Jacklin + Bryant

Jacklin and I graduated high school together. She and I were very close friends throughout our school years. She was the girl every other girl wanted to be. She was beautiful, sweet, and talented. When we graduated we moved to different areas and we've rarely seen each other. Needless to say I was so excited when she contacted me about a year ago to photograph her wedding. I mean, I was getting the chance to photograph one of the most beautiful couples ever. :) Jacklin and her husband live in Utah now, but they both came back home to NC for the wedding, and they chose a gorgeous location right out on the water for their special day. So without further ado, please enjoy a very photo heavy post from their beautiful day!

See what I mean about a beautiful location?

It was windy, but it did beautiful things for her veil.

Loved her colors!

Of course they wanted to do the jumping shot. :)

Jacklin and her adorable niece as her flower girl.

They were so happy, and also laughing at me trying to walk backwards.

Seriously how gorgeous are they and this light!

They are just too perfect!

Bryant just pulled Jacklin right into his lap here without any direction. So sweet!

Beautiful couple!

So sweet!

I graduated from high school with all these girls. We hadn't seen each other in 8 years!

Of course the sky was beautiful after sunset, so we went out for a few pics.

They had pretty mason jars with candles hanging from the trees. Loved it!

The beautiful rings. Jacklin's fingers are so tiny!

Amazing bouquet by Ivy Garden Florists in Plymouth, NC.

And last but not least, the beautiful wedding dress!

Red Lipstick and Nerd Glasses

So, I've always thought red lips were so beautiful, but I've also always been too afraid to try to pull it off myself. Well, recently I started reading this awesome blog. The girl that writes this blog is just way too adorable and funny. I've seriously become addicted, and I can admit I have a problem. Well, this sweet girl is so brave in her fashion and her make-up. Her blog posts on lipstick, especially red lipstick made me want to be brave. So I was, and I went out and bought several different shades of red lipstick. I surprisingly love them!

Also, completely unrelated, I bought so fake nerd glasses the other day just for fun. The hubster took a few photos of me the other night with them on. I'm gangsta, fo reals!

Oh So Beautiful Kayla!

Oh my, this young lady is so beautiful. Her dad used to be the youth pastor at our church, and now he is the senior pastor at another church. Kayla is a sweet and quiet girl, but she can do her thing in pictures. She was a joy to photograph. Take a look at her gorgeousness!

Jonathan's Senior Portraits

Jonathan is such a handsome young man, and yes ladies, he has a girlfriend. He was so sweet and fun to photograph. We talked and laughed and got some really great shots. Take a look at his session.

Jessica Senior

Jessica is one of the sweetest teenage girls I've ever met. She has such a quiet and sweet spirit. She's genuine and loves people. I'm so please to have her as one of my senior reps this year. Here are a few of my favorites from her senior session. Check them out!

Sara Senior

Last week I had the opportunity to photograph beautiful Sara. She was so sweet and so much fun. She did a great job, and we got some really beautiful shots. Check them out!
