Rikina + Frederick | Engagement Session

Based on the first five minutes I spent with Rikina and Frederick at yesterday's engagement session, I wasn't expecting them to say they had been together 8 years already. After all, they were in love like two people still in that "honeymoon" stage. Maybe they have just found out the way to make that feeling last a lot longer...

Asheville Couple's Shoot | Sarah + Chris

Who knew you could have so much fun getting up at 6am on a weekend? I tried to remain hopeful that it wouldn't be TOO bad to get up super early on my last weekend off for the next few months. And you know what, it was totally worth it. You see, I was going to shoot a couple of great friends (and fellow photographers) Sarah Rominger and her husband Chris. As if that wasn't enough to be excited about, it was incredibly foggy out when we got up, and the mountains just outside of Asheville were beyond gorgeous. With our early morning mimosa's keeping us going, we headed out to an old farmer's field to catch the sunrise and see what else would happen.







































































Thanks so much for having us guys! We had a blast!

Nick + Danielle's Engagement Session

I have to admit, when I pulled into the parking lot of "Blessed Fun at Funtasia" for Nick and Danielle's engagement session I was a bit scared. Take a top notch mini golf course, arcade, and go cart facility from the 80's and don't touch it for 25 years, and this is pretty much what you get. Peeling carpet, faded paint, outdated "prizes", and games that just don't work anymore. Not my standard location. But I think that's why I loved it so much.

I met Nick and Danielle for the first time at Rachel and Donnie's wedding last year and knew right away they would be a blast to photograph. I'm happy to say they didn't let me down. Beside suggesting such an awesomely unique place, they totally weren't afraid of a little rain. In fact they rocked it, notebook style.

Thanks again guys!
