Jason & Jami’s Wedding

Back in October I had the amazing honor to shoot Jami’s sister’s incredible barn wedding. Here I was super excited when Lauren approached me about shooting her sister’s small intimate December wedding ten days before Christmas. If you saw Lauren’s wedding, you saw her mom’s amazing handy work in making the reception amazing. Well… she did it again!

They chose to get married at the small St Mary’s church in uptown Charlotte. Where pink flowers were blooming all over the bushes. (Crazy for December!) The reception was in the back yard of Jami’s home. Lights decorated all the bushes and trees and shrubs, three or four chandeliers hung from trees, and a tent was pitched in the back yard. Inside the tent was the most beautiful table seating for 50ish people with china, and silver. Every plate was different. It was so incredibly beautiful. Fabulous planning.

I’ve had the best time getting to know Jami and her family the last year or so through shooting her sister’s wedding and having dinners and coffee dates with their family. I’m so glad I got to be apart of their day. I sure love all of them.

Congrats Jami & Jason!!! Love you both!

And a special amazing shout out to my second shooter and one of my closest friends, Colleen Kirk who flew in from Kansas City to help me, shoot with me and love me. ;) She fed me crackers the whole day (making me forget I was in my first trimester of pregnancy ;)

Kevin & Penni Wedding

My photographer friend Tara Mauldin invited me to second shoot a wedding in the mountains of North Carolina over Fall Peak. We drove all over the mountains trying to find where the wedding was. Our GPS took us to the top of a mountain at a dead end. We finally asked someone where we could find “The River House Bed and Breakfast”. We arrived to breathtaking beauty all around us.

The ceremony was about 50 people held underneath a giant elm tree. The view all the way around us was mountains and color. Absolutely incredible. So many details everywhere. The reception was held inside the bed and breakfast… Tara and I had so much fun photographing the day for Kevin and Penni. Beautiful wedding!
