Stephanie and Aldo Engagement
Aldo and Stephanie are getting married in just a few weeks! I’m excited to be able to photograph their May wedding. I wanted to get these up quickly so they could enjoy them before their big day.
Thanks for looking!





















Jeremy and Elizabeth
Jeremy and Elizabeth are such beautiful people. I grew up with Jeremy, spending so much time with his family. (I took pictures of his niece recently.) Jeremy’s always been like a brother to me growing up and I was so happy when him and Elizabeth started dating six years ago. They got engaged this year and are planning a wedding for summer of 2012. They contacted me about a month ago and wanted me to take some photos of them to celebrate their six year anniversary of being together.
We drove out into the country in Monroe area of North Carolina. Elizabeth had some friends that kindly let us shoot on their lovely piece of land. It was beautiful light and a glorious evening. We found some great texture, old cars, and some sweet lookin’ vines.
I hope you enjoy these!!
Jeremy and Elizabeth I sure love you guys!






































Look closely you can see the full moon…

Joe and Angela Gerics
I have known Joe since I was born. His family has been super close to our family for forever. I remember having nerf gun wars in Joe’s basement with my brother and his brother, Steve. We also played 007 golden eye till late into the night, when our parents would talk for hours.
I met Angela on a mission trip back in 2002. We spent about four weeks together that summer, and we did just about everything together. I laugh hearing Angela laugh, it cracks me up.
Angela and Joe met on a mission trip to the United Kingdom a few years later. They met, fell in love, and married all within a year. Joe is a history teacher in a high school and Angela is in college working hard. They both are from up north and I’m hoping that the Carolina sunshine might persuade them to move a bit closer.
I so love them, I couldn’t be happier when Joe and Angela fell in love. It is absolutely perfect.
Angela emailed me a few months ago and told me that her and Joe were going to be in North Carolina for a wedding and they wanted to see if I could take some fun romantic photos of them. I was super excited!
I found an old burnt down camp ground that I pass everyday and behind it was tall grass, and on a bit of a hill. We started here and ended at the peach orchards by my house.
I’m excited to share these!
I love you Angela and Joe!


























Abraham & Rebekah
So the story goes that Rebekah grew up with me in children’s church when I was like four years old. Neither of us remember one another. My parents have spent a lot of time with this couple, and really love them. Rebekah facebooked me one afternoon and asked if I would be wiling to take some pictures of Abraham for an instrumental album that he is currently working on. We both have mutual friends (+my parents) and I got excited to do this for them. He’s a guitarist, and Rebekah, is a teacher. They just recently found out they are expecting a baby! Really beautiful, sweet couple… I really enjoyed this shoot.
They drove from Morganton, NC area. We met a Amélie’s french bakery in Noda, Charlotte. And then drove down to the small area of Noda where there is so much colour and texture to photograph. I loved it!
I also did some photos of Rebekah… (she is so lovely!)
I had a great time getting to know them!
Enjoy!




























Elysse & Michael Engagement
I’ve known Elysse since she was fourteen and I was seventeen. We met at “TheCall School” in Pasadena, CA. She has carried the most tender heart with such a grace about her for as long as I have known her. Her family is very, very dear to my heart… they’re some of my very favorite people. I’m so excited for her!
I met Michael at a coffee shop where I used to work. I got to know him better when Elysse started dating him. They are such a perfect match!
Two weeks ago when I was in Kansas City, I took them out to the Longview area. It was a lovely, windy evening. Elysse and Michael are getting married at the Longview Mansion in October.
Aren’t they such beautiful people?
