Last Spring, Neil reached out to me after finding my photos online as he wanted to plan a surprise proposal to his girlfriend Larissa! I was so excited and honored to help him plan and capture this moment. What I loved most was that he planned to make this happen at the Magnolia Plantation and […]

Camp North end in Charlotte has become one of my favorite locations for photo sessions! I love the colorful, industrial, eclectic vibe of the place — and not to mention — there are some great artists and food vendors there. As we walk around, there seems like endless spots for creative shots. I also love […]

Being surrounded in dreamy, twinkling lights during the holiday season has become one of my favorite things I look forward to, and getting to photograph my clients in them makes it all the more special. I’m sharing my top favorite places in North Carolina with fantastic […]

This past year of 2021 (which FLEW by!) we did something new, which was book more sessions in any holiday lights we could find! I loved it. Being surrounded in dreamy lights during the holiday season has become one of my favorite things I look forward to. When Autumn hits, I usually have a bucket […]

Hey guys! I’m back at it, updating the blog a bit and thought I’d share something old, yet something very new to many. It may be a little sappy, but it’s super sweet! March 9th in 2013 was a special day because I was completely clueless and shocked when my, now husband, proposed to me […]

Aren’t Julie and August just the cutest together?! I enjoyed driving to Clemson, SC to meet these two for our fun engagement session. It had been a long time since I’d visited this beautiful place, and it was sort of a halfway meeting point for all of us as they made a long drive too. […]

We made the drive to Georgia earlier this Spring to meet Moriah and Stefan for a relaxed, laid back engagement session. They suggested Savannah Rapids as a neat spot that they loved, and we included their dogs in the cutest way. I’m glad we met online earlier and were able to do a photo session […]

These two are SO cute together aren’t they!? We had the best time roaming around the beautiful campus of Duke University, Phoenix’s alma mater. The amazing architecture paired with this stunning couple made for wonderful photos for sure! Can’t wait for their wedding day. Also seen on The Carolinas Magazine!

I really enjoyed shooting here! If you know me, you know I love florals and a nice garden location. When Katherine and Chris suggested the lovely Reynolda Gardens in North Carolina, I was excited to explore there. These two were so cute together between laughs, kisses, twirls, and dips. Engagement sessions should be fun! I […]

Aren’t they adorable?! I was thrilled when Ashley found me through Instagram! Shane and Ashley are a beautiful couple, and I’m grateful they trusted me to find a couple of dreamy spots for our small photo session together. I just love the Carolinas in the Spring time, and I equally enjoy capturing genuine couples in […]
