Charlotte NC Wedding Photographer

The bridal season has officially kicked off…and what a way to do so on April 4th over at the historic Lake Lure Inn! Beth and Chris said their, “I do’s” in a mountainous fashion, surrounded by an intimate seventy or so guests.

Because we have embarked on this busy time of year, I’ve decided to keep the writing to a minimum (like it wasn’t already…hehe…dudes, I can’t write…I’m a visual storyteller!).

From the bottom of my heart – I thank the two of them. Their love for one another is evident and I’m tickled pink (actually, sage and powder blue…eww, I made a funny!) to have been part of their day.

Be sure to click the image below for their slideshow. Beth and Chris asked their good friend to sing We Are Man and Wife by Michelle Featherstone (my website song!) during the Blending of the Sand. Great job, Lauren AND thank YOU for introducing me to this F-A-B couple!! Muah!

Here is a little personal snippet from our Palm Coast get-a-way. I’m dedicating this blog to my Honky-Tonk Granny! She was an instrumental figure in my upbringing and one of the dearest loves of my life. Clearly you can tell…she is FULL OF SPIRIT!!! Even though she will probably never see this post (unless I can coerce her over the phone to get to a computer), I still want to say, “I love you, Granny!”

My baby girl, Addyson.

Bubba-wubba, Bray!

A few Easter details that my family put together…they went ALL OUT!

And they called it puppy love…

Meet Chris…a Veterinarian. Meet Lindsey…a chic, uptown girl with country roots. Here is how it played out – girl has puppy, boy takes care of puppies, boy/girl meet because of puppy and the rest is history!

I was overjoyed when Lindsey was receptive to shooting at Coyote Joe’s. You see, while it is extremely exciting for me to play with lighting and shoot in and around new locations, Lindsey grew up in this bar. Her father (along with a partner) have owned the establishment since 1991. I was in awe at first step. Immediately, I was drawn back to Texas and felt a little shimmer of being back in the Stockyards and two-stepping across that Billy Bob dance floor. Gosh…I really miss Texas! Anyway, I could have photographed the two of them there ALL DAY!

Thank you so much, Linds and Chris…I can’t wait for June 6th! XOXO
