How is it June already? My blog took a nice long winter nap(apparently) but I can't wait to show some amazing things we've been up to…and amazing things that we were up to, that we never showed!  Lets kick this party of with our most recent wedding- shot this past weekend in Blowing Rock, NC.  There are approximately one million reasons I love shooting in Blowing Rock…but if you know me, a top reason is because I actually hate to sweat;)  Those cooler temps call me every time!  Ok, so thats' not the main reason- it's those views, and the landscapes, and the flowers, and the people, and the age of the buildings, and the nature that springs up from everywhere.  A cherry on top is a beautiful bride who I love in a beautiful dress with a beautiful smile- and Wesley is all those things!  I couldn't be happier for her and Hayden(who's love story I will share more with their wedding images) and they danced the night away on a perfect June day.  We shot her bridal portraits a few weeks ago and I wish I could show every.single.one.   Enjoy some of my favorites and get ready for more blogging coming your way!

Kirstin and Matt had the most beautiful wedding a few weeks ago at The Farm at Brusharbor, one of our favorite local venues!  Love her bridal session images that we captured at The Laboratory Mill, another really cool spot!  Can't wait to share their wedding images soon!  I'm so thankful for such amazing clients...Happy Tuesday!

    Wonderful! And the beauty of her dress is stunning.

In honor of the first day of spring, I'm taking it back to one of our winter brides!(should have made this post last week to sneak it into winter!:)) I loved working with Carly, Mark and their entire family. Carly is a girl after my own heart, loving a bold lip and a timeless sense of style! She is a fabulous news anchor, and the camera just loves her! It was a crazy windy day so I was thankful for her up-do and her can-do spirit!  Here is a peak at some of our favorites from her bridal portrait at Childress Vineyards.  Enjoy- and happy Spring!!! 

 

Ya'll, I am straight embarrassed by the lack of posting!  Im so sorry! In the new year, I promise to do better:)  It't not for lack of amazing things to show you, just a lack of sanity and time during this move/transition/remodel we have been going through since the better part of August. It's been said that moving is one of life's biggest events, and while I have moved plenty of times before, this one has kicked my rear like none other! The 2 kid equation plus 2 businesses plus a total house remodel is no joke- but there is light at the end of the tunnel.(PS- you can follow some of our remodel on instagram at @downtownacres)  I am excited over these winter months, which tend to be slow in the photography world, to catch up on some of the amazing moments we were thankful to be a part of in 2016.  There's going to be some jumping around and some consecutive ordering of things, but the main thing is I want to get it all up here before another wedding season is upon us!  Stay tuned these next few weeks for all of the wedding goodness you can stand!  I also hope to be revealing a new senior website- there just hasn't seemed to be the right place to showcase that side of my business, so a site dedicated to that is in the works, too!

Mollie and Brock had the most amazing winter wedding.  November can be a crap shoot, but they had golden light all day- I can't wait to share!  Here are a few favs from her bridal portrait session.  We shot these on a friend of the families property- little did their family friend know he was going to get hook/line/sinkered into being my lighting assistant for the entire shoot:)  It made for a such a fun day!  Enjoy! and Happy New Year!
