Wrightsville Beach Intracoastal Waterway Engagement Photo Shoot – Chelsea and Dalton

This engagement session was simply epic. Beautiful sunset, beautiful location and drop in a beautiful couple = perfection! Chelsea and Dalton wanted to do two engagement sessions to get a few options for their Save-the-Dates. We chose a dock location off the Intracoastal Waterway for this session and got lucky on a beautiful evening with just enough pop of color in the sky. They were totally down to get wet which brought some magic. See images below of a beautiful love and connection. The thing I like personally is getting couples out of their head about having a camera on[...]

Sharise and Quinton reached out to me early February 2017 about documenting their big day that coming Steptember.

Headshots and Team Photos for the Jeff Lesley Real Estate Team

I've been doing headshots and team shots for awhile now and finally finding a nice groove of understanding light in a way to help some great local real estate agents. Jeff, Josie, Emily and Olivia got up with me to help them with some updated marketing for some print advertising they have coming up. We ended up juggling locations and found one of my favorite spots for headshots. Natural lighting is a warm and inviting way to market business, especially along the coast. Check out the results below!

Last Shoot of 2016 – Celebrity Style : The Hough Family!

The final shoot of 2016 was a treat indeed. I had the honor of capturing a cool family reunion. It had been some time since the Hough family had a chance to get everyone together for family captures but sometimes the universe aligns and yours truly was there with camera in hand to capture a family celebrating their love. Got to shoot at a beautiful wedding and destination venue of La Caille, a French restaurant in an elegant, château-style setting in Salt Lake City. You may recognize Derek and Julianne from their work on Dancing with the Stars, Hairspray Live[...]
