Fowler/Webster Wedding

 March 26, 2016

Nick and Sierra's big day! 

I arrived at Sierra's house a little after 10 that morning, and the bride was in full getting ready mode with her bridesmaids by her side. I hung out there snapping photos of every key before moment. There was a point that a groomsman showed up with a letter for Sierra from her groom. It was a beautiful moment watching her read that as she wiped her tears. After her hair was done, it was time to put on the dress! Which was so beautiful! She topped that with some custom made chuck taylors, that her groom was also wearing a matching pair. (you'll see those in the photos!)

Once I was done with the bride, I headed over to the ceremony venue, where the groom and groomsmen were getting ready for the day. The Venue was absolutely beautiful! It was at Helms Christmas Tree farm in Vale, NC. They had prepared for the wedding by not planting anything down one aisle, and in a small open clearing. That way there would be an aisle to walk up and an area for seating. Other than that, Christmas trees growing everywhere! It was so fun shooting between the trees, and having them surround us! 

I found the men all huddled in a small house on the property, pants and undershirts on, just like I asked. So I could capture part of their getting ready process. They were all joking around having a great time, not a touch of nervousness in the air from anyone. 

Before we knew it, it was time to start the ceremony. From there on everything was just beautiful,  and sweet. You could really feel the love that day.
It was a beautiful day, and a beautiful wedding, I am so honored that I was asked to be a part of it!
Here are some photos from Nick and Sierra, Mr and Mrs. Webster's, Big Day!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Webster!

Holden is turning three!

Holden's mama contacted me towards the end of December, to take some photos of him for his upcoming birthday. Just like me Lacie likes to plan ahead, so after we talked details we set an end of February date. Thanks to a couple of snow storms that date had to go. The look we were going for just wasn't gonna work in the snow. Only 2 weeks later, it was a sunny almost 80 * day. That's North Carolina weather for you! 

Holden is turning three in a few weeks, and his birthday party is the theme of his favorite movie, Planes! I hit up Pinterest for all the planes ideas I could find. I came across this one that both Lacie and I really liked with a cardboard box airplane. I put it together and about 17 coats of paint later I was done. Did you know cardboard absorbs paint?! I do now!

Our session day was this past Sunday, and like I said almost 80 and SUNNY! Holden was just the cutest little thing I've ever seen! He was very wary of me at first. But once he saw all the goodies I had stashed in my camera bag, we were fast friends! A Pez dispenser is always my secret weapon for smiles, and I just happened to find a planes one! You'll see it in a few of the photos! 

I had a super fun afternoon with Holden, we ran around the beautiful West Lincoln park, rolled on the ground, slid down the slide. Every thing an almost 3 year old boy likes to do!

Here are a few photos from our day! 

Holden's Grandma came along for the session!
