Jenn’s Bridal Session @ The Graystone Inn, Wilmington, NC {Wilmington, NC, Photographer}

It wont be very often that I’ll have the opportunity to take a dear friends bridal portraits, but back in July I got to do just that.  Jenn had asked me back when Ben and herself first got engaged if I’d be willing to fly back and shoot her bridal portraits (and of course I said yes).  As the time got closer to our session we batted back and forth location ideas… I think we both would have loved to do the session outdoors, but considering it was July and ridiculously hot we opted for a session at The Graystone Inn, which is located in downtown Wilmington.  I don’t think we could have picked a better location, it was perfect for Jenn’s dress and the mood she was going for with her bridal portraits.  She was absolutely stunning in her dress.  Since this blog is up, it means that Jenn and Ben tied the knot on Saturday and I am sooo happy for the two of them and I hope y’all are having a blast in Mexico.  I hope you enjoy her bridal portraits…  Check back in a few weeks b/c I’ll have photos up that I snapped at the wedding…

I was standing on a porch in Highlands last fall, watching the fog roll down over the mountains while a bride got her veil pinned in by her mom. Nobody was rushing. There was coffee going cold on a side table and somebody’s grandfather telling a story in the next room. And I remember thinking: […]
