Mike and Sarah Engagement Hike

April 25, 2013

I had the best time on this engagement session hiking around with Mike and Sarah. Besides being easy to look at, they also have such an easy love that photographing them was a dream.  Mike and I know each other from college and I have had the absolute pleasure of becoming friends with Sarah this year. (real life plus instagram. (I love instagram)) She is such a gem. And she introduced me to one of the best latte’s I have ever had. So good.  I can’t wait to photograph their May wedding. SO excited!!!

Ohmygosh this is like straight out of Michelle Lyerly’s Dream Photo Sessions AMIRIGHT!?–hiking, a cute pup, A RIDICULOUSLY SWEET AND LOVELY COUPLE (!!!), some moody light and that lil headband of hers to top it off?! Oh and we’ll not forget his charming 5 o’clock scruff, too. :) I swoon. So, so good, Michelle!

So you know those people that come into your life at the exact right time and fill the perfect spot in your little world? I really feel this way about Julia, and our friendship. (lets be honest, I pushed my way into her life but whatever) If you haven’t checked out her work you should head there now. Here is a little bit of her family and a small peek into her heart. Don’t you guys just want to bottle up her laugh????? Love you Julia, Jonathan and Quinn. xoxoxo

I’m not even going to tell you how much I love this and how much it warms my little heart on this gloomy rainy gray day, okay!? Because it’s just ridiculous how sweet this family is, and what a treasure you’ve given them capturing these lovely little moments. I can’t even talk about it. I’m serious.

Springish shoot | Boone NC photographer

April 8, 2013

Spring in Western NC can be CRAZY! Right when you think the snow is gone 2 more feet fall. Everyone else off the mountain has green on their trees and plants in the ground by April. With every snowfall you think it might be the last and mourn the passing of the season with a bit of celebrating too. So High Country friends…. what do you think? Has spring finally sprung for you guys?

Gabbie and Ryan and their cute-as-can-be dog, Ivan met me over at Shady Grove a couple of weeks ago. These two have the sweetest spirits. So happy that they found each other.

Shady Grove Garden and Nursery  grows amazingly beautiful wildflowers on their farm and sell them by the bucketful for weddings. You can find them at  The Watauga County Farmers Market May-October every Saturday. Go buy some local flowers if you are in Boone. :) Thats how Christopher and I found them and then decorated the tables at our own wedding with their flowers. Susan is also great at floral crowns… like the one on Gabbie :)))

And two film shots I snapped on my Canon 1N

another personal instagram post | NC wedding photographer

February 26, 2013

So things have been a little quiet on the photo front over here recently. I’m sure you have missed my weekly blog/facebook posts. RIGHT!????!!  Seems like we are constantly on the go and doing/visiting/playing. Instead of staying put for a bit and relaxing before wedding season kicks off I have been squeezing in every coffee date or play date that comes our way and traveling every weekend to visit family or friends. AND WE ARE HAVING SOOOOO MUCH FUN!!!! Daisy is growing into the sweetest little girl right before our eyes and we are doing our best to keep up with her. All of these are shot from my iphone.

I have been working also. Promise.  I actually have a bunch of engagement sessions to share as well as a couple of personal creative projects I have been working on.  PS. Daylight savings is in less than two weeks!!!! :))))
