Sensitive, honest, respectful documentary coverage of weddings and life events. Based in Wilmington NC, available to travel everywhere.
Indian weddings have a tremendous following in photographic circles. Everyone wants to book one, and they’ll give their firstborn kid up for the opportunity. They’re legendary for the colors, the textures, the neverending dancing and the FOOD. Who wouldn’t want to be a part of that level of celebration? We have been fortunate enough to…
We’ve been crazy busy around here, between shooting, traveling, adopting a wonderful loving dog (who we’ll introduce in proper form sometime later this week, if time allows), and life-in-general… and it’s so easy for me to forget to update the website every week. So, here’s another roundup of the last few weddings we’ve shot, and…
Roshonda and Stephen. This was a FUN wedding weekend. When Roshonda first contacted me, she was stationed in Iraq and doing all of her wedding planning abroad. Needless to say, she didn’t have an easy time of it – coordinating three separate events in three different cities from a time zone I don’t even know…
The mother of the bride, in a moment of unspeakable joy, during the bride’s dance with her father. As I photographed the dance, I could almost feel their hearts swelling… I could imagine how mine will swell when I’m the mother of the bride some day in the distant future. This image, for me, is…
Blaire and Michael got married at St Mary’s Chapel in Charlotte NC. The chapel is SO cute, I’d never been there before… it’s sort of nestled right in the middle of all these off ramps and traffic, but you forget its urban setting when you’re there… it’s a great spot, I definitely recommend. The ceremony…
Remember Meg from her bridal session? Well, she married Tallon on June 28th at a cute little church in Darlington, SC. The day started out HOT, like South Carolina hot, and then it rained… the way it does in the south in the summertime. It didn’t suck, though – their reception was outdoors, but there…
Alice Ann’s bridal portrait session was the first time that I had my close friend and associate Michael shooting with me on a commissioned gig. He had been learning about exposure and lighting from me for months leading up to the session, but we hadn’t put his knowledge to the test until that day. We…
When Cathie first contacted me about her wedding, she was based in Iraq, and Rob was based stateside after having served in Iraq not long before. Until Cathie made it back to the states a month before her wedding, I was worried about her every single day. I’ve been so lucky in that I don’t…
I met Casey when we shot her bridal portrait at Orton Plantation and Gardens in Brunswick County, NC. Casey is probably the most enthusiastic, young-at-heart bride I’ve worked with in a while! She never stops smiling, and she just has this energy about her. Her bridal session was in the top 3 most fun bridal…
