JANELLE BRIDAL: UNVEILED!

Janelle is such a beautiful lady and her style is right up my alley! But above all, she is a delightful and FUN person to be around, which makes my job more pleasurable, and in turn, helps me create better work. I'm absolutely thrilled with this session and so happy to have met and worked with Janelle. She married the love of her life, Tim, last weekend in Charlotte (it was MAGICAL), so here are my favorites from her bridal session at The Duke Mansion -- complete with giant balloons and vintage props. The rain couldn't hold us down! : )

Y'all, she MADE her bouquet from peonies she bought at the local farmer's market. LOVE!

Love the pop of color in her Tory Burch shoes!

BETH BRIDAL: UNVEILED!

Beth, who also happens to be my cousin, got married last weekend (so happy for her & Mark!), so I can share some of my faves from her bridal session last month. She's a beauty! Makeup and hair by Kymm of Who's the Fairest? : )

And here's the one she chose to display at the reception:

BETH + KATIE: BRIDALS

Just a few previews of some gorgeous bridal shoots I did last weekend. Stay tuned for their unveiling after they get married in the coming months!

LAUREN: BRIDAL

Just a little preview from my bridal shoot last weekend with Lauren - loved her shoes! : ) More to come after she gets married in late October...

LAURA BRIDAL: UNVEILED!

If you read my blog regularly, you may remember these sparkly Enzo shoes in a teaser post... Those cute heels belong to Laura, and she married her love this past weekend! I am finally able to share her bridal session magic. We did the shoot in Waxhaw, North Carolina where her parents live. Her dad is a pilot, so we had fun incorporating his plane into some shots, and the thunderstorms that day produced some pretty incredible clouds. Enjoy the beautiful Mrs. Xanders! The first one she chose to display as her canvas:

I had to grab a shot of this cute little Dachshund wandering around the small runway where we were shooting:

Towards the end of the shoot, we did a few shots of Zum and Laura's pup, Finley, and she ended up framing one for him as part of his wedding gift. So sweet!
