I {erica} have been DYING to blog about these bridals since the day we went hiking. YES! i said hiking. Along with a few bridesmaids and her mother, Miranda and I went up to a beautiful waterfall in the mountains for her bridal session. It was breathtaking! Miranda & Tyler Rowe were married this past weekend and now I can finally post her bridals! Congratulations to you both!

Bridals on the Rock

Posted on May 10, 2010

Angela was such a brave bride! She wanted pictures on the rock, but boy did we get a chilly day! It was worth it, though.

We stopped in Blowing Rock for a few. Love all of the orange accents!

I think she looks so regal and distinguished in this image.

And the rock…gorgeous and breathtaking!

Well I can finally share these beautiful images now that LeAnne and Scott have tied the knot! LeAnne is a true beauty…she is one of those girls that just glow from the inside out. She has a great personality and from the moment I met her I immediately felt a bond with her. I met her hubby Scott years ago at a camp with both worked with and I am so happy that he has found such a great life partner! I wish both of you the best for all the years to come!

Peacock Blue

Posted on March 17, 2010

It looks like this week is bridal week! I am loving posting all of these fun bridals…what fun ladies I have had the opportunity to work with! Amanda had peacocks as her theme for her wedding and she carried it through all way down to her toes. She is so cute and stylish! Here are a few from her session.

When shooting bridals on location you never know what is going to be yelled out by a passer by…especially in Catawba County! I don’t remember what this guy said, but we both laughed the rest of the session over it!

Anthropologie Inspired Bridals

Posted on March 15, 2010

I LOVE receiving my anthro magazine every month…not only is the clothing inspiring, but the photographs are gorgeous. Great locations, beautiful muted tones…I could go on and on. Well I took that inspiration when I approached these bridals and I think the results turned out perfect. I am so excited to share these!

Sara

Posted on June 23, 2009

This past Saturday I had the privilege of documenting the beautiful (but hot!) wedding for Sara and Adam. She was absolutely gorgeous from the outside in…really couldn’t ask for a sweeter, down-to-earth bride to work with. Here is a quick look from her bridal session. Images from their wedding to come soon!

Shannon

Posted on October 1, 2008

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Shannon. She got married not that long ago. Unfortunately I was already booked and couldn’t shoot her wedding, but we did manage to get together for a bridal session. She came all the way from Baton Rouge, leaving the flood behind her only to be greeted with monsoon weather the day of our shoot! But it worked out and we managed to get some nice shots. It even cleared up enough to go outside for a few.

This home belonged to her grandparents and several generations before that so it meant a lot to her to be able to do the portraits here. This was her grandmother’s sitting room.

She is in veterinarian school and loves animals so we found a horse that was willing to cooperate!

Kristen Saine

Posted on March 18, 2008

On Saturday Kristen Shook became Kristen Saine! It was a beautiful wedding and no detail was left out! The weather could have been better, but the rain let up just in time to do some fun outside portraits. You will get to see those soon, but first I thought I would share her bridal portraits. She is just so beautiful and we had a great time doing these despite the cold and snow!

Well she got married this weekend so I can finally share the images! We had so much fun shooting this bridal session. We started off at Rock Barn Golf and Spa and shot a few pictures around the course. And closer to sunset we moved to a field that had already been harvested for the winter. There were so many great colors there…browns, gold, greens…and her bouquet added a lovely pop of red. The field was just off of a major road so we had many honks, congratulatory cheers, some warnings (i.e. “Don’t do it!”), and then some that just didn’t even make sense (”Hey, outside girl!”). So much fun!

Here are a few favorites from the day:
