I recently got to travel to the beautiful mountains of NC to a little town called Sapphire to meet up with Whitney and Kent for their engagement session. It was an absolutely gorgeous day - bright blue skies, and just the beginning of the leaves turning color.
They met at a Duke Athletics function one night... she was the event planner, and he was attending. They spoke for a while, and the next day Whitney heard from the Duke football coach. He wanted her phone number, which he then passed on to Kent. And, as they say, the rest is history. |
| This spot is the cutest little camp ever, and was the summer playground for Whitney for years while she was a kid. Kent has adopted this place as his own, too, and now they make trips up there a few times a year together. |
| They are the sweetest couple, so cute together and undeniably in love. My favorite kind. |
| Whitney is something of a canoeing expert, and Kent is learning quickly. But whether they're going in a straight line or around in circles, they are always smiling and laughing. |
| I loved these paddles - Whitney told me that each camper gets to decorate one when they're at camp... what a fun idea! |
I absolutely love this shot - Whitney stayed in this cabin one summer when she was a camper, so it's sentimental. But what I adore even more is the look of pure joy on Whitney's face. She lights up like this every time she looks at Kent.
Whitney and Kent, thanks for spending the afternoon with me. I can't wait for your wedding! |

The first thing Caroline and Jimmy said when we met for their engagement session at Lake Norman was that they want to have some fun and possibly jump in the lake at the end. Seriously, I could not ask for better clients!
Caroline and Jimmy are young and beautiful and oh so in love. They are getting married next spring in Charlotte, North Carolina, and thought it would be fun to spend the day in one of the most beautiful areas outside the city. I had a blast with this high energy couple and cannot wait for their wedding! |
| ...followed by more fun! I love this little barn area we found by the boat docks. |
| Caroline, you are seriously gorgeous! |
| Does anyone know what these are? They were lying on the ground around a tree but none of us could figure out what they were...besides awesome eye masks. ;) |
| Jimmy asked if we could have a sword fight with sticks. Heck yeah! First they picked their weapons of choice. Jimmy picked his first, then Caroline picked one that may have given her a bit of an advantage. |
| So, Jimmy decided to re-pick. This was going to be a serious sword fight! |
| Our last stop of the day was at the lake. Or rather IN the lake! The sun was setting, which filled these next shots with golden light. Love it! |
| Favorite shot of the day. I'm pretty sure this is one of my favorite images at an engagement session ever. |
| Caroline and Jimmy, you seriously made my day. Thank you so much for being so fun to work with and being willing to do whatever for your shoot! If you are this much fun on your wedding day, it's going to be an awesome one! |

Laura and David are a wonderful couple who are getting married next May. They love to spend time at the beach, relax on the couch and go to dinner together. Brent and I met up with them at Wrightsville Beach for an afternoon of sun, surf and sand! Laura and David shared their first place together at Wrightsville Beach and towards the end of the session we stopped by their old place for a stroll down memory lane.
Thanks so much to Laura and David for a great session and we know that your wedding is going to be wonderful!
|
| Laura is so beautiful and her smile shines! |
| Congrats again to Laura and David on your engagement! |

Marissa and Peter are a fantastic couple. They are both med students living in Germany and just tied the knot on Bald Head Island here in North Carolina! I had a great time driving around with them on our golf cart as we got to know each other and did their engagement shoot. They were the first couple ever to hold their reception at the Bald Head Island conservancy, which is just one more way they are unique and fun!
|
| Marissa admits to being Etsy obsessed, which is where she found this adorable banner! |
| Marissa and Peter rented a house to stay at while they were on the island and it just so happened that there were two bikes waiting for them in the garage. What luck! These images capture the easy going atmosphere on the island. Look at that golden light! |
| At the end of the shoot and almost at sunset, we took photos on the beach. I must say, the light during this beach shoot was the prettiest I have ever seen! |
| Look at this happy couple! This is why I do what I do. I love working with people in love! |
| Did I mention the light was amazing that evening? |
I can't wait to show you images from Marissa and Peter's wedding!
Marissa and Peter, you were awesome to work with! Thanks so much! |

When Blair and Thomas said they wanted me to take their engagement photos in Blair's grandmother's back yard I thought how sweet. I didn't realize until I got to there how beautiful a backyard could be! It's extra special to this sweet couple because of the time they've spent here together, so it was perfect.
Blair and Thomas are getting married on Figure 8 Island next year. I can't wait to photograph them again in that setting on their big day!
|
| While Blair and Thomas changed into another outfit, I took in the beauty of the surroundings. I have to say I have never seen a caterpillar so full of color! |
| Maybe my favorite shot of the day. Simple and sweet. |
| Blair and Thomas, thank you for inviting me into your family's home and backyard for these photos! It was great to get to know you a little bit before the wedding day. |
