Baby Chase. 7 months. Charlotte NC portrait and wedding photographer.

This is the third time in one year that I have had the priviledge of working with the Bolick family, and it just gets more fun every time! Baby Chase was just one day shy of 7 months when we did this session. The best part of my job is documenting families as they grow Be sure to take a look the session 1 + 2 with them, as well.

I also have to thank my niece, Emily, for her help on this session. She is only 12, but she has a very creative eye! I have a feeling she be working with me a lot in a few years Thanks for all your help, Em!!!

Such a cutie! Great work

St. Thomas Preservation Hall downtown wedding. Alfreda + Al’s Black and White Affair.

Monday, January 16, 2012

Alfreda knew exactly what she wanted for her evening wedding to the love of her life. She wanted a romantic black and white affair filled with candles, beautiful white flowers everywhere, and a lot of love. There was no shortage of love at this wedding, that is for sure! As for the beautiful decor, Alfreda left all of the details up to the very talented designer/coordinator Brittany of Orchid Island Events. Alfreda + Al just relocated to Wilmington, and had been planning a destination wedding, and Alfreda said it herself, she couldn’t have done it without Brittany! My associate, Trinity, did an amazing job capturing the details of this wedding. Be prepared there are a lot of details shots in this post. Everything was so gorgeous, and we hope this helps all of you brides that are still looking for inspiration for your upcoming wedding. The rest of this post is filled with emotion. This was not one of those weddings where we took a lot of time for “formal” photos. This couple preferred us take a more candid approach, which I am always happy to do.

Starting with their first glance. It was already dark outside, since the ceremony didn’t start until 6pm, so they first saw eachother in the little parlor at the church.

I love the way Trinity photographed the bride’s shoes. Simple, yet beautiful!

The First Glance

Some pre-wedding jitters. It felt a little weird photographing the bride while she was have a “moment.” But I knew she would appreciate this later

The darling flower girl, peaking around the corner before she walked down the isle. The stunning details…

Courtyards & Cobblestones: A Walk Through Wedding Row

Wednesday, January 4, 2012

I am so excited to be taking part in the first Courtyards & Cobblestones: A Walk Through Wedding Row.”

This is a “bridal show” with a twist. Although bridal shows can be very helpful to the newly engaged couple, they can also be very overwhelming and a bit stressful; neither of which you should experience while selecting the perfect vendors for the best day of your life! At Courtyards & Cobblestones, you will walk through 2 blocks of Downtown Wilmington on a guided tour, where you will hear about the history of Wilmington. At each of the four venues you will meet and mingle with the top wedding professionals in a relaxed and casual manner.

Unlike traditional “bridal shows” there will be no banners, no booths and you will not have to fight your way through a crowd Instead you’ll find us, your vendors, ready to hear about your wedding and show you what we have to offer. We look forward to chatting with you on January 14th at The Balcony on Dock!

Be sure to Check out the website and facebook page for more info!

Tickets are sold in advance for $10. Please get your tickets now, because they are selling out fast! I promise you don’t want to miss this event!!!

———————————————————————-

We photographed a promo shoot for this event. I will be showing a beautiful display of these images at the Show. Below is a small taste of what you’ll see. Be sure to stop by and see the rest!
