I had the sweetest time capturing a surprise proposal for Logan and Liz this spring! When Logan first reached out to me, he shared that they were casual people, and wanted the proposal to feel authentic and intimate. He knew Liz wouldn't want a lot of people around, and they frequently would go on walks around Lake Betz. He knew that doing the most normal and ordinary thing would be when she'd least expect a proposal…and he was totally right!

Logan and I scouted the location beforehand, and we planned where he’ll stand and where I’ll be. The goal was for me to stay far enough so they could enjoy the moment together privately. When the day came, I remember doing my best to blend among the bushes and reeds with a telephoto lens, and waiting for the special moment! When they made their way around the corner to the proposal spot, it was SO sweet to witness. Liz was completely surprised!

Afterward, they changed into a second outfit and we captured a couple more beautiful engagement photos around the lake. Congratulations again, Logan and Liz! Scroll down to see more sweet moments from their Lake Betz proposal and engagement session!

Every season of life is worth celebrating, and wedding anniversaries are definitely something to commemorate! I recently had the honor of capturing 10th wedding anniversary photos for my dear friends, Lauren and Ryan. It was such a JOY photographing this special milestone for them! We captured their photos at the gorgeous NC Museum of Art in Raleigh, and it was a beautiful summer evening. Lauren mentioned that she wanted to capture photos of their wedding rings, and it was so fun to capture some creative shots with the warm golden sunlight behind them. She also still had her tiara from her wedding as well as her red Virginia Tech heels, and it was SO awesome to incorporate them into the shots at the end! Congrats again to this wonderful couple, and enjoy scrolling through some of my favorite moments below!

I had the honor of working with Emily and Justin recently for their engagement photos! They are such a sweet couple, and I thought it was awesome that they’re both dentists. I captured this special season of life for them at the beautiful Historic Yates Mill Pond Park in Raleigh. It was a SUPER windy and chilly day, but that didn’t stop us from having fun and capturing gorgeous photos!

We started off by doing photos at the iconic waterfall and mill. Because it was so windy, I had to pose them strategically so E’s hair wouldn’t fly over her face. I positioned them in a way that would help us work with the wind, versus against the wind (i.e., I had Emily facing towards the wind, and I placed their heads together to “hold” her hair down).

We then captured some photos by the awesome rustic log building. Not only did it help block the wind, but the sun was setting SO perfectly behind them! I also wanted to incorporate some symmetry and sun flares in the shots—and boy, I was thrilled with the results! We then ended the session capturing some beautiful candid shots of them in a small grassy field. See more stunning photos from this wonderful engagement session below!
