Quietly dropped this Airlie engagement session on the blog a few days ago, check the highlights for the link! It’s the perfect time of year to get out for some engagement photos, reach out for availability! I’m still filling in dates for 2025 and into 2026. Lots of big changes coming to the brand at the start of the year, super excited to share those soon!

Had the pleasure to travel up to Grayson Highlands State Park a few weeks ago for an epic elopement in the park followed by an intimate reception at their cabin. Small weddings in the mountains are my favorite!

While relief and recovery efforts are well underway in Western NC, a lot of people are asking how they can help. I’m going to post a list of organizations that are actively providing the resources to those affected below. Please share and consider donating! Click the link in my bio for more links.

To make a $10 donation, text HELENE to 90999

The American Red Cross: offers food, shelter, supplies, and emotional support to victims of crisis. https://www.redcross.org/donate/donation.html/

GoFundMe: The company has its own Hurricane Relief Fund you can donate to, which provides cash grants to people who need help. https://www.gofundme.com/f/enxh8-hurricane-relief-fund

The Salvation Army: provides food, drinks, shelter, emotional and spiritual care and other emergency services to survivors and rescue workers. https://give.helpsalvationarmy.org/give/166081/#!/donation/checkout?c_src=USNhomepage&c_src2=heroImage

United Way: accepting donations to help relief efforts for both short-term issues and to continue helping residents later. https://support.unitedway.org/page/Helene

All Hands and Hearts: volunteer-based organization works alongside local residents to help by rebuilding schools, homes and other community infrastructure. https://give.allhandsandhearts.org/campaign/623237/donate#!/donation/checkout

CARE: Provides relief through emergency cash assistance to families in underserved communities. https://my.care.org/site/Donation2?44174.donation=form1&df_id=44174&mfc_pref=T&s_src=172520HH0M00&s_subsrc=FY25HURRICANEHELENEMO

As always, be careful who you’re giving money to, there are a lot of scams out there. The above links have all be vetted.

I would also encourage you to donate supplies regionally, where ever you are. I know in Wilmington alone there are dozens of businesses gathering supplies to provide to Western NC. Most physical donation locations will have a list of needed supplies. #westernNCstrong

Kind of speechless to the impact this recent storm has had on the Asheville area and really all of Western NC. Our hearts go out to anyone affected. The images I’m seeing are mind-blowing. Many are without homes, water, electricity, cell service and are essentially trapped with no way in or out.

Photographers, If you have a wedding or session you’re unable to get to, please reach out, I would be happy to help. Friends, if you need anything or even a place to stay, please reach out. 🫶🏻

Bridal sessions are a great way to give your wedding day look a test run, all while getting some awesome portraits in a relaxed setting during the best lighting of the day. Only downside is I forget to share them after the wedding day passes! Kat chose to print this image and displayed it at her reception. And I’ve got to tell you, nothing makes a photographer happier than seeing their work printed!
