Lindsay and Adam: Engaged!

I had the BEST time with Lindsay and Adam last Thursday when I met them for their engagement session! I clicked with Lindsay right away when we met earlier in the week, so I was excited that they wanted to to ahead and schedule an engagement shoot while the fall leaves were still on the trees! 

I'll be photographing Lindsay and Adam's wedding next September at the Crest Center and after meeting and photographing this couple, I am already looking forward to it! 

Here are some highlights from our shoot: 

We had a little fun with the leaves at the Botanical Gardens! 

Lindsay and Adam, thanks so much! I can't wait for next September to photograph you guys again!! 

Couples Session: Kat and Mike

 

This past Saturday, I met Mike and Kat for some couples photos at the Asheville Botanical Gardens. Mike and Kat have been married for 5 years and wanted some natural photos of the two of them together. They were so fun and easy to photograph and if they didn't tell me, I would've thought they were just engaged yesterday they way they interacted with each other! 

Thanks so much for trusting me for your special portraits! Here are some highlights from our shoot below:

Portraits: Todd and Toler

I spent this afternoon with Todd and Toler Gosnell at the Botanical Gardens at UNC-Asheville. Toler, age 3, is a cutie pie and he was really excited about going swimming after the photo session! I had so much fun with this father/son duo today and here are my favorite shots of the day:

Toler and Todd both took off their flip flops and dipped their feet in the water (below)

The many faces of Toler :)

Thanks for letting me spend the afternoon with you guys!

Thursday with Misty

I spent yesterday with my fellow tarheel (and bride!) Misty Holebrooks for her bridal portrait session at the Asheville Botanical Gardens on UNC-Asheville's campus. We had a fun time, despite the super hot weather and bugs/bees swarming after Misty!! And check out Misty's awesome "something blue" shoes! These not only follow the tradition of "something old, new borrowed and blue", but are just a small part of Misty and her fiancee Justin's "Tarheel blue" wedding (notice the bouquet is also tarheel blue!)--My kind of wedding! Misty and Justin are getting married here in Asheville on July 17 of this year. I met them earlier in the fall in Chapel Hill for their engagement portraits (see bottom photo). Below are a couple highlights of Misty's bridal portrait shoot!

Tuesday with Julia

I was able to spend this afternoon with Julia Holliday for her bridal portriats. It was the perfect day for portraits! Not too hot, not too cold and no call for rain! We started out the day at the Asheville Botanical Gardens on UNC-Asheville's campus and then moved on to the NC Arboretum to finish up. Julia was a super sport and walked all around the gardens in her high heels :) I'll be photographing Julia's wedding to John Rhoden on Aug. 8th of this year in Sylva, NC. I also photographed the couple's engagement portraits last fall (see final photo). Below are a few highlights from today's shoot.
