bridal portraits | annie | greensboro wedding photographer

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.

Expectant parents Kamisha and Adrian pose for their maternity portraits taken by High Point-based family photographer Glessner Photography at Tanger Family Bicentennial Gardens in Greensboro.

I was lucky enough to meet Kamisha and Adrian in 2011 when my business was just a baby, and they were brave enough to trust a new photographer with only a few weddings under her belt with the what was to be the most important day of their lives (A+K - I'll forever be grateful to to you for that). It was then that I first got to know them and their infectious happiness when I photographed their engagement session and sat down with them over dinner at Sweet Potatoes in what felt like a meal with old friends. The following year, I photographed their beautiful wedding celebration at The Lofts at Union Square in High Point, NC.

We've kept in touch, with Kamisha assisting me on styled shoots and meeting for the occasional coffee, and I was so insanely excited when she emailed me earlier this year to let me know they were expecting their first little one! It's truly one of the greatest honors and compliments I can receive when past clients invite me to continue documenting the most defining and exciting moments of their journey together. I met up with Adrian and Kamisha at the Tanger Family Bicentennial Garden in Greensboro last week for their maternity portraits (which basically turned out to be two hours of them laughing - at me and each other) in the beautiful fall evening light...
