So that you know a bit about me...I began my photography career back in the mid-90's while earning my undergraduate degree in Technical Photography from ASU. I went on to receive a graduate degree in Photography in Vancouver, BC while continuing to capture weddings in a photojournalistic style. With the unique experience of photographing weddings across North America, from Vancouver to Florida, I am available worldwide to cover weddings, events, and portraits. Please bookmark my blog and stay in touch! You can visit my web site and online portfolio by clicking "website" on the tab located beside my logo. Thank you for stopping by!We had a lovely time doing Brooke’s bridal portrait a few weeks before her Carolina Inn wedding. The Highgrove Estate, just 20 minutes outside of Raleigh, NC, was the perfect location for our session. I will have more to come from their amazing wedding!
I love her gown from Alexia’s Bridal Boutique. Ginger Mullins Salon Inc. did Brooke’s hair and makeup and Ginger was wonderful, as always!
Sweet moments just before the walk down the aisle…
The ceremony…
I love the floor in this church…
A fun ride to the reception!
Edie and Brennan had a lovely weekend and I LOVED being there to capture everything. To start, here’s a peak at the bridesmaids luncheon.
And the adorable couple during their rehearsal dinner…
The wedding day! There is nothing quite as beautiful as a Vera Wang gown…
Edie is gorgeous and a joy to be around!
A timeless portrait…
More to come from this one! Thanks for stopping by!
Here are a few from Anna and Rob’s beautiful wedding in Durham. Take note that the amazing gown and flowers were from the wonderful women of Tre Bella.
The guys (and little guys) heading into the remarkable Duke Chapel…
Anna has such a timeless beauty about her…
Exchanging of the rings…
A sweet candid moment as they exit the church right after the ceremony…
I love the way they looked at each other throughout the evening!
The Washington Duke Inn…always an honor to photograph at such an elegant venue.
Liquid Pleasure seriously played for almost 4 hours with hardly a break! They are incredible!
Best idea ever…
Lauren and Adam’s gorgeous wedding at Fearrington Village was inspiring to capture as an artist. The colors, the amazing backgrounds, and most of all these two inspiring people. You all seriously need to meet these two! I had the honor of photographing their engagement session, Lauren’s bridal portrait, as well as the bridesmaids luncheon and rehearsal dinner. I have so many photos to share, but these are just a few from the wedding day. Enjoy!
I’ve been excited to share these with you! Some of you may recognize Sam, since he is the head coach of the men’s tennis team at UNC. Rebecca is a star tennis player herself and it only takes two seconds of being around this couple to know that they are perfect for each other. So much love and joy between these two and all their guests! And the elegant Chapel Hill Country Club is always one of my favorite places to photograph weddings. Enjoy!
I love that Rebecca had two dresses!
We ended the night with a group picture of the Coach with his team…
It is an honor to be included among the top vendors to show our work at the 2010 Carolina Inn Bridal Fair! Due to the snow, the date has been moved to next Sunday, February 7th from 1-4pm.
Enjoy a few of my favorites from photographing at The Inn over the years…
And here’s one from a wedding a few years ago that The Carolina Inn uses on their web site (such a fun shot!)…
Hope to see you Sunday February 7th! In the meantime, enjoy the snow!
Sunday, January 10th from 12noon-4:00 I will be among some wonderful vendors at the Washington Duke Inn’s bridal showcase. Come and get wedding planning tips, see live demonstrations, attend an informative seminar, sample cakes, foods, and more! And come by my table and say “hi”!
A perfect wedding at a perfect venue!
Loved this wedding at Tanglewood Park in Clemmons, NC! Beautiful atmosphere and such remarkable details…
