featured :: the red dirt bride :: winston-salem wedding photographer

I just loved photographing Becky and Ryan's September wedding in Winston-Salem, NC, and when it was featured on The Red Dirt Bride a couple of weeks ago, I was over the moon. These two are such a sweet, fun-loving couple, and you should definitely check out their feature here.

lucas+christina :: engaged :: winston-salem engagement photographer

I met Christina while in school at Belmont University, and though we were in the same sorority, it really wasn't until I moved away from Nashville and we shared a couple of mutual friends/roommates that I really got to know her. She's truly one of the most hilarious, honest, and loyal people I've ever met, and these days, I'm so blessed to call her one of my best friends.
 
She and Lucas met while in medical school at Wake Forest, and I am so excited and honored that I'll be photographing their wedding next fall at the absolutely beautiful Butterfly Gap Retreat in Maryville, TN. Lucas and Christina live in Alabama now, where they both work, but they made a quick trip back to Winston-Salem long enough to pose for engagement photos at Old Salem and for Josh and me to grab dinner and drinks with them at one of our mutual favorites, Southern Roots.
 
BUT, the real highlight of their visit was that I got to meet my puppy nephew, Bruno. Is he not just the cutest thing you've ever seen? And he's just as sweet as he looks. Without further ado, I give you, Christina, Lucas, and Bruno...

Christina+Lucas :: I'm so happy that you two found each other, and I can't wait to be part of your big day and your life together as Mr. and Mrs.! I'd say more here, except I fully expect to see you no less than 5 times between now and next October :) Love you both (but I love Bruno the most)!

shane+jessica :: married :: millennium center winston-salem wedding

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 :)

Shane+Jess :: Thank you for letting us share in your celebration! It absolutely could not have been more beautiful, and we wish you two a lifetime of love and bliss!
