If you live in the Raleigh area you’ve surely picked up a copy of The Indy. And if you’ve read the Indy, you’ve probably seen an ad somewhere along the line that pictures a tiny floating head of a smiling woman giving humorous advice out of a speech bubble on a 1960s-esque funky background. Below everything reads “Jodi Foy – The World’s Nicest Dentist.” When we first moved to Raleigh, I saw another dentist exactly one time before I became captivated with Dr. Foy’s ads and told Geoff that we needed to switch to this woman who was claiming to be the world’s nicest dentist. Turns out that she is, indeed, the world’s nicest dentist, but she is also the world’s most hilarious dentist, the world’s most-into-photography dentist, and the world’s biggest champion of the Carolina Hurricanes dentist. We love her and all of her incredible staff (“The Foyettes). And if you need a new dentist, she has the official dentist CSP endorsement.

This was our first time turning the tables on our jobs and us working for Jodi and her beautiful family! Her husband is a super nice guy who is very close with their dog Winnie, who has been sick, and they wanted to document some of their life at home with him, their smaller and younger spitfire of a dog named Maci, and their boys Jack and Nicky. Jack and Nicky are incredibly polite and really nice kids who have two hobbies that seem to occupy 98% of their time and attention: hockey and anything involving Star Wars.  Jodi is an awesome hockey mom who takes them to practice and supports them at all their games (and takes a lot of fantastic photos!) while John plays with them in their driveway at home. Together, they are a really, really fabulous family. We’re so grateful we found her head floating around the Indy all those years ago. :)

It is so fun for us to see where life takes our clients. They’re kinda like our kids. We shoot their wedding and then off they go into the real world, and sometimes they call or write us to tell us of their adventures. :) It’s especially satisfying when they end up starting their own businesses! We have a lot of really talented, creative, and professional clients out there, and now we also have a lot of awesome connections. One of these clients is Brooke Howard! We shot her wedding back in 2012 and were so happy to hear from her regarding photographing promos for her new law firm! She had previously been working under another office but has branched out onto her own and created Howard Law, PLLC where she handles personal injury, fraud, malpractice, and other cases. We are so proud of her and the work she is doing, and are super happy to have photographed her promos for her in her new office in Charter Square in downtown Raleigh! Congratulations, Brooke!
