brooke + adam // wedding . outer banks . duck nc

Brooke & Adam came all the way from the UK to celebrate their special day with their closest friends & family & we were so glad they asked us to be a part of it! Though we had never met in person (& hadn't even spoken over the phone due to the long distance), Brooke & Adam were such sweet, fun, down-to-earth people that they felt more like old friends than people we were meeting for the first time. :)




Brooke & Adam had by far one of the sweetest, most emotion-filled ceremonies that we have witnessed. Seriously, have you ever seen such a happy, excited couple? You can tell these two are crazy about each other. So awesome.









Brooke & Adam stuck around for some photos together on the beach after the ceremony. They are so cute together - they were just too easy to photograph!










The beautiful bride.


Loved watching the sweet interactions between Adam & his son. How adorable is this series?! And P.S. - I am in love with Gene & Adam's suits!



Brooke's sister, Briana, is a wedding planner with [ Nouvelle Weddings ] & put together the lovely details of Brooke & Adam's day with the help of [ Great Cakes ], bouquets (at top of post) by [ The Embellishers ], catering by [ Outer Banks Grocery Stockers Chef Services ], & some fantastic live music by guitarist [ Rich Barry ].









Love this one of the boys eyeing the cake. :)






Brooke & Adam finally took a moment to themselves & walked on the beach at sunset. The day could not have ended more beautifully.

krissy + bret // wedding . raleigh nc

Remember Krissy & Bret from their fun, doggy-filled [ engagement session ] last year? We shot their wedding recently & had equally as much fun - though we definitely missed having their two adorable beagles along this time! ;)


Krissy & Bret had a really sweet ceremony at [ Jones Chapel ] at Meredith College.


We explored the grounds of [ Meredith College ] with the wedding party for a few shots after the ceremony - what a gorgeous campus! Loved these grassy stairs at the [ McIver Amphitheater ].











The reception was at the [ North Carolina Museum of History ] in downtown Raleigh (love the planes hanging from the ceiling in the lobby!). Krissy & Bret's cake was by [ Sweet Memories Bakery ] out of Apex, with catering by [ Catering by Design ], & music by Randy Bennett of [ Joe Bunn DJ Company ].




The bouquets & floral arrangements were by [ Fresh Affairs ], who always does an amazing job. Krissy put together all the rest of the gorgeous details herself, & did such a great job! Loved their "logo" & all the detail she put into the paper goods. Though Gabbie & Foster weren't able to make it to the wedding, they did get to make an appearance on the table cards. ;)


I have always thought it would be fun to do a ring shot on one of the statues in front of the museum - finally got my chance. :)





Thanks again for everything guys!!
