Orry+Lauren | Engagement | Southport, NC Photographer

30 Mar 2012•Engagement

I shot Orry and Lauren’s engagement session a couple weekends ago in Southport, NC. Our original plan of beginning the shoot at Orton plantation was a bust, since that place is still locked up like Fort Knox. We still managed to bag a bunch of incredible images in our short 2 session. These two were naturals making my job easy and fun. And any excuse to explore around the beautiful downtown district of Southport is a good one. I look forward to capturing Orry and Lauren’s Wedding at the Southport Community Center in May.

Misty’s Bridal Portraits | Watermark Marina | Wilmington, NC Photographer

20 Mar 2012•Bridal Portraits

James and Misty tied the knot a week ago, so I can now post some of the images we made for Misty’s bridal portraits. Since we could only schedule at noon, Misty arranged to shoot indoors because noon is not the best time to shoot outside. It worked out in our favor because it was a pretty cold and rainy day which would’ve made shooting outside impractical. We ended up at Watermark Marina, the same location of their wedding the following weekend. Here are some of what we got… I just finished up editing their wedding images, so I’ll have those up in a few days…

Alex+Kristin | Engagement | Fort Fisher, NC Photographer

25 Feb 2012•Engagement

We headed down to Fort Fisher for Alex and Kristin’s Engagement Session last Tuesday. This is one of my favorite places to shoot, I always come back with some unique images, regardless of how many times i’ve shot there. It was also my first session with the new equipment and I’m really diggin the way things are looking. I have a bridal session and another engagement session this weekend, so keep an eye out for those. Also, if you haven’t already, head over to my Facebook page and “like” it, I’ve been making it a priority to keep it up to date with my most recent work. You can access it by clicking on the Facebook tab on the left side of the blog. It was hard to narrow down the images to post for the blog cause there was so many great ones, but here are a few of my favorites. I look forward to shooting their wedding in June….

21 Feb 2012•Wedding

I finished up the photos from Joe and Keely’s Wedding at the beginning of the month. I always tell myself I’m going to just make a small post showing only a few images, but once I start making the layouts I find it hard to narrow down the ones I like the most. Anyway, here’s some of those…

Carolina Beach, NC North End Sunrise | NC Landscapes

30 Dec 2011•Landscapes

Got out before the sun came up wednesday morning to shoot the sunrise. These old jetty/pier pilings make a good foreground object. I wanted to get in the water to get a little more water movement, but the temp is down to the mid-50s. I blended exposures on the first three to spread the dynamic range a bit. Prints for all of these images can be purchased through the following link… http://prints.chriszachary.com/pleasureisland
