Our dog, Theo (the black and white one), received a cancer diagnosis back in February of this year. We've had him since he was 2 years old and Tyler adopted him shortly after we started dating. Now, at 10.5 years old, watching him slowly decline has been one of the hardest things. As of right now, he's been managing really well with medication, but we know that won't last forever. Going into this and having an animal care background, I felt confident that I could handle it and that I could make the decision when the medication was no longer working for him. Turns out, it doesn't matter what background you have - this stuff is just HARD. I'm very thankful for the photos that took for us this summer. It's so nice to have this family photo with our two "dadoos" (as our daughter Juniper calls them! 🐶🐶)

There are so many reasons why I recommend still going through with your engagement session even if that weather calls for rain. This is one of my favorite images of Meagan and Seth's entire session and it was taken in the middle of a rain shower!

It's way too hard to pick my favorites from Isa and Matt's wedding! What an absolutely beautiful day for the sweetest couple 💕

Still my favorite proposal session ever!

Mark surprised Daniela in the Orchid Conservatory at Daniel Stowe, and I cannot think of a more perfect setting: soft light filtering through glass, orchids everywhere, the two of them in their own world.

She said yes (obviously), and now I get to photograph their wedding on August 1st, which I cannot wait for!

If you are planning a proposal and want someone in your corner as your Charlotte NC proposal photographer, this is what I do. Hidden. Patient. Ready for the moment.

The getting ready hour is quieter than everything that comes after.
A spritz of perfume. The last button done up. Slipping on her shoes.
Liz getting ready in the bridal suite at Alexander Homestead — soft light, soft moments, her day just beginning.

The details are a whole story on their own.

Katie and Jamison's flat lay: all blues, whites, and creams. Her earrings. Her ring nestled right in the center of flowers, exactly where it belongs.

As a professional photographer in Charlotte NC, the detail gallery is one of my favorite parts of every wedding to put together. These tiny things — the earrings she picked out, the ring she said yes to — they deserve to be remembered just as carefully as the big moments.

Michael walked Liz down those front steps at Alexander Homestead as the sun went golden and the roses were in full bloom, and I genuinely had to remind myself to keep shooting. This is the kind of light that makes you feel like you're inside a dream!

This is why I love spring Alexander Homestead wedding photos. The house, the light, the gardens - it never dissapoints!

Throwing it back to last June for Maria and Eric — kissing under string lights, in the rain, under a clear umbrella at Mariposa Chapel.

And yes, we have been getting a LOT of rainy wedding days lately. I have thoughts about this.

Here's the thing: rain on your wedding day is not a disaster. It is confetti that nobody had to clean up. It is a built-in excuse to be close to each other. And when the light hits a rainy night just right? That rain looks like glitter in the air.

These images from their wedding are honestly some of my favorite images I've ever made!

Throwing it back to Lauren and Joe's magical wedding day in celebration for the fact that I got to photograph ANOTHER horse and carriage at a wedding day and my horse girl heart is very happy 💕

I am a *little* obsessed with this shot. Blooming dogwoods, perfect light, and a bride looking over her shoulder at her bouquet while her girls stand beside her? This is the stuff wedding photography dreams are made of 🌸

Christine's spring wedding at Alexander Homestead had the most magical post-ceremony light and her bridesmaids' color coordination was absolutely stunning. Soft, feminine, and completely beautiful from every angle.

If you're planning a spring wedding and looking for an Alexander Homestead wedding photographer, I would love to be there with you!
