Mary & Luke | Magnolia Manor Plantation Bed & Breakfast Wedding | NC Wedding Photographer

This wedding is so so special and beautiful. Mary attended a wedding at this venue when she was a young girl, and dreamt of one day getting married there. Fast forward to her adult life and SHE GETS MARRIED THERE. The sweetest little bit of fate. She and Luke are absolutely crazy for each other. Their day was in the late Fall, but temperatures barely got above 40º. Despite that, there were zero complaints, because it was just an excuse for them to cuddle more. They exude enough warmth and love to keep us all cozy <3

A few of my favorite things: 
Mary's pinky promise vows
Luke dancing back down the aisle with Mary to Hall & Oates
The venue has a chicken coop and they let us meet and pet one of the chickens
EVERYone getting down on the dance floor (and some of them singing!)
Do you see that cake setup??

Kyla & Richard | Intimate Stone Mountain Elopement | NC Elopement Photographer

Kyla and Richard are some of the sweetest souls I've had the pleasure of meeting and working with. We hiked all around Stone Mountain State Park in North Carolina, and it was COLD. But they were total troopers, hiking in their wedding clothes despite how frigid it was, and I can tell you it was so beyond worth it. They had their first look at a waterfall (yeah, I know, perfect) and exchanged vows privately as the sun set over the mountains, while the light turned from gold to purple to blue. It was one of the most beautiful sunsets I've seen. But as Levar Burton would say on Reading Rainbow, don't take my word for it...
