One of the things I love to take pictures of when I'm not being a wedding photographer is birds.
I enjoy birding so much that I even own another website called Birdwatchingnc.com
At Bird Watching N.C. I'm dedicated to bringing birders from all over the Tarheel state together by providing news, media, touring information and stories about all things bird watching here in North Carolina.
If you are a fellow #birdnerd I invite you to check it out!
This summer, I had the honor of photographing Cam and Kara’s wedding day at the beautiful Highgrove Estate in Fuquay Varina, North Carolina.
My second shooter and I arrived in the mid afternoon and got started capturing the couple getting ready for their ceremony with their wedding parties. The mood was relaxed and happy as we got to work.
There was plenty of time to get some candid photos of the happy moments shared between the couple and their friends as well as grabbing a few detail shots of the pretty things :)
Before too long, it was time for the ceremony to start. The weather was perfect, not to hot or cold and the lighting was nice as the sun slipped lower into the sky.
Cam and Kara’s wedding was lovely!
Starting with the tears running down Cam’s face when he first saw Kara coming up the aisle, their heartfelt ceremony was filled with emotion thus leading to some uniquely beautiful moments shared between the couple.
Once their ceremony had concluded, we grabbed some family and wedding party group photos before capturing the couples romantic portraits on the wide green lawn at the back of the venue.
These two were absolutely as sweet as could be and the way that they looked at one another melted my heart.
What an absolute joy it was to be there in those moments to capture the way that they felt for one another, side by side taking their first steps together as husband and wife!
Kara & Cameron’s wedding reception was blast to photograph! Everyone was in high spirits & having fun which made my job easy as could be. Hardly anyone spent to night staring at their phones opting instead to talk and dance with one another. Lol, these days that’s becoming somewhat of a rarity, even at a reception party!
It was really nice to be out there snapping off shots on the dance floor amid all of these wonderful happy people. So much light, color and movement all set to a loud beat, mixed with laughter with the scent of flambé doughnuts from the dessert bar wafting through the air.
At the end of the night, I left feeling profoundly grateful for my job and thankful for the joyful experiences I got to capture for Cam, Kara and their families. It’s not every day that people find a love like the one they share. I’m so glad that I got to be the one to document the day that their two lives became one.
R & S's elopement Live streamed to family and friends via Zoom at the Knightdale Station Park in Knightdale N.C.
This wedding looked a lot different than the couple originally planned for but with the impact of Covid-19 they improvised and were married via a virtual ceremony via Zoom. Happily they made the best of this beautiful day and are looking forward to celebrating their wedding day with their family and friends later this year once the lockdown restrictions are eased.
These are my favorite photos from the May 2019 production of Footloose at H.C.H.S.
It was really cool to watch my daughter and her classmates preform... I’m so happy for these kids :)
This was the second performance that I’ve attended and in addition to enjoying the proud mom moments, I used this time as an opportunity to test out the Canon 5DS in a low-lighting situation.
My goal was to push the limits of the ISO and test how good of job this camera could do (handheld no tripod).
I did not edit the photos to manipulate the stage lighting design or alter any spotlights shown on the faces of the actors.
Was just curious to see how everything would turn out under as real lighting conditions as possible.
Just a RAW to jpeg conversation under the Adobe Color preset (in Lightroom) was used along with the cropping of a few photos.
Special thanks to the students and teachers of the drama club and concert choir at Harnett Central High School.
You guys are awesome!
