On June 12th I photographed Melissa & Alan’s wedding, and I will one day blog that GLORIOUS wedding, but I just got an email from their videographer - Keith with KA Studios in Charlotte, NC with a link to their PHENOMENAL wedding video highlights. WOW - I think it’s an AMAZING video & I had to share it!!! (Plus, somehow I wound up in a couple shots, so of course I think it’s extra awesome). But really - Keith was a TON of fun for me to work with, and I knew while I was working with him that he was getting some tasty items… I just think he’s awesome & had to share!!
SHEW!! I have A LOT of blogging to catch up on! First things first - the most beautiful beach wedding EVER! I photographed Jenn & Chris in NYC back in October, and it was amazing to be able to photograph them in completely different scenery. I hadn’t been to Airlie Gardens in Wilmington, NC before their wedding, and was completely blown away when I arrived. It really is an AMAZING place - it feels like some dream land or something really corny like that! Supposedly Jenn is a “budget bride”, but wow… she REALLY worked that budget out & had everything stylin’.. and I mean, hard core. AND, my best bud Ashley came along to help me & rocked it out herself!
First, her hair - delicious!!!
Woah
With a side of “WOAH!!!!”
Bryan with Flower & Flour did an incredible job. You need him badly.
My self portrait & Chris’ debut

This spot is begging for a Trash The Dress
yum
salivating
Decor!!! I am actually posting some details!!
The cake was so good, they broke out in dance after the first bite. That’s a good cake.
And this is how Granny rolls - Tootsie Roll style (this song was around back in her day right?)
What an amazing place! PLEASE somebody else get married there & hire me!!
The first words I heard from Kristina as her & Tim drove up to their engagement session was “He has a weird sense of humor!”. I don’t remember now what happened to make her scream that from the car window, but the first impression was awesome. I’m pretty sure that’s how I should be announced everywhere I go, so I couldn’t stop laughing as we had our official hand shake. And it’s true - they are very funny & I love how quirky they are with one another. I definitely wouldn’t call it weird because I felt right at home with them! Tim ADORES Kristina - and I mean, ADORE. It’s just really precious. They met & clicked instantly and are getting married this summer… I’m sad I’m not their wedding photographer, but super thrilled I was able to catch pieces of their relationship before the wedding bells ring.
Kristina told me that Tim is constantly doing sweet things for her - getting her flowers, they go out for ice cream, etc… So, we started at the Farmer’s Market in Raleigh for flowers & ice cream!
Tim loves volleyball - and well.. I wouldn’t call Kristina an aficionada, but she worked it for the camera!
And here’s a piece of that humor she was talking about…
Sunset is my favorite time of the day!!!
Thanks you two & I hope your wedding is as wonderful as you two are!!
