We had a great time capturing Devin and Chris’ wedding photography in North Carolina at The Farm near Asheville. We were both happy and impressed by their commitment to have a green wedding. Nearly everything was locally produced. Laurey’s Catering served local, sustainably grown foods that are in season, and guests enjoyed locally brewed Highland Beers.

One of the coolest aspects of this North Carolina wedding was the floral arrangements. Aria Floral, who specializes in sustainable floral design, used beautiful wooden boxes made from reclaimed vintage barn wood for the centerpieces, which included divine succulents mixed with local wildflowers and decadent calla lilys. At the end of the night, the centerpieces were re-potted and given to guests to take home and plant.

By mixing bold colors like hot pink with dusty blues and silvers, and adding design elements such as vintage lanterns and mossy table scapes, the bride really captured a modern, mountain vibe. It was truly beautiful!

A huge thanks and kudos to Asheville Event Co. for planning this one and keeping us in the loop the day of. They did an exceptional job and things ran so smoothly! The exuberant Tim Lolley officiated the ceremony and made the marriage official, and musicians Current Invention played an array of music that sounded amazing. And for dessert? A delicious cake prepared by Short Street Cakes.

Be sure to check out all the western North Carolina wedding vendors involved, and enjoy the photography from this perfect wedding day in Asheville!

Here are a few photos from Amanda’s lovely bridal photo session. Being Asheville wedding photographers, we were on our home turf shooting at the locations we did. We started at the North Carolina Arboretum in Asheville, NC and then got a few photos on the Blue Ridge Parkway at sunset. We love shooting landscapes and nature photography on our beautiful Parkway so it was a lot of fun to have a bride complimenting the scenery. Amanda was fantastic on her bridal session, as was her mom who came along with us. Sometimes wedding photographers just need an awesome mom to assist on a photography shoot!

Her wedding was last week in Maggie Valley so we are now able to share these with you! We admit… when we shoot a bridal weeks (or months) before a wedding and can’t show them off right away, we get impatient. But we always wait because you never know if the groom might start snooping online or on our blog :)

We had a great time working with the natural sunlight at The Arboretum in Asheville. Wedding photographers and brides have asked about the first two photos and how we did that. It’s no trickery, just the sun directly behind her creating a cool “flare”. We love using natural lighting in addition to creative flash techniques. We use what we got and use what we bring. Lighting is such a crucial part of our profession and we enjoy using it and controlling it on all types of shoots.

How about an anniversary photo shoot or a post-wedding trash the dress shoot with us? We’d be thrilled to work with you and create snazzy images that will last forever!

Fun, games, family, friends, love and style: what more could you ask for in a wedding? Meg and Justin’s Asheville wedding was on July 11th at the beautiful Hidden River Events in Swannanoa, NC. Meg is one of our greatest Super Fans, excited and enthusiastic about our studio’s output before, during, and after her gorgeous event. We absolutely LOVED shooting photography for her wedding. If you’re looking for some interesting ideas for planning a wedding, Meg and Justin have some great tips. From the design of the day with an amazing color palette to the beautiful flowers by Flora, the event was striking! Games like corn hole, ladder golf, bocce ball and a photo booth by Asheville Photo Booth kept the guests swinging all day and night. Thanks to all the great vendors, including Rev. Susie Greene-Wright for making it official, our awesome associates: Jen and Spencer, and of course the lovely couple. Enjoy some of these images from their big day and remember to also check out their engagement photo session from the spring.
