consisting of the following: a documentary approach, a touch of traditionalism (so as to appease Grandma!), and fashion shoot attitude. This is all touched off with a mild-spicy dash of insanity. Fasten your seatbelt, this is not going to be a boring ride!

Jenny and Taylor...last night.

All I can say about this wedding is that it was pretty freakin' awesome.

The wedding was in Mathews, NC at Taylor's parent's house with the ceremony in the front yard and the blow out reception in the back yard. (All right, which one of you neighbors called the police?! We have our ways of finding out!)

Incidentally, the cranking music that sent the SWAT team in was provided by AGAPE DJ. Russell came out and did a fantastic job and thank goodness, he wasn't cheesy or boring. You da man Russell!

Everything was so great and the food was incredible too. I have to say that I currently do not have the caterer's info but when I do, I will let you know. I must have put on 10 pounds.

Such a great, low-stress couple. It was a real joy to photograph this wedding. Thank you so much for letting me be part of your special day.

Below are a few photos for you. The first one is the "Bride's Choice" from the bridal session that we did several weeks back. Craig Ross, photo stylist extraordinaire was there to lend a hand on this shoot. He is awesome to have on photo shoots and no, I won't give you his phone number!

The second photo was from last night...good times.














And...a special thank-you goes out to Ellie Callahan-Treffeisen (my gorgeous sunflower bride from last year!) for coming along and being my extra set of hands. Great job Ellie, I appreciate all of your hard work.

I know, but here is a slideshow!

Yes, it's true that I have been a little neglectful in the blog department. You know where to send your letters of complaint. They will, of course, be answered accordingly.

Also, the studio (yeah I said it, THE STUDIO) is almost complete and ready to go. I did meet with a nice couple last night for their upcoming wedding. Hopefully the looked past the fact that it is almost finished. In fact, my office is currently a "catch-all" closet that even I am afraid to enter.

Nonetheless, below is a slide show from a recent wedding so crank up the volume, get some popcorn and enjoy!
