We are super excited about spending the day with this sweet couple tomorrow! They will get married at Chetola Resort in beautiful Blowing Rock NC. We shot their engagement this past Spring in the Blue Ridge Mountains and even the fog makes beautiful images. See you both tomorrow! Much Love. Ryan and Joy

Today the weather was perfect in our NC Mountains. We had a full day planned and that included crouching around in the woods like tigers to catch a marriage proposal. Our littles went with us because we had plans to take them to Tweetise after the shoot. Taking our kids to sessions is definitely not the norm but Ryan insisted they would do great, and they did awesome! After our lunch picnic we placed them where at least one of us could see them but be sure they were out of site of Jack and Emily. These kids took it so serious they whispered for 40 minutes even when we said we will tell you when you have to be quiet. They were part of the day so we had to include them in some of these images =). Ryan placed himself in a rhododendron bush with a camo net over his face and body. I got so tickled at him (picture below). We separated so we would be sure to have different angles depending on where Jack stopped. When I heard Emily's voice coming I got all excited...I love surprises! These kind of images are a lot of times our favorite! Real moments. Real Emotions. Once we got the proposal and came out of hiding, we went back to where Emily's parents were grilling out. Congratulations you two! We are excited for you both!! MUCH love.
We had so much fun with Kimberly and Stanton for their engagement session. Stanton loves to fish so we incorporated a little bit of mountains and of course the water for their session! Tomorrow is the big day and its going to be awesome. Look forward to seeing you two beautiful people very soon! Congratulations!!
Yesterday was Nathan and Marcy's wedding day at Gambill Farms!! Eeeeeek! We absolutely love these two. We met Marcy several years back when we shot her sister Megan's wedding. This family we truly love. So many of our clients turn friends and its such a awesome feeling. For their engagement session we wanted to incorporate Nathan's love for music and just being outdoors. A rustic laid back feel. Enjoy! 
Carrie and Sam's engagement session was the perfect Winter shoot! Sometimes we have visions for shoots and it takes patience to get what we want =). After Carrie and I scheduled and rescheduled to choose the perfect day! This session was filled with a lovely cold day, loads of snow, lots of love and tons of fun! Check out their engagement session below AND featured in the January issue of Carolina Bride magazine!! We were so glad Carolina Bride loved it just as much as we did.
