ok, prepare yourself for one of the most creative and beautiful weddings yet.  the bride, her mom, and her sister are whizzes at planning the details.  their crafty talent in combination with the planning skills of nannette from the proper setting made for an amazing wedding! there were so many personal touches to add to the intimate feeling of kristin and scott's wedding. 

the girls got their hair and makeup done at the sanderling spa.  what a lovely place to start your wedding day!

the girls relaxing for a moment before the fire alarm goes off!  yes, two weekends in a row the fire alarm went off in the hotel where our couples were getting ready.

the firemen assured kristin that all was well in her room after they gave it a thermal scan!

kristin's uber talented mom made her wedding dress!

scott gave kristin this sweet little book while they were dating.

almost time for the first look.

get this, mom even made the ring bearer and flower girls dresses!

photos inside the beautiful currituck light house.

after the ceremony at the corolla chapel we strolled to the reception at the whalehead club.

check out all of the fun stuff that kristin and scott had at their reception.  croquet, kite flying, delicious cupcakes, a second line exit.....

i love these trees!

this is a great shot that hannah, our intern, grabbed.

sunset on the outerbanks.  what a perfect way to end a wedding day!

ok, here is the deal, there were just too many fabulous shots from ashley and walter's costa rican wedding for one blog post.

here is part one....the details.

hot shoes! which shot do you like best? the horizontal or the vertical below.

this shoe shot was taken on the driveway leading to the villa. the driveway was soooo incredibly steep that you had to have 4 wheel drive to get up it and if you were walking you had to take the stairs! this is one of ashley's two dresses, one for the beach ceremony and one for the party.

the flowers were amazing!

ashley and walter had their vows printed on these cards. each guest picked a card and read the vow. it was so sweet and a wonderful way to involve the guests in the ceremony.

love the lanterns!

a gorgeous sunset on the beach just before the reception started.

umm, can you say amazing! this house was supa dupa sweet!

now you gotta hang on till tomorrow for part two of ashley and walter's wedding. : )

wow, talk about good timing!  the weekend before jessica and shawn's wedding was 30 degrees and snowy.  we had a huge turn around in weather and it felt like spring on their big day.

details at the carolina inn.

the wedding colors....carolina blue of course!

my favorite shot of the day!

we LOVE our new 50mm 1.2.  it is an awesome lens for dance shots in low light.

jessica and shawn- we hope you have an amazing time in paris and rome!  thanks for being such an amazing couple to work with. : )

we also did a loveshoot / trash the dress for lauren and her husband, kevin....check out that post coming up next!
