Wow! Janene’s bridal session at the Cardinal Club in downtown Raleigh, NC will not be one we forget anytime soon. We met there at 4:00pm on April 16th. If you remember, that is the time we had some of the worst tornado’s North Carolina has seen in decades. We only had a limited time to shoot, as a wedding would be arriving at 5:30 for their reception. As we started, Sarah noticed the chandelier in the Cardinal Club (28th floor of the Wachovia building) was swaying pretty far. We kept shooting anyway and noticed how bad the visibility dropped outside the window we were shooting in front of. About 10 minutes into the shoot the intercom system came on and telling everyone to move to the center of the building because of the Tornado that was coming through. We were then escorted to the freight elevator room and waited the storm out. The Cardinal Club even fed us dessert as we waited! We didn’t know if we would be able to continue the shoot but, the tornados delayed the wedding party giving us much more time for her session. Keep an eye out for Janene and Tremaine’s wedding pictures very soon!!!

Casey + Hannah | Pre-Wedding Chapel Hill, NC
Casey and Hannah are the first couple we’ve photographed months in advance of their wedding. We had a great time roaming Chapel Hill taking pictures. As usual, everyone we passed congratulated them and some even stopped and posed for pictures with them. Hannah and Casey are such an easygoing couple and embraced the excitement of the day in anticipation of their actual New Years wedding day. Look out for their wedding pictures soon. It was amazing!
Dottie’s Bridal | Durham, NC
We went to Duke Gardens in Durham, NC during the peak of fall colors for Dottie’s bridal portraits. There was so many great colors and backgrounds to work with. Plus, Dottie was awesome to work with. Once we got going, she definitely knew how to work the camera. We couldn’t have asked for much more! Keep an eye out for Dottie and Zack’s wedding post coming very soon…
