I had a great time meeting Amy and Joe in Davidson for their engagement session. We had a perfect day for some fun and even "stumbled" upon this fun cruiser for some pics. Their wedding at the Peninsula Club is sure to be a blast next year. Enjoy these sunny photos on this dreary day!

I can't wait until this fall for Heath and Laura's wedding! Not just because I love them as a couple and think it will be so fun, but because Heath is my first cousin, and the closest in age to me in my family. Yup, I love him. Their wedding will not only be a celebration for the two of them, but a big 'ole family shindig at the same time! Laura, she is like family already and we can't wait to welcome her officially. Heath and Laura really started their love affair way back when, in their teens, and never forgot each other. We always said that when Heath met someone and got serious we would know. With Laura, well, we just all knew. Love these two and am just so grateful to get to experience these moments with them!

This session totally knocked my socks off! I've been dying to get it up on the blog. Sarah and JR's session was styled by Lindsey Regan Thorne who also did Sarah's hair and make-up. I can't say enough how much these extra touches added to the shoot! Earlier in the day it didn't seem like the weather was going to hold out, but it did and we had a fabulous time. Lindsey also came to make sure everything looked just perfect. Um, Lindsey, can you come to all my shoots?

JR and Sarah make a precious couple and I can't wait for their wedding this fall at The Big Chill. This is such a fun and unique venue! The space has a vintage feel and Lindsey will also be styling their wedding, so I know it will be fabulous with lots of photo candy. Sarah and JR- it was a blast. Happy Monday!



love the purple accents

She had on sassy shoes. The kind any cute and fashionable girl would wear to a sorority/fraternity mixer. Towards the end of the night, everyone was leaving, and those sassy shoes had become quite painful ( girls, we all have been there). As she was leaving, Laurie told her friends that her feet were killing her. Chris overheard and offered to give her a piggy back ride and the rest was history. Three years later they are getting married this summer at Graylyn, which is a fabulous venue in Winston Salem.

We shot their engagement pictures at Chapel Hill- where they first met over those shoes. Can't wait for your wedding! Happy previewing!

    i really love Chris' costume changes, the slight variation of color in that button up adds a new dimension to the photos.

She had no clue she was getting a ring, which made their engagement so much fun. When she called her mom, Ashton didn't think her mom knew...but she did:)

I cannot wait for Ashton and Taylor's fall wedding at the Train Depot in Salisbury this November! We had such a great time on their engagement shoot- these two were game for anything. I had about a billion favorites, and though these two are some of the most fun-loving, smiley people I know- I was also taken in by their o-so-cute serious faces as well. If these don't make ya smile, I don't know what will! Happy Wednesday!

The top left picture here is SO Ashton;) I had to inlcude it! All smiles all the time!
