These two just got hitched a few weeks ago. I’ve known Clay since we were in diapers hussling trapper-keepers and nike pumps. The least I could do for the ole chap is shoot some Engagement photos for them. This was a short session, just walking around the expansive North End of Wrightsville Beach, NC, in the shadows of Shell Island Resort. We hung out in dunes, walked the shoreline & ended up in the marsh. Here’s what we got. We were counting on a good sunset to cap off the session, that didn’t come to fruition, but I think we still came away with some winners. Being a groomman in their wedding, I wasn’t able to shoot their wedding images for them, but I did manage to obscurely follow them around shooting some video, you can find that final video at the bottom of this post. Might have to add video to my wedding services…. Stay tuned. Cheers.
Dan & Jessica are from Ohio. Jessica has been vacationing on Pleasure Island for many years now, and since her first visit, she knew it was the perfect place to get married. I can’t blame her. These two were a blast to work with, Dan had us all cracking up the whole time and it really helped bring out those great, natural smiles you’ll see below. Their whole family was in town vacationing and both Dan & Jessica’s mothers joined us as we toured around the scenic areas of Fort Fisher for their engagement session. Can’t be happy enough to shoot their wedding in March of next year.

Well, wedding season it officially in full swing here in Southeastern North Carolina. The temperatures are warming, the flowers are blooming and the tourists are beginning to filter in. This first post is from Scott & Lindsey’s engagement session down at Fort Fisher, NC. After a couple reschedules and a week of unpromising weather, we finally managed to nail down a day with perfect conditions. Lindsey made some awesome props for their Save the Date cards, matching the rustic theme of their wedding. They even brought along their pooch Nolan for a handful of portraits. Here’s a little taste of what we got. Can’t wait to shoot their wedding in October. I’ll have some pretty steady content here on the blog in the next few months.

This is another shoot I had before Christmas. Danny and Brittany are from Sunset Beach but wanted to have their engagement at Fort Fisher. We experienced all kinds of weather during this session; Sun, Clouds, Rain, Wind, Cold. But we made the best of it and got some great images. Brittany made some DIY save the date signs out of some wood lettering, which turned out to be a great prop for their session. I’ll look forward to shooting their wedding in a few months at Sunset Beach, NC!
