ENGAGEMENT | JESSICA + MICHAEL

RALEIGH ENGAGEMENT

How I met this wonderful pair was at her friend Laura’s wedding where Jessica, was a bridesmaid. We hit it off right away. At the end of the night, during the reception, she tells me she’s engaged and she was impressed watching me work all day. She mentioned wanting me to photograph her wedding, the following year. It was an exciting moment and such a compliment.

We started out with a beautiful engagement session at the Historic Yates Mill. We felt like we had the place to ourselves as we enjoyed exploring the mill. Micheal and Jessica adored romantic time together in the fields of wheat and overlooking the lake. It was such a sweet time for me to witness the love and joy between these two lovebirds. Jessica is a teacher and a detailed planner. I was thrilled to make her vision come to light, with her beaming from her engagement session images. Along with their engagement, it’s been my pleasure to be part of many steps along the way. From designing the couples Save the Dates, custom envelopes, the wedding invitations and wedding programs.

Now here we are a month away from their big day! The celebration will be held at The Meadows at Walnut Cove in Walnut Cove, NC. This gem is tucked away just south of Hanging Rock NC State Park, surrounded by hundreds of acres of privately owned land.  The 32 acres of land creates the perfect backdrop for Jessica and Michael’s wedding images.

I will forever be there to laugh with you, to lift you up when you are down and to love you unconditionally through all of our adventures in life together.

Cheers to Jessica + Michael!
