Remember when you were a kid and June finally arrived and you got to go on summer break? No school for a couple months? I don't know about you but those were some of the most exciting times of my childhood. No getting up early, no doing homework, just some time off to go outside and play. And this is exactly what Ryan and Anna (and myself) did yesterday during our engagement session. With Anna being off for the summer from her teaching job, it was the perfect time to run around, play in the water, and enjoy some summer romance.
Nikki and Aaron's wedding this past weekend at Green River Plantation confirmed for me that every single wedding I go to has SOMETHING unique about it. Even after attending weddings nearly every weekend for the past several years, I still had never heard anyone walk back down the isle to the Brady Bunch theme song. And thanks to them it's been stuck in my head for the past few days. Now to their credit it wasn't just a random song for them, they do actually have three kids each (and now 6 overall), so why not play off the theme a bit.
And of course the gorgeous Green River Plantation set the perfect backdrop to the whole wedding. Set on several acres on the edge of the NC mountains, the place is an absolute photography playground with several ponds, giant trees, and one of the oldest houses in the southeast. Check it out:
It's always a blast working with couples that are so much in love that it boils up onto the outside. Throw in some gorgeous weather, stunning surroundings, and a healthy dose of adventure and you've got one heck of an awesome engagement session.
Thanks again guys! So excited for your wedding later this year!
