Hopefully, you had the chance to check out Becky's bridal portraits from the Greensboro Children's Museum earlier this week, and today, I am so excited to share a few highlights from Becky and Ryan's wedding at Old Salem this past weekend. I absolutely loved working with these two - they are so full of life, smiles, and kindness, and they treated us more like old friends than hired help.

Their day was filled with personalized details and Southern charm, complete with blue-and-white checkered accents, monograms, bowties, and sunflowers.

I love a sweet sister photo! There was no doubting how proud Beth was to see her little sister as a beautiful bride :)

A first look is absolutely one of my favorite parts of a wedding day. Becky and Ryan had a few sweet moments alone and plenty of time for photos before the ceremony.

The ceremony was timed perfectly to end right around sunset, so we got to take advantage of this beautiful light in the Tavern Meadow. Aren't these two just the cutest?!

lisa :: bridal portraits :: winston-salem wedding photographer

Lisa and Chris were married this past weekend in a beautiful ceremony, and I am thrilled to now be able to share her bridal portraits. We got together last month at the always lovely Old Salem Museum and Gardens for this session, and Lisa looked absolutely marvelous.

​Lisa has a hard time keeping a straight face, is willing to try anything to get the perfect shot, and is one of the most kind, fun, and lovely brides I've ever had the honor of photographing, and I think her beauty shined from the inside out in her bridal portraits.

Lisa brought along her precious puppy, Rookie ... there's nothing like the love between a dog and his owner.​
