  • The Atrium Wedding Photographer | Courtney & Bobby

    Courtney and Bobby tied the knot on a gorgeous October day, with the sun shining through the open roof of the Atrium in downtown Wilmington, North Carolina. They had a very intimate wedding with their closest friends and family, and of course an incredible team of vendors. This couple was an absolute dream to work with, and their love was so strong everyone could feel it! The speeches (MANY of which were impromptu) really showed how much their friends and family cared about these two and it was absolutely heartwarming to listen to. The Atrium is one of my favorite venues to photograph in, because it’s like a little secret garden in there, with open ceilings and greenery climbing up every brick wall. I’m so lucky to get to work with such amazing couples like these ones! Now here are some highlights of their day!

  • Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor Wedding | John Henry & Don

    I recently traveled to Boston to photograph a wedding for a great friend from college, who was lucky enough to marry the love of his life. John Henry and Don tied the knot in July with a stunning view of the city over the water, at the Hyatt Regency Boston Harbor hotel. They said their I-Do’s as the sun went down over the skyline, and then danced the night away with all of their friends and family. One thing that sticks out to me the most from this wedding was the sweet words that Don’s mother spoke at their reception. Parents that are just so genuinely thrilled to see their kids happy, no matter the race or the sex or the circumstance, it’s an absolutely wonderful thing. You could see the genuine excitement in the entire room, especially between John Henry and Don. They literally couldn’t stop smiling or even dancing during our portrait time! I’m so happy I got the opportunity to be a part of their wedding day, and to get to visit Boston again. Love is a beautiful thing.

  • 128 South Downtown Wilmington Wedding Photography | Xan & Joe

    I recently had the pleasure of tagging along with Xan and Joe on their wedding day in downtown Wilmington. They had their ceremony out on the back deck at 128 South, which gives a beautiful view of the Cape Fear River and a great view of the city. They had a delicious dinner inside the venue and then made their way out to the deck again to finish up the night with drinks and dancing. They had such a great group of friends and family members, they never left that dance floor the entire night. The decor was gorgeous, the music was great, and the bride looked absolutely stunning (she even did her own hair and makeup – seriously!!). I’m so happy that I get to work with such amazing clients that make me feel like just another one of the guests. Wishing these two a lifetime of happiness!
