I cannot get over how perfect Channing and Kyle’s engagement session was. They brought their little dog, Daisy, who definitely stole the show.

They were so excited to get all glammed up with the grownups, […]

Once their wedding ceremony was over, it was time for Kelly and Ben to show off their dance skills! The ballroom at The Historic 512 was a gorgeous backdrop for some incredibly memorable moments, from Ben’s booty popping entrance, to the incredibly touching welcome speech from Kelly’s dad. I don’t think any moment had people […]

After their engagement session, I knew Kelly and Ben were going to have a super fun wedding day. I didn’t realize just how much I would end up laughing with them and their amazing group of friends and family. In fact, looking back through their photos I was struck by just how many images there […]
