Intimate Wedding in the Mountains

Imagine this:  Imaging taking off, just you and your fiance, to a destination and simply signing a piece of paper. Then imagine donning your "wedding's best" hiking almost a 1/2 mile to the top of a mountain, then taking some of the most loving pictures simply to mark the day.  That's exactly what Tiffany and Jacob did.  There was no huge procession.  Tiffany's mother made the bouquet.  Jacob picked out her shoes.  And they simply stared at the setting sun and said, " I do."

Gabbi + Byrd Engagement Shoot @ UNCC Botanical Garden

Gabbi and Byrd met in college, became friends, fell and love, and now they are getting married.  One thing that was completely evident in shooting this friendly and loving couple is that they have an undeniable balance that radiates.  I had a great time shooting this couple and can't wait to shoot their wedding in 2016.
