Photo of groom and bride Shane Goodenough and Jessica Derr at Old Salem in Winston-Salem, NC.

You may remember Shane and Jessica from their Greensboro engagement session last fall. Josh and I were so honored to be part of their wedding this weekend at Saint Paul the Apostle Catholic Church, followed by a great party at Winston-Salem's Millennium Center. I am absolutely in love with all the details from this wedding, many of which were made by the bride herself under her business name, As You Fancy.

We headed to Old Salem after the ceremony, and despite a little rain, we were able to capture these sweet images of the couple's first moments together as Mr. and Mrs. The best man even celebrated the couple with a little fireworks show while they posed for pictures :)

mark+sheri :: married :: winston-salem wedding photographer

Mark and Sheri's wedding was held this weekend at the beautiful Millennium Center in Winston-Salem, and we were thrilled that we had the opportunity to work with Veronica and her crew from Behind the Scenes once again. 

You may remember Mark and Sheri from their engagement session last fall. From the moment I met these two, I knew their wedding would be full of fun and excitement, and they didn't dissappoint. There wasn't a moment on their wedding day that they weren't smiling and laughing with one another or friends and family, and it was clear from the moment they first saw each other to their exit at the end of the night, it was obvious that they were genuinely thrilled to have the honor of calling each other husband and wife.

How could you NOT love a pair of shoes that looks like this?! Oh my stars... they were just gorgeous.

Sheri... you looked absolutely beautiful! And this gown was FABULOUS (with pockets!!)...

I love, love, LOVE when a couple opts to see each other before the ceremony with a "First Look". Such a priceless moment...

...and it allows for extra time for some great photos of the bride and groom like the ones here...

Sheri had an awesome choregraphed first dance with her dads... so FUN!

Mark+Sheri - Josh and I are honored that you allowed us to be part of your wedding day, and we wish you many, many, many more years of happiness and lots of laughing together :)

tony+tonika :: engaged :: greensboro engagement photographer

Yesterday, I had the great pleasure of spending the afternoon with Tonika and Tony. These two are so much fun and made the trip all the way from Atlanta for an awesome Greensboro engagement session. They'll be getting married next spring at the beautiful Empire and Regency Rooms at Elm Street Center downtown, complete with a Shutterbooth and cake from Delicious Bakery (two of my personal favorites)!

We started out at North Carolina A&T State University, where Tony studied engineering and Tonika was a business major. I had a great time with these two, taking advantage of the beautiful campus for some great images and listening to Tonika and Tony reminesce about classes and college life at their alma mater.

I love being able to capture those in-between moments of pure laughter, joy, happiness, and love. You can tell that these two truly enjoy each other's company.

After wrapping up the session in downtown Greensboro, instead of taking me up on my offer for a cup of coffee for the road, this precious couple treated ME to some cheesecake from Cheesecakes by Alex for Josh and me to enjoy at home! I know I brag on my brides  and grooms all the time, but seriously y'all, I work with the best couples in the world!

Tonika+Tony - I had SUCH a fabulous time with both of you at yesterday's session, and I can't wait for your wedding next May! Thank you again for your generosity (the cheesecake was DELISH), and I look forward to seeing y'all again soon!
