Holly Ridge Engagement

Me and Erin hit it off instantly with Jeff and Jessica, It was another one of those situations where everywhere I looked I would get giddy and excited pursuing possibilities for photographs. You can't get much better than a good looking couple at golden hour, unless of course you make the location where Erin and I were married two years ago!!! Enjoy the photos and please comment to tell me which ones you like the best, I want to know!!

Holden Beach Portrait Session

When I take a photo of a couple, the subject transforms from just being two individual people to the actual love and chemistry between them. It creates a dynamic that makes it easy to capture something beautiful because theres more to the image than what you can see. Thats why it's my favorite :)

So I'm a bit late to the game in getting to blogging this but I could not be more proud of my brother having graduated saluditorian from his highly competitive high school (which happens to be where I graduated from). Now flourishing in NC State he's about to become an RA... cause he's a boss :)

Several unexpected things happened at this wedding. Like the A/C not working in the brides hotel room, and the threat of rain causing the ceremony to be moved inside. But the show must go on!! And this show was beautiful :)

To know these two is to love these two. You can almost feel the love and energy these two have just in their photos, especially after the first look. But I'll let the pictures do the talking... So enjoy!

Waken Fundraiser

Lucy was born into a house of instability and distress.  Abandoned, at the age of five, by her mother, who has chosen the needle over her own flesh and blood, Lucy is left with a father who provides anything but security. She is often left for days on end with neighbors or distant family while her father seeks out his next high.  She has very few of her own possessions and sleeps wherever she can. She doesn’t understand the things that the men in the house force her to do. She only knows that it hurts, she doesn’t like it, and she is scared.

Desirae & Jordan

Des and Jordan get ready for their wedding day at a beach house. Because of the crazy chaotic day and 35 different people failing miserably at tying Jordan's bow tie, we weren't able to get as many beach photos as Des wanted on their wedding day. So we came back to the same house to dedicate time to doing just beach photos. And here's what we came up with :)

Anastos Family

I love connecting with families. So when I walked into the Anastos' beach home and they're watching the Greece vs. Costa Rica soccer game (given that Futbol is the best sport on the planet), I knew we were going to have a good time :) This family is fun, outgoing, and very loving, even inviting me to stay for dinner afterwords. We had so much fun making so many cool photos, here are some of my favorites.

Ashleigh & Chad

We had so much fun shooting this wedding. After the reception was over we took the light rail back into uptown Charlotte to shoot some more. It also happened to be the same night as a halloween pub crawl. We had run-ins with Captain America, Batman, and a zombie bride and groom.

Luke & Christiana

Everything that could go right, went right at this wedding. It was very humbling for me to watch these two show their love for each other, both with the bridesmaid's well rehearsed song, and the groomsmen's fully choreographed dance!! :)
