More to come of Kacie’s rainy day bridal session in Uptown Charlotte.
Rackin’s bridal session was one that I was looking forward to for a long time. She looked stunning in her dress and wore it with the grace and elegance that is not common today. I was so pleased when we discussed the Duke Mansion as the location for the shoot. It is one of those rare places in Charlotte that has the pre 60’s elegance and class that is just not found in today’s architecture. It has a patina that only can come from a structure being there that long and capable hands to care for it. Makeup by the venerable Erin Ashley.

I had been looking forward to photographing Jacki’s bridal session at Winghaven Gardens ever since she suggested the location. I had photographed her sister Katie’s bridal session there a few years earlier so having the opportunity to see the garden in a new way enticed me. I love the garden as it offers history and a natural tamed beauty that is not readily available in Charlotte.
Jon and Niki had a classic wedding at the Great Aunt Stella Center in Charlotte, NC.
I loved all of the grey, black and white details. Simple and sophisticated.
