Charlotte, NC, December Wedding // Derek+Kaleigh

With Derek in the Navy, he and Kaleigh decided to get married in May, directly after his graduation. Surrounded by their closest friends and family, they exchanged their vows and moved to Florida to begin their life together!

Their December wedding and reception was a beautiful vow renewal and celebration! This wedding is yet another one where God miraculously cleared the storms for the majority of the portraits! We were so grateful for small blessings like weather changes, and for the joy of telling their wedding day story through images.

Joyful Barn Wedding, Charlotte, NC // Jackson+Kayla

7 years. That’s how long they waited to become husband and wife. Everyone at the wedding was already friends, so the celebration was next level!

Jack and Kayla, it is obvious that you are both dearly loved by your friends and family, and you’ve begun your marriage with an incredible support system.

From the vibrant florals to the tears of joy and the most active dance floor we’ve ever seen at a wedding - we thoroughly enjoyed being a part of capturing your wedding day!

Marianna, 17 Years Old // Portraits

Happy 17th Birthday, Marianna! We look forward to your birthday shoot every year and seeing what theme you choose! And this year definitely didn’t disappoint!

You are officially smarter than me in many ways…starting with technology. You are now my go-to person when I have questions! I have LOVED watching you develop your own passions and hobbies, especially since it’s so different than my own!

The Colonnade at Revolution Mill Wedding // Daniel+Monica

Tender, emotional, happy, classy, and fun - these would be words that I’d use to describe Daniel and Monica’s wedding day! Their first look was so sweet, and their last dance before their sparkler exit were two favorite moments from the day.

ALSO. IT SNOWED DURING THEIR PORTRAITS!

It was magical, but also extremely cold! Everyone was such troopers!

Thank you for trusting us to capture your wedding day - all the best to you both!

Rolling Hill Farms, Monroe, NC, Wedding // Andrew+Bethany

My sister is a married woman! Their wedding was absolutely beautiful, God-honoring, and fun! Andrew and Bethany live in Utah, so we’ll definitely miss them here in Charlotte!

Andrew and Bethany are perfect for each other - they are completely themselves together and have spent the last several years traveling with a musical evangelistic team all over the USA. They know each other pretty well by this point, and we all couldn’t be happier for them. :)

Colonel Francis Beatty Park Maternity Session // Will+Lauren

Will and Lauren are expecting their first baby very soon, and we LOVED getting to spend some time with them, just catching up and taking some maternity photos! Their dog, Izzie, even made it in some pictures at the end!

We shot their engagement session and wedding back in 2016, only a few months after we were married. It’s so special to continue documenting life events for our couples!

Marianna, 16 Years Old // Portraits

Happy Sweet 16, Marianna! This summer was so HOT and BUSY, so we’re a few months late…but extended birthdays are always the best, right?!

Birthday photoshoots have been a tradition for many years, and it’s been a treat to watch her grow up! Every year, the photoshoot is personalized. This year, she chose an uptown Charlotte location with a view of the skyline. We LOVED shooting in Charlotte and had such a great time together!

Utah Proposal and Engagement With a View // Andrew+Bethany

The post you’ve all been waiting for!!! Andrew and Bethany’s PROPOSAL and ENGAGEMENT photos!

We made the trip to Utah to surprise my (Jennifer’s) sister, Bethany, and to take some photos of them! We’ve been a part of all of my siblings proposals, and we didn’t want to miss this one!

The surprise was a huge success, and we’re so glad that we could be there.
