amber + wesley {married} at camp sky ranch | outdoor country wedding
After a couple years of planning all of Amber and Wesley’s time and energy came together on one spectacular fall wedding day in the Blue Ridge Mountains at Camp Sky Ranch. The venue itself provided an amazing backdrop and is one of Blowing Rock’s hidden jewels. If you haven’t heard about it you want to read the history here and learn what Jack and his wife Lori have brought to life.
Like many of the weddings we photograph this event was a family affair. Everyone worked together for days to decorate, coordinate, and celebrate the union. Family members baked and decorated the cake and cooked all the homemade southern foods for the reception. Bouquets, floral arrangements and candle decorations inspired by the Autumn surroundings were designed by Denise Brooks of Innovative Occasions.
Let us know what you think of Amber and Wesley’s outdoor wedding pictures. Our blog loves comments!
We are so thankful to have been a part of Amber and Wesley’s special day. They put their trust in our creative photography to capture their day. We could not be any happier with what we were able to capture. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Douglas!
In case you missed them, be sure to take a look at Amber’s gorgeous bridal photos!

kristin + jason {married} | asbury park grove | pixels on paper
Kristin and Jason’s October wedding was a beautiful nod to her love of all things vintage. There were loads of hydrangeas, lace, studded jewelry, pearls, and diamond details setting the tone. The color pallet of eggplant and pewter looked stunning among the natural setting at Asbury Park Grove. It was also a fun time for us to meet Jason’s family once again after previously photographing his sister Amanda’s wedding and to make new friends with Kristin’s family.
We wish Kristin and Jason all the very best and hope you enjoy this sampling of wedding photos that we have to share.

amy
At the moment I’m writing this tears are streaming down my face. In the middle of editing this very wedding I completely loose all control when I get to this image. With a little bit of composure I feel that I need to share. You may be thinking what’s so special about this photo? For me it represents incredible strength, it means dreams, hopes, and complete joy all coming true. For those who know Amy I hope you see it too.
You see, shortly after getting engaged a year ago Amy was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. When we met her and Rex for their first consult she was trying to plan a wedding while also preparing herself for the treatments that were to begin only a week later. I barely knew her but I knew lots fighting the battle and I was scared for her and Rex. I was scared for what they might loose and for what they might not get to enjoy. If I had known Amy then like I do now those fears may not have been so prominent. She is the most positive and encouraging person I’ve met. She had cancer beat before it even started, at least mentally that is.
This image is the very moment during their ceremony she and Rex turned to face their guests and were pronounced husband and wife. When I first saw this image on my screen I saw both of their smiles, big and larger than life. I saw happiness bursting at the seams. And then I followed her outstretched arm and saw the tattoo on her wrist and I thought to myself VICTORY.
Amy, you have and you will overcome. You are amazing. You are beautiful. Thank you for being a part of my life.

dustin + kristen { family portrait pictures} pixels on paper
It is very exciting for use when we have photographed a couples wedding and they return for all their future creative portrait photography needs. Just like these two! Kristen and Dustin are still technically newlyweds with less than a year of marriage behind them. They love photos and are determined to begin the tradition of annual family portrait pictures. Like I’ve been saying for years to other couples, you don’t have to have kids to have portrait pictures! Kristen and Dustin’s family currently consists of the two of them and one super cute fur-baby named Tiger.
Enjoy the pictures of this super cute and sweet couple!
Take a peek back at Kristen and Dustin’s wedding photos here. And see more of our creative portrait photography on our website.

We’ve been photographing Frank at different times this year capturing model headshots for his modeling portfolio. He is a great guy with big ambitions and talents ranging from fashion model to motor cross super star. The shocker… he is only 15! He is going to go far and we are looking forward to watching it happen.
In case you missed it, be sure to check out Frank’s portrait session earlier this year here. And if you or someone you know has a gig for Frank let us know and we’ll put you in touch.
