workshop :: amy lynne originals :: winston-salem wedding photographer

A couple of weeks ago, I got an email from my friend Amy, owner and creative mind behind Amy Lynne Originals, asking if I'd be willing to take a few photos at her upcoming workshop, and I was more than happy to accommodate. I first met Amy working together at Tim and Ashlea's Childress Vineyards wedding a couple of years ago and have since had the opportunity to photograph her headshots and get to know her and her work a bit better. She is an amazingly gifted floral designer based in Winston-Salem, and I am so thrilled that she has begun offering these classes for everyday folks like you and me.

This particular workshop was BYOC - Bring Your Own Container - and Amy provided some awesome instruction for creating the perfect floral design using what you have. She supplied a varied assortment of flowers and filler for her attendees to use, and honestly, it was so much fun and so educational, even for me and I wasn't even a student!

Floral design really is an artform, and I just love how much personality and individuality shines through each person's creation. These were the final products of the workshop attendees:

tim+ashlea :: married :: lexington nc wedding photographer

You may remember Tim+Ashlea from their beautiful farm engagement session a couple of months ago or Ashlea's bridal portraits that were posted to the blog just a few days ago. We were introduced to these two through mutual friends not long after we moved to North Carolina, and we were so excited when they got engaged and asked us to photograph their wedding!

It was a gorgeous, albeit a very hot, day down at the lovely Childress Vineyards in Lexington. The bridal party and guests were all troopers withstanding the 100+ degree temps to see them become Mr. and Mrs. (the wine slushies were especially helpful in keeping everyone cool... just one of the many benefits of getting married at a winery), and the newlyweds were awesome for putting up with the heat and humidity to get some great photos in the vineyards.

Just look at those shoes! Ashlea is a girl who LOVES bling.

I am in love with this sweet moment that Josh captured from afar of Ashlea's daddy walking her down the aisle... a good father/daughter moment gets me every time!

Aren't they just stunning?!?

Tim+Ashlea :: Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your very special day! We had such a great time with you and all your guests, and we are so grateful to have you two as friends! Hope you're living it up and having an amazing time in Jamaica :)
