the wilkes wedding expo ~ march 11th
Some of you engaged ladies out there have begun looking for the gown of your dreams, your bridesmaids’ dresses and so on, and you’ve scoured websites and magazines for inspiration. Without telling you to table your search (because who are we to tell people what to do ….. unless we’re taking photos and even then, we ask nicely), we urge you to come by the Pixels on Paper booth/table at this upcoming event: The Wilkes Wedding Expo. It’s an important event to add to your research.
We’ve been attending this expo for the last several years, and it is easily one of the best ways for vendors from all parts of the wedding service industry to showcase their business to prospects. Ryan and I have met couples we’re still friends with over the years after taking bridal, engagement and ultimately wedding photos of them. (You sort of know immediately when it’s a good fit). Many of these same couples have started families, so we’ve also captured their newborns, 1st birthdays and following photos over the years AND those of their siblings. This expo is where you get great information and where many lasting relationships are born.
This year’s expo, hosted again by Bridal Traditions Wedding & Prom Attire is Sunday, March 11th at the John A. Walker Center at Wilkes Community College from 1 – 4 pm. Don’t miss the opportunity to get some great info and have fun with your support team.
We look forward to meeting you there!

Adam, Christine and a cozy Kensie – their “child.”
We met Christine at the wedding of her friends, Lauren and Patrick in 2014. This girl is a referral machine. We’ve not only booked more weddings because of her recommendations, but when she got engaged herself, she called us. We chatted with the pair at yet another wedding (no, they are not professional wedding goers!) and they were musing about potential engagement photos spots. We told them what we always tell couples: choose a location that’s meaningful to you so that in years to come you can look back at the photos and recognize the setting for its significance. That was when a lightbulb appeared over Adam’s head.
We took advantage of as many angles and options as possible and loved doing so with the couple and their sweet dog Kensie. These 2 will make it official (if you didn’t look closely at the photo above), October 22 of this year in Charlotte and we’ll be there to capture the next set of family memories and history. Counting the days!
We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs, engagements and weddings, brides, and special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.
