Lauren's Bridal

I just absolutely loved this bridal session with Lauren. First, it was just so sentimental to me because these mountains are where I fell in love with my husband and I truly believe it's one of my most favorite places on earth. Second, it's so amazing to take a bride up there for a shoot. I've been dying to do it , but had no takers. Since Lauren is originally from the near by town, these mountains mean something to her also. She was such a trooper and of course she looks absolutely stunning and beautiful.

Ok, I know I haven't said where this place so here it is...it's in pisgah national forest up above Brevard NC on Tenant Mountain. I've hiked here many times in college and Matt and I make regular visits here a few times a year. The weather is very finicky so you never know what you're going to get. It can be beautiful in Brevard, but when you go up 2,000 feet things can change in an instance. Thankfully the weather held for us and we got some amazing shots. The temperature was in the low 50's so for Lauren to be out there in a strapless dress proved her to be a better woman than me. :)

Ok, enjoy...

Amanda and Lenny

Last week I spent an afternoon with Amanda and Lenny for their engagement session. Let me just say how honored I feel that they picked me as their photographer. Both of them have careers in marketing so they know what they're looking for in a photographer. :)

Ok, about their shoot. They met at the old Greenville Braves stadium where they both worked as interns. Naturally we did some shots there. This was really cool because we had the whole place to ourselves. :) Then we headed to Lake Luke where Lenny proposed. The lighting was amazing as the sun set over the moutains.

I had a great time with these two and I'm so looking forward to their wedding this coming may.

Thanks guys!
Olivia :)

Morgan and Eric

Ok, let me first just say that I'm really sorry these images are not larger like my other posts. Blogger is giving me a fit and I can't figure it out. As soon a I figure it out, I'll change the images to the larger ones.

About the wedding. I just loved it! Morgan and Eric are perfectly adorable together. :) May their love last a lifetime. Morgan is probably one of the most laid back brides I've ever had and of course she is just stunningly beautiful! Everyone was great to work with and the Ryan Nicholas Inn is top notch. Kim runs a tight ship and everything really flows. :)

Thanks guys,
Olivia

Christina and Art

Here are a few favorties from my day with Christina and Art. Can you believe that blue sky?! I love it. This was such a fun group to work with. Everyone just seemed to really enjoy the day and the moment. I also probably heard one of the best "sister of the bride" toasts. I won't foget that sweet story.

Best wishes Christina and Art.
Olivia
