How beautiful is this Wrightsville Manor Wedding???  From the first details to the rained-out-but-still-amazing exit, this wedding was perfection.  Wrightsville Manor is is one of our favorite venues to photograph weddings, and as you’ll see, it’s no surprise why.  It makes for a beautiful backdrop for either indoor or outdoor weddings and is just dripping with southern charm and character.  Special thanks to Bubbly Events for coordinating the day and making the whole celebration seamless and full of love and laughter!  Big congratulations to the beautiful bride and awesome groom Allison and Blake- you guys were so much fun, and it was an honor to be a part of this day!

This Abilena Plantation wedding in New Bern, NC was absolutely beautiful from start to finish.  Shauna with Shauna Loves Planning designed and coordinated this picture perfect day, and it couldn’t have been for two more deserving people.  Alex and Eli were so much fun to work with, and right from there engagement session I knew their wedding was going to be a blast.  Their wedding was full of southern charm, from the historic plantation venue, to the color palette, to the grooms suit choice and everything in between.  Scroll down to check out my favorites from this amazing Abilena Plantation wedding day.

 

 

If anyone knows me, they know that Northern California, and Lake Tahoe wedding photography especially, holds a special place in my heart.  So I was thrilled when Bailey and Ryan asked me to photograph their wedding there.  At the time of their wedding, the Mariposa Wildfire was burning close to Yosemite and the whole area was hazy- so the typical bright blue Tahoe sky was hidden.  But it also gave the surrounding mountains and meadows a soft, beautiful feel you don’t usually see in the high Sierra.  All in all it was an incredible day, the wedding was beautiful and the celebration was a party I won’t soon forget!  Congratulations Bailey and Ryan- you guys were so much fun to work with!

 

 

 

 

This Airlie Gardens wedding was perfection.  Carly and Dillon were so much fun to work with all the way from their hot air balloon engagement session (here!) to this gorgeous southern garden wedding day.  Airlie Gardens is one of Wilmington’s best wedding venues if you are looking for the quintessential southern wedding, and with the help of Social Butterfly Events for design and coordination, this couple did it right!  Congratulations Carly and Dillon- Your day was a perfect example of why I love photographing weddings in Airlie Gardens!
