Sharon and Chris eloped, surrounded just by their closest family, in a beautiful Beach Ceremony in Oak Island, North Carolina. When Sharon first contacted me, we vibed instantly which I loved, so I couldn't wait to be their Wedding photographer in the Wilmington Area. It rained all day, but just before they got ready to say their vows, the sky opened up and the sun came through for the two of them - if thats not a sign I don't know what is! But how did we get here?

Alison + Thomas got married in a beautiful outdoor garden ceremony on the coast I am so lucky they chose my as their Wedding Photographer in Wilmington, North Carolina. As the sun was setting, the two said their vows to each other surrounded by their friends and family. Alison was giddy the entire time while getting ready, so excited to finally see her groom. "You know how some say you get second thoughts before a wedding? I didn't. I never been so sure of anything in my life", she told her bridesmaids, with this huge smile of hers, that warms up any room. This is something I noticed right when I first met her for their Engagement Session (check it out here!) The two met in the gym, where they participate in olympic style weight lifting.
