Oh, sweet Haleigh and Graham. These two are a treasure and I knew it from the moment Haleigh and I started emailing each other. She told me how they met at church where Haleigh’s dad is a pastor and how it was her dad who actually set them up! Graham proposed on Easter Sunday right after service, in front of a wooden cross that he and Haleigh had decorated with flowers the day before. If that story wasn’t enough to make my heart burst, Haleigh sent me photos from the proposal and when I saw those smiles, I knew I would be absolutely blessed to photograph their wedding. When they decided to hir ..read more

Thanks to wedding blogs, Pinterest and Instagram, wedding detail photos (and specifically bridal detail photos) have become a big part of telling the visual story of a wedding day. I don’t know exactly when this trend took flight but you’d be hard pressed to not come across tons of these images while planning a wedding. For some brides, detail photos are really important. For others, maybe not so much. If you’re in the “I LOVE DETAILS” camp— this post is for you. And if you’re not really sure what the fuss is about, maybe this post can help you decide.

Hey, hey! It’s almost wedding season! I don’t know about you, but I am super excited to get the ball rolling and to share in all the wonderful celebrations! I seriously love this job! As spring approaches, there are sure to be lots of photographers preparing to shoot their first weddings ever! This can actually be quite frightening and nerve-racking for the photographer. I remember having butterflies in my stomach in the days leading up to my first gig as a lead photographer. Now that I think about it— pterodactyls might be a better metaphor than butterflies! Y’all, I was scared! But guess wha ..read more

Samantha | Bridal Portraits | Wilmington NC Wedding Photographer

Once upon a time, I had no idea what a ‘bridal portrait session’ was. It’s true! They aren’t really a ‘thing’ in California! But when I moved to North Carolina, I quickly learned that no southern wedding is complete without a gorgeous portrait of the bride displayed regally at the reception. I love the tradition of these photos and the legacy they provide! We shot Samantha’s bridal portraits at Greenfield Lake and in downtown Wilmington. I’m obsessed with the ethereal aesthetic by the water and the contrast of the images shot downtown in a picturesque, colonial alley. It all feels just so Nort ..read more

My first wedding of the 2019 season took me to Virginia Beach where Madalyn and Justin celebrated their marriage with their closest friends and family and let me tell ya, it was a GREAT way to start off the year! Their ceremony took place at the chapel aboard NAS Oceana and afterward, we headed to The Attic at Waterman’s on the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. The wind was in full force that day in March but the sun was shining down onto blue waters from a clear sky— something we had all been keeping our fingers crossed for! I could not have asked for a more fun and gracious couple to usher in the n ..read more
