So much to love about this session. I don't really know where to begin. But since this is a photographer's blog I'm going to let the images do the talking :)

Read MoreThe Open House at the Barn at Rock Creek was SO MUCH FUN!!! I don't work with models often, I'm used to giving direction and working with normal people (like me) who don't spend a lot of time in front of the camera. So this was like playing in a playground of photographic fun-ness!!!

Read MoreThe Engagement Session might as well be called a Pre-Wedding Session. I had so much fun working with Kyle and Kristin. It felt more like a hangout :) This session is EPIC!!!
Read MoreKate & Myles are SO MUCH FUN!!! You can tell in their engagement portraits, so I'll stop writing and let you just look at pictures :)
Read MoreThis wedding holds a special place in our hearts. Yes Liz and Jeremy are friends of ours and we love them, but also, Erin and I were ourselves married at this exact same venue!!! Lots of memories and a beautiful location where we couldn't have asked for better weather!
Read MoreIt feels like we've been hanging out with Sydney & Tyler for years :)
We had the privilege of being the photographer for their wedding when they eloped in topsail beach in 2014.
And we were super excited when they asked us the very next year to photograph their family!
So we were honored when they asked us to shoot them AGAIN this year to celebrate their 2nd year anniversary with a couples session!! And they are friggin amazing!
We love you Sydney & Tyler, and we look forward to more years of epic photos with you!

Read MoreStephanie & Matthew came down to fort fisher on a Friday evening to tie the knot together. Unfortunately as we were both on our way to the beach we hit a wall of pouring rain, we decided to reschedule for the very next morning bright and early. We all met up at 6:30 for Norma Escobar (yup, thats my mom) to perform the ceremony and capture the beauty of this couples love for each other and their incredible chemistry.
Read MoreJessica and Matt blow me away. They met in Disney, worked in Disney, got engaged in Disney. You could say they have an affinity for Disney :) So it was only appropriate that they have a Magical Disney Wedding. The reception table center pieces were all home made and brilliantly done by Jessica herself, and each one represented a different Disney movie. I was blown away.

Several unexpected things happened at this wedding. Like the A/C not working in the brides hotel room, and the threat of rain causing the ceremony to be moved inside. But the show must go on!! And this show was beautiful :)

To know these two is to love these two. You can almost feel the love and energy these two have just in their photos, especially after the first look. But I'll let the pictures do the talking... So enjoy!
