Melissa & Matt… {North Carolina Lifestyle Photographer}

Melissa told me that there was nooo way Matt would be willing to step in front of my camera.  Well if you know me, I don’t take no for an answer when it comes to photographing my friends :)…. sooooo… 🙂 I sent Matt a message that basically said… “please please please let me take a few photos of you and Melissa while I’m in town…”  Well needless to say he didn’t respond to that right away… but then I got the response 🙂 “anything for Kendra”…. lol (I knew that answer was trouble!!) so I quickly called Melissa and told her what he said … now she’s holding it against him, but hey we were able to get him to say yes…  Well if it was only as easy as that!!!  I think he was planning on backing out of his saying yes to me… but once again I wasn’t about to not take a few photos of my best friend and her beau…  So when he showed up on Saturday to hang out, somehow he was talked into stepping in front of my camera.  He’ll probably lie to you and say he hated it (but deep down inside I think he had fun… shoot, he was laughing and cracking up the whole time!!)

Matt, thank you for being a trooper for all 15 minutes you took pictures!!!  Melissa, I am soo glad I was able to get a few shots of you guys.  Here’s a few from the session…

I met up with Sarah & Lee in downtown Spartanburg for their engagement session and it was the dreamiest evening. We walked around downtown talking about all the things from how they met, what they love to do and even a little wedding planning talk. These two are some of the easiest humans to be […]

Let me set the scene: Live oaks dripping with Spanish moss, waterfront backdrops that look like a Nicholas Sparks novel (but with less drama), and architecture that makes you want to whisper just out of respect. South Carolina is not messing around when it comes to wedding venues. Whether you’re planning an all-out wedding weekend […]

Kelsey & Tate were married overlooking Lake Norman at The Peninsula Club. The day was one of those days that you couldn’t beat weather wise. There was a cloud in the sky and it was just right with the temperature. Kelsey got ready with her ladies at her parents house where even her sweet pup […]
