I am so thrilled to finally be able to share photos of the beautiful Caroline from her bridal portrait session earlier this spring! Caroline selected the lovely Reynolda Gardens in Winston-Salem, NC, for her portraits, and she couldn't have looked more gorgeous if she tried. I am utterly obsessed with her dress, and how absolutely perfect it was for her.

Stay tuned to see a preview of Ryan and Caroline's wedding day coming to the blog soon!

Sweet Annie was the winner of a portrait giveaway as part of our modern black and gold styled shoot featured on Every Last Detail earlier this year, and I couldn't have been blessed with a more lovely and kind subject to photograph. We met up at the historic O'Henry Hotel in Greensboro for her bridal session back in August, and I've been (not-so) patiently awaiting her wedding date so that I could share these images. Annie had her classic hair and makeup done by the wonderful Carla White and wore a simple and stunning dress that let her pure beauty shine through.

Aksana's bridal portrait session proved to be quite the adventure. It began pouring rain just before the session was scheduled to start, but determined to "make it work" (said in the voice of Tim Gunn, of course), we found refuge from the rain under this beautiful awning at the Paul J. Ciener Botanical Gardens in Kernersville, NC.

Isn't she absolutely stunning?! Aksana is a true, classic beauty and just as kind as she is gorgeous.

Since the rain put a damper on our original plans to have the entire session outdoors, the owner and chef at Spring House Restaurant in Winston-Salem were so kind to let us use their beautiful space. I first photographed here when this sweet couple had the idea to do their engagement session in the lovely bar area, and I've been in love ever since.
