ana+dara :: in love :: winston-salem lifestyle photographer

When Ana contacted me a few months ago wanting some portraits of her and her new husband who were married last fall, I was completely on board. Ana came to me with an idea of shooting for a princess theme. We wanted to keep it very whimsical and glamorous - kind of a modern, grown-up version of a fairytale - and I am ecstatic with the way the images turned out.

Spring House Restaurant in Winston-Salem was so kind to allow us to use their space, and their outdoor courtyard area with it's mix of the natural elements in the midst of a more urban area is just lovely - almost like a secret garden in the city.

We started off the afternoon with a few casual photos of Ana and Dara - just as they are...

I absolutely ADORE Ana's dress, and she looked truly stunning (just like a princess) in it!

These final three images may be my absolute favorites from the entire day. When Ana twirled in her dress, she looked like a giddy little girl playing dress up in her mother's closet, and I am in LOVE with the lighthearted, joyous feeling that brought to the photos.

ashleigh+lemar :: in love :: winston-salem lifestyle photographer

Just a couple of months ago, I had the great pleasure of photographing Ashleigh and LeMar's Greensboro wedding. Even before their wedding, we had been planning this autumn portrait session, and I was thrilled to get the chance to capture these two in all their newly married bliss. All too often, after the wedding is over, couples forget the importance of capturing all the life in between marriage and babies, so I'm overjoyed that Ashleigh and LeMar have this really special time in their life documented through images.

I photographed them at the always lovely Old Salem in Winston-Salem, and just loved Ashleigh's outfit choices. These two are full of so much love, life, and laughter... aren't they just precious?!
