Capturing Love in a Hurricane | Durham Wedding Photographer

How do I photograph a wedding in the middle of a hurricane? With LOTS of rain gear, protection, and backups! No matter what the weather conditions are, I’ve got your back :) I had the honor of working with Jesse and Orlando again, and it was a joy to capture their beautiful wedding. Hurricane Ophelia made her debut the day of their wedding, but that did not stop them from celebrating their love.

They had an intimate outdoor ceremony at their home, and despite the pouring rain, it was one of my favorite memories! Everything, from the weather to the mood, was just so real and authentic. I loved seeing how Jesse and Orlando (as well as all the guests and vendors!) simply embraced the rain and the moment. During the procession, I also loved how all the guests were cheering and clapping their hands when Jesse made it to the tent and reached Orlando! The support and love was so evident.

After the beautiful ceremony, the reception took place at the iconic Durham Arts Council. They had a sophisticated and unique dinner experience, and even had the owner from Snap Pea there! He explained the thought behind the menu, and shared the creative process regarding the dishes for the evening. When it was time to dance, they had a fun SOUL TRAIN, and the moves everyone had were SO good :) See more priceless moments from this beautiful wedding below! Congrats again, Jesse and Orlando!

A Romantic Wedding at Merrimon-Wynne House | Raleigh Wedding Photographer

After a year and a half of waiting, Cassandra and Blake were able to finally celebrate their special day with their friends and family! :) Some of you may remember they held a very small, intimate wedding ceremony last year on their original wedding date (see blog here) and decided to postpone their larger gathering to 2021.

It truly was such a JOY and honor to document their larger gathering this year! All the details were so beautiful, and I especially loved seeing the excitement on everyone’s faces. Two Roosters were also there and served ice cream during the reception! It was such a fun and sweet treat! :) See more beautiful highlights from this wonderful day below! Congrats again, Cassandra and Blake!
