married | laura and brett | mount airy wedding photographer

Brett and Laura's wedding was a beautiful, intimate event in the small town of Mount Airy, North Carolina - just north of Winston-Salem and made famous by Andy Griffith. At the time of their wedding, I had recently flown back from Germany and was 7+ months pregnant, so I enlisted the help of my mentee Alycee to schlep bags and set up lights (and what a godsend she was!).

These two are high school sweethearts, and it shows through the comfortable love they radiate. If there were nerves on their wedding day, they weren't obvious...

I loved this sweet little church they chose for their wedding... there's just something about being surrounded by only the closest of friends and family

engaged | ryan and kristen | danbury engagement photographer

When Ryan and Kristen contacted me a few months ago, they knew they wanted an autumn engagement session somewhere that would showcase the beautiful changing colors of the leaves. Thankfully, this adorable couple was willing to make a little bit of a drive to one of my favorite places to spend time outdoors, Hanging Rock State Park. 

They were troopers, doing some light hiking and minor rock climbing as we made our way along the beautiful trail to one of several waterfalls in the park. How sweet are these two...

Kristen+Ryan :: Thank you so much for allowing me to capture this beautiful time as you anticipate your wedding! Can't wait to join you next year for the main event!

Austin and Ann Marie (or Ammie, as she's called by her friends and family) are one of the most vibrant, kind, and fun-loving couples I've ever had the honor of working with. If you spend any amount of time with them, they'll quickly make you feel welcome and comfortable, and you'll soon realize just how much they love one another.

I've gotten to know the two of them over the past several months from our initial meeting to their engagement session and most recently, Ammie's bridal session, and I knew that their wedding would be one to remember with the help of Faye from Coordinating Dreams. We started off the day with the bridal party getting ready at WinMock at Kinderton...

Without seeing each other, Austin and Ann Marie took a moment to pray together before they headed to the church. There wasn't a dry eye in the room...

Once everyone arrived at St. Leo's Catholic Church, Ammie's father saw her for the first time. His face was priceless!

After a beautiful ceremony, everyone headed back to WinMock for the evening's festivities. The bridal party were such troopers, toughing it out in the heat and humidity to get some great photos...

You gotta love a group of groomsmen with personality... check out their superhero socks!

Aren't these two just precious?!

Austin and Ann Marie had a wonderful, unique idea to use a bench as their guestbook to showcase at their home...

Ammie and her friends treated guests at their reception to a choreographed dance number...

Austin+Ann Marie :: Thank you so much for letting us join you to document your special day! We wish you a lifetime of love, happiness, and adventures together!
