We had plans to shoot at two different locations along the parkway, but those plans changed pretty quick after we realized it was peek leaf season in the mountains of North Carolina when we did their engagement […]

Ally and Drew’s wedding was a beautiful fall day at The Heritage Barn in Conover, NC. The weather forecast was all over the place for their wedding day! The first of the week it said rain, then no rain! It ended up be a beautiful sunny day for their wedding. We had a little cloud […]

I met Brian more than 10 years ago when his family started showing goats with my brother in 4H.

We had the whole place to ourselves! Stephanie choose to do a […]
