On Aug 11, I had the honor of photographing Jonee's Sweet 16 birthday bash at the Renaissance in Portsmouth. This party was something I never experienced. It started off as a wedding, where Jonee came down the isle in a stunning gown and veil. Then came a ring exchange where Jonee was given a 1 kt. diamond ring from her mother. Moments later, it manifested into a spiritual church service in celebration of Jonee's purity. The event went off without a hitch thanks to Lauren Peoples, Catering Manager at the Renaissance. Kudos to Ollie Sims and Denise Russell for doing a masterful job in organizing the event to perfection. The room was decorated in shear elegance thanks to Star Whittaker from the Touch of Elegance.

Keith...you are absolutely amazing. I saw Jonee at least half a dozen times prior to her big day and never once did I meet the young woman that you captured in each of her pictures. You possess the ability to bring out the confident, beautiful and simply stunning person that lives within each of us. You are simply phenomenal and the competition is none. Thank you for a perfect work of heart and I'll see you in October! =)
Lauran, wow!!!! Thanks for those strong words. I am truly humbled by your words. Now I just have to live up to them. It is a pleasure and honor to be a part of your exclusive team!!

Mr. Cephus,
Thank you for accepting the challenge of doing something you have never experienced before. The work was exquisite. Your flawless, artistic craftsmanship was definately recognized through each photl. I especially loved how you collaborated with the talent of the makeup artist, Edward Reyes, to bring out the beauty of Jonee.
All I can say Mr. Cephus is you are excellent at the gift God has given to you. Please continue to use your gift to the glory of God.
