Having spent many years as a newspaper photographer, I always enjoy catching up with fellow journalists. I first met Melissa when she interned at The Charlotte Observer when I was a staff photographer there. Fast forward several years and I’m now working full-time in our photography business and Melissa is a newspaper photojournalist in South […]
We had a picture-perfect fall day for Vanessa and Josh’s engagement session at Freedom Park in Charlotte. The leaves haven’t quite turned yet but the crisp air, warmed by plentiful sunshine made for ideal conditions. Vanessa is a very close friend of my niece Melissa (Missy to our family), and it was great getting to […]
I first met Reginia when I photographed her sister Ticia’s wedding in 2005. And I welcomed the chance to work with her family again when she contacted me to photograph her wedding to Vincent in Old Salem in Winston-Salem. Vincent proposed to Regina on the covered bridge in Old Salem, which encompasses 100 acres of […]
Suzanne and Ryan chose the beautiful Lexington Baptist Church for their ceremony and then took a short ride to the reception at the Columbia Marriott. It seemed that all the details had been taken care of, right down to USC getting a football win in a close game. Gamecock fans were plentiful and the victory […]

My previous career was as a newspaper photojournalist, a profession that presented some amazing experiences and opportunities. Aside from covering incredible people and events, it also allowed me to work with some great print journalists. So it was an honor when one of my former colleagues at The Charlotte Observer asked me to photograph his […]
I knew this shoot was going to be fun. Alessandra is an incredible ballet dancer, a member of the North Carolina Dance Theatre and someone I’ve photographed many times over the past several years. She and Michael were recently engaged and I was excited about working with them. They are both so personable and fun […]
I always know that a wedding that features a Kathy Allen Fine Wedding Cake is going to be an impressive event. So I was excited and privileged to get the opportunity to document Kathy’s daughter Kendrick’s wedding to Clay at The Duke Mansion. And, as you would expect, the cake and the entire event, were […]

John’s brother led the Mass while his father served as best man, his brother and brother-in-law were both groomsmen and Amy’s sister-in-law was matron of honor. It was easy to see the close relationships they both had with […]
