On April 28th I had the pleasure of recording the wedding of Ashleigh Burton and Marshall Fields. It was a Wrightsville Beach wedding and the setting and the weather blended together to make it just a splendid day. For Ashleigh and Marshall it was a destination wedding as they and their friends and families descended on the lowlands of Southeast North Carolina from West Virginia. They were a fun couple to spend the day with and I was honored to be able to record their most special event. The wedding was orchestrated by Orchid Island Events and Brittany Koontz and her girls did not disappoint! The reception was catered by Middle Of  The Island, and Jason of Absolute Best DJ’s rocked the house! It was great afternoon and evening and here are a few shots of the day! Thanks again Ashleigh and Marshall and best of luck to you both!

 

 

 

 

I met Russ and Allison at the Holiday Inn Resort on Wrightsville Beach. They had been married in Raleigh the Saturday before we met and wanted to get some fun images in their wedding attire. I did not shoot their wedding, so this was the first time we were to meet. What a blast! They were fun and open to all suggestions, so when I suggested they get wet, there was no hesitation. The water on the island has started to cool, so it took a little adventuresome spirit to roll around in the surf. They were great and had as much fun in front of the camera as I had behind it. Here are a few of my favorites from that afternoon and I wish Russ and Allison all the best.

 

I spent October 1 with Michael and Jennifer Bell recording their wedding. It was a crisp NC Fall day in Sanford and the Bell’s and their wedding party and guests made the most of it. The wedding party was a lot of fun to spend time with and you could tell they were all best of friends. The reception rocked to the sounds of  Ryan Pflumm of SpinNC DJ’s and went well into the evening. I was glad to be a part of their day and I wish Michael and Jennifer all the best! Here are a few of the images recorded that afternoon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This past week end I had the pleasure of documenting Jennifer and Michaels wedding. It was a crisp, cool, beautiful North Carolina day and I look forward to the final image edit. The following images are a few from Jen’s Bridal session, which were taken this past June. It was not a crisp,cool day, but a typical June morning in Wilmington, NC. We spent the morning at the NC Arboretum and Jen was great, and kudo’s to her sister Rachel and her Mom, Cheryl, who assisted the future bride.

I just recently had the pleasure of shooting Katie and Shane’s wedding in Chapel Hill. They met in Europe and were originally married there, but just with his folks and hers in attendance. Shane is from Ireland and Katie is from Chapel Hill, so they decided to come back to the Hill and have a wedding ceremony and reception for all of their Stateside friends and family. It was a wonderful and fun event and I was glad to be a part of their wedding. It was a nice kick off  to the Fourth of July week end. Here are a few shots from the day.
