a wedding with dancing lemur photography - amelia + colin {second shooters + photobooth}

last september i had the honor of working alongside my dear friend & colleague jenny viars of dancing lemur photography.  jenny often works as my second photographer extraordinaire, however we changed hats for amelia & colin's wedding - and what fun it was! i loved {and LOVE} working as the second photographer at weddings. it's the best - especially with jenny!

in addition to second shooting, i also set up my photobooth at the reception which was such a blast! the guests absolutely loved it - i was busy nonstop snapping away for several hours - always a great idea for any kind of event. jenny and i provided most of the props, however amelia and colin brought in a few of their own.  

southeastern center for contemporary art {secca}, located in winston-salem is where amelia & colin had their ceremony and reception. because it was raining they had to have the ceremony indoors in one of the galleries, which had great light. what a cool space! and their theme "alice's adventures in wonderland" was absolutely fabulous. 

amelia and colin chose to do a "first look" before the ceremony - i love this series of photos!  amelia & her four bridesmaids looked so gorgeous in their beautiful pale grey gowns. AND amelia's shoes - wow! their cake was so pretty & holly tate fine catering is one for the books! i will definitely remember them for future client referrals. the presentation was amazing and the food even more so. 

thank you so much jenny for giving me the opportunity to work with you again!  we are such a great team :)  i hope to "second" for you again sometime - and i know you will for me {see you in june!}

greensboro portrait photographer: nora+david's engagement session

we got together with nora and david recently at the university of north carolina greensboro's campus. the newly engaged couple met their freshmen year of college on move-in day at the coed dorms.  they have been inseparable since and are super excited about their upcoming wedding next may.

 my assistant, jenny, and i were both pleasantly surprised that the campus at uncg offered several excellent locations. neither of us had really visited the campus before, but i do know that i'll go back there again. we were also thrilled that the trees still had some fall color and that it wasn't bitter cold outside, although we had to fight the wind.

nora and david are such a delightful couple and were fun getting to know. they were so comfortable with one another and naturals around the camera. i'm so grateful to have the opportunity to have met them before their big day!  it will be here before you know it....
