A few flights later, and I was in Boise, Idaho. A beautiful city surrounded by ranges and mountains that make the whole area quite stunning. Michael and I grew up together in Missouri and I am so happy for him and his new bride, Grace! Thank you for allowing me to capture and to be a part of your joyful day! - Jon
Read MoreWildflower Mountain Wedding // Chad & Bailey
This sweet couple. It really was an honor to shoot this wedding for Chad and Bailey. I could tell from the moment I met them and their families that they have a very special bond. Not often (or ever) have I seen the Maid of Honor be a sibling to the groom, and the Best Man a sibling to the bride!
Read MoreThe Venue at Talbert Pointe Wedding // Mike & Ana
Mike is a friend and coworker, and it was a pleasure to be a part of his and Ana’s wedding day. The original plan included a different location with an outdoor ceremony. In typical North Carolina fashion, and what seemed like 14 out of 15 weekends of rain, the whole event was switched to indoors.
We took advantage of the brief opportunity to take some outdoor portraits during the light mist. Mike and Ana were easy going and adventurous enough to venture outside and created some fun, memorable, and timeless portraits!

The Gospel was shared, the wedding party wore comfortable (and fun!) Vans shoes, the dance floor was full, they were surrounded by supportive family and friends, and this happy couple was married on this beautiful, sunny day!
It is always an honor to be a part of documenting weddings for couples who love the Lord and desire to honor Him with their relationship and marriage. Jonathan and Bethany were exactly that.
We are excited for you both to experience the goodness of God through marriage as you learn to trust Him and follow Him in new ways!
Read MoreHyatt Centric SouthPark Wedding // David & Dana
Pops of red, burgundy, purple, and pink were scattered throughout the florals and beautiful bridesmaid’s dresses, creating a theme that resembled a colorful, spring garden. The gloomy, wet weather forecast shifted that morning to partly cloudy and breezy. What a treat it is to venture outside and explore unsuspecting locations that create beautiful and vibrant portraits! David and Dana’s wedding day was joyous, relaxed, and beautiful at the Hyatt Centric SouthPark.

With Derek in the Navy, he and Kaleigh decided to get married in May, directly after his graduation. Surrounded by their closest friends and family, they exchanged their vows and moved to Florida to begin their life together!
Their December wedding and reception was a beautiful vow renewal and celebration! This wedding is yet another one where God miraculously cleared the storms for the majority of the portraits! We were so grateful for small blessings like weather changes, and for the joy of telling their wedding day story through images.

Read MoreThe Colonnade at Revolution Mill Wedding // Daniel+Monica
Tender, emotional, happy, classy, and fun - these would be words that I’d use to describe Daniel and Monica’s wedding day! Their first look was so sweet, and their last dance before their sparkler exit were two favorite moments from the day.
ALSO. IT SNOWED DURING THEIR PORTRAITS!
It was magical, but also extremely cold! Everyone was such troopers!
Thank you for trusting us to capture your wedding day - all the best to you both!

Read MoreBentonville, Arkansas, Wedding // David+Mandie
Have you ever gotten DOUSED in LAVENDER? Like down your clothes, and embedded in your hair? Yeah, me neither. But that should give you an idea of how excited David and Mandie’s friends and family were to send them off to their honeymoon after their wedding! Be sure to stay to the end of the post to see what I mean!

Read MoreIntimate Asheville Wedding at Homewood // Matthew+Kristen
Elegant, timeless, romantic: these are the words that come to mind when describing Matthew and Kirsten’s Asheville wedding at Homewood! This venue looks like a castle from the outside!
There was rain on and off the entire day, but God was so good to clear up the weather so most of the portraits could be taken outside. We were so grateful! When we ran outside for photos, Kristen was such a pro and basically a model. She NAILED IT and was so comfortable in from of the camera! She and Matthew made our job so easy!
