This was one of those emails that I had to read twice. The Southern Weddings gals emailed me in the spring of last year and asked if I wanted to take their team photos. WHAT?! Me?! Oh my gosh! YESSS! My answer is YES! I was so honored! Michael and I drove down to Chapel Hill back in April and absolutely loved our time with these amazing women. Their love for their work and for one another is incredible.
How one group of women, co-workers, creatives and influencers can be so equally genuine and gorgeous just baffles me! These sweet friends move mountains every year creating Southern Weddings Magazine. V8 is probably my favorite issue yet! Not only are the shoots stunning but BOKEH MADE IT INTO AN ARTICLE!!! Our little fluffy fur baby has officially had his first debut in a wedding magazine and I may have squealed! Not only did Bokeh Boy get a sweet little feature on Page 269, you can also see some KJ images on page 275, 252, 7,8,9 and 25!! Ah! What a fun surprise!!
Southern Weddings Gals: Thank you for trusting us with your portraits! Our time with you was a highlight of our YEAR!! We love and respect you so much!!!
We loved celebrating with all of the SW family in Chapel Hill this past Thursday evening. It’s always a fast trip! Buddy and Jill drove down with us. 3 hours down, 3 hours back. It was a whirlwind trip but we made great memories and we never regret our time with these amazing people!!!
Here’s a little peek of a few of my favorite pages of V8! AND I’m sharing some of my favorite images from our shoot together!!
Another highlight of 2015, getting to know this awesome guy!! Eric shot the gorgeous cover of V8!! Loved seeing sweet friends… we just needed like another 3 hours with them! It’s such a tease!! :)
And here are some of my FAVORITES from my shoot with these gorgeous ladies!!! It you can’t tell, we had a blast together!! Enjoy!!

Whether you’re brand new to business or have been in business for quite a while, this brand new Youtube video is for you! Michael and I, early on in our business, struggled to relinquish tasks to other professionals outside of our business. Really…. It was more of MY STRUGGLE than his.
Welcome to December’s Student Spotlight!! It’s a new month and we have new photographers to celebrate!! I’m so thankful for them and for their willingness to give of their time and share their stories!!!
This shoot was supposed to happen about a month earlier on the exact day that leftover rains from a hurricane swept through Washington. I’m so thankful we rescheduled! Our reschedule date was absolute perfection! The temperature, the glow, the locations…. it was beautiful! Tyler and Abby’s outfit choices were wonderful and the leaves were full of color and still hanging on the trees.
When Michael and I were in our early years of dating, I would go on trips with his family for Thanksgiving and summer trips to West Virginia and I spent time with his cousins! “Bri-Bri” was so little! He’s the youngest of all of the cousins and it’s crazy to think that he’s old enough to be getting MARRIED! He’s actually older than we were when we got married!! We have known Shannon for years and we were THRILLED when we heard that Brian had proposed because we always hoped that would happen!!!
Maybe it’s just me…. but I feel like this fall is FLYING by! It seems like just the other day that I was sharing about three more KJ Students who are doing amazing things in their businesses! Well, this weeks marks the beginning of November and I have three amazing students to introduce you too!!!
This session is beautiful… if I do say so myself! It’s colorful, it’s vibrant, it’s full of joy and it’s also LONG! It’s a lengthy post because I just had so many favorites and I absolutely loved my time with these two last week! Paige, like a lot of our brides, is a photographer herself! She’s talented, full of life, energetic and creative. I felt the pressure to take this location that she knows well and make it look fresh and knew to her!! Nikhil is an audio engineer for Apple (which we think is fascinating!) and despite hardly ever wearing a suit, he wore one for Paige and made all of her outfit dreams come true!
