Emily & Michael / Asheville / Session

Well this was fun! A couple weeks ago (as followers of my main blog may remember), Emily and Michael, Liza the dog, and I spent a few hours wandering the NC Arboretum and the streets of Asheville while shooting some casual engagement photos. Off the top of my head I recall high fives, a short staring contest, mild leaping, piggy back rides, and lots of happy smiles. It was a great shoot and I truly appreciated Emily and Michael's ability to interpret the vague "directions" I shouted out while shooting. On top of that Liza the dog might be one of the most well behaved dogs to ever grace the streets of Asheville...and that's saying something considering what a huge dog town it is. Next up: Big Day, Claxton Farm, friends and family, toasts and happy tears, dancing and laughter. I can't wait!

The Bloom Room / Asheville / Vendor

Yesterday was a good day. I had an email sitting in my inbox from Stacey, owner of The Bloom Room, requesting some images of her beautiful floral designs from Leah and Brock's wedding at Claxton Farm and the second I sent those over I rushed downtown to catch up with Leah herself who was in town for a couple days. Things like this always make me feel like I'm doing something right. Thanks to you both!

Leah & Brock / Highland Brewing / Asheville / Session

When Leah told me she was interested in including her dad's local brewery in her engagement session with Brock I couldn't wait to start. As much as I enjoy our beautiful mountains here in Asheville the prospect of shooting in a giant industrial space seemed like the perfect location for something different. Leah and Brock were all star money right off the bat so I just chased them around and gave them space. 

Obviously I can't wait for the wedding! Ceremony at Claxton Farm and reception at Highland Brewing.
