Julio & Dacy | Film & Vintage Inspired Engagement Session Amongst Vintage Car Collection

For Dacy it was a no-brainer. She works for Hendrick Motorsports and loves the culture, so we were pumped to say the least when she got the green light to shoot her engagement photos in the rarely seen Hendrick Heritage Center Car Museum. The chance to enter this building and walk among the cars is a rare opportunity, much less be given permission to shoot a portrait session.

The particular car that Dacy & Julio chose to shoot with was the white 1955 Chevy Corvette…VIN # 1. It felt like we had stepped back into time and seeing this gem right off the production line. Complete with neon drive-in sign and marquee.

To wrap our time together we moved on to the working drive-in movie screen and Hollywood set-worthy mock up of a vintage Dairy Queen.

The staff we encountered were absolutely phenomenal and so genuinely nice. A huge shoutout to Kyle (you know who you are) for assisting us throughout the shoot and making sure we didn’t overstep around these timeless, priceless cars.

It was the perfect session to kick off our 2024 season, and we are so pumped to shoot this sweet couple’s big day at The Club at Longview in Waxhaw, NC.

Johnny & Brittany | Epic South Coast of Iceland Engagement Adventure

When Brittany & Johnny contacted us about photographing and filming this season of their relationship, we initially thought it was a cruel joke. Multi-day engagement photos across the South Coast of Iceland, and then a destination wedding in Costa Rica. Turns out…they weren’t joking!

We had actually met Brittany a couple years back, as she was a bridesmaid in one of our other client’s weddings. She was really impressed by how we conducted ourselves at the wedding and fell in love with our style of work. We’re so glad she liked what she saw and experienced.

These two were an absolute blast to work with, as well as TROOPERS! We had high winds, rain, and fog for a majority of our time with these guys, but because of their willingness to adventure, we were able to capture some incredibly epic moments and landscapes.

We cannot wait to celebrate and document their wedding day in Costa Rica, but until then…enjoy their Iceland adventure!

Evan & Makana | Fun & Elegant Lakeside Wedding Weekend on Lake Norman NC

Makana & Evan set out to create an elegant, yet super fun destination wedding weekend event for themselves and their SoCal friends and family. So, they all flew into beautiful North Carolina for a weekend full of fun on Lake Norman, NC.

It was the absolute perfect combination and balance of elegant, classic, old Hollywood, and boats, lake activities, fishing, and wake surfing.

The couple had a very specific vision of the style of photos they wanted for their weekend. Heavy film vibes, candid, motion blurred shots, and documentary style. We were so excited about the approach to documenting their weekend, and it allowed us to really explore creatively with low pressure. Alongside of these digital images, we shot video, and 4 rolls of 35mm film! There may be a separate blog of the film photo highlights as well.

After documenting the couple’s beautiful wedding day, we returned the following day to capture the couple enjoying the lake with their sweet friends and families. Fishing, grilling, swimming, and wake surfing were all in order, and we were so there for it!

It’s difficult to look through these images and not feel like you’re there…experiencing the emotions and feeling all the feels. Exactly our goal for every image we deliver for every client.

We’re super proud to present to you, Evan & Mahana’s wedding weekend.

Ian & Taylor | Love-Filled Elegant Wedding at The Harvard Club of Boston

There was ZERO questioning the level of excitement that Ian & Taylor had on their big day at the Harvard Club of Boston. There were so many smiles, bursts of laughter, explosions of tears, and we were lucky enough to be there to document it all.

Boston, and Harvard in particular, has a very special place in Ian’s heart as it’s where he attended school and led the track team during his time there. You might say he fell in love with Boston and his alma mater enough to tie the knot there.

Taylor & Ian did exactly what we advise all of our clients to do…”Make sure you take time to stop and soak it all in. Enjoy this day because it’s over in the blink of an eye.” They did just that. You could literally see them stopping to hold one another, tears welling up in their eyes, and soaking in each other’s love. It was beautiful.
