Natalie & Ben’s Lioncrest wedding was pure magic.
They envisioned a romantic, garden-inspired day — full of greenery, white florals, candlelight, and elegant black accents — and it all came together beautifully.
Oh! And— the espresso martini ice luge was as amazing as it sounds.
I loved capturing every part of this day — from the quiet, romantic moments to the fun moments with the bridal party…laughter and dancing carried well into the evening.

Britain and Efley’s destination wedding at Chestnut Ridge was pure mountain magic. Surrounded by friends and family who traveled from Florida, they celebrated in true style — and of course, their beloved pups Avery and Derek were right by their side. Every element tied beautifully together, from the romantic ceremony overlooking the mountains to the disco chandelier that transformed the reception into the ultimate party! Such a fun night!

What a wonderful wedding celebration for Andrei and Marina! Beautiful fall colors and an amazing group all the way from Brazil made for a perfect day at the Biltmore Estate. These two actually met on a plane — such a sweet story and the perfect beginning to their forever!

Rain couldn’t stop the joy at Amy & Carl’s wedding! The day was full of laughter, love, and unforgettable moments — but my favorite was their first family dance with their daughters, Aubrey and Piper. Watching them come together as a new family (and new sisters!) was such a touching and emotional celebration. 💕

Huge thanks to the incredible vendor team who made the day so special:

What a full-circle moment! I first photographed Buna back in 2011 for her senior portraits, and now I had the joy of capturing her engagement session with Matt at the Biltmore Estate. I cannot wait to celebrate her and Matt this spring at The Grove Park Inn!

Finally a day without rain! I had so much fun with Marina and Andrei! They are both originally from Brazil and are planning for a fall wedding at the Biltmore Estate. We decided on focusing on the gardens for our engagement session and really leaned into all the color. These two have amazing chemistry! Also… Marina in yellow? Gorgeous.

Erin’s senior session at the Biltmore Estate was a success despite the call for thunderstorms. This girl is brilliant! She graduated as Valedictorian from McDowell Early College and is headed to Georgetown University this fall! I know her mom is so proud.

Such a great engagement session with Lindsay and Victor! They wanted a mix of downtown Asheville’s urban vibe and a touch of nature—and I was more than happy to make it happen. Lindsay had a vision for some candid, paparazzi-inspired shots too, which brought such a unique and playful energy to the session.

The Watson granddaughters stole my heart last week with their sweet spirits and beautiful smiles. What made it even more meaningful was knowing their grandparents planned this as a surprise gift for their son and daughter-in-law. Haley, I hope this little sneak peek brings a smile to your face — so many more precious moments coming your way soon.

I had the best time with Ally and Michael! Favorite moment? Hands down when they read their private vows and, without knowing it, basically wrote the same thing — both reminiscing about their first date. So sweet. Also obsessed with the bright, happy colors in this one. Total June vibes! AND we lucked out with the prettiest summer sunset and I may or may not have made Ally twirl ‘til she was dizzy.
