One of the things I really like about being a photographer is getting to know not only the Bride & Groom, but their families as well. Over the past several months, I have had the fortune to get to know not only the lucky couple, but their parents as well. So when the big day arrived this weekend, I really looked forward to seeing everyone again.
Amie & Holt were married at the Edenton Street Methodist Church in Raleigh, NC. This is a beautiful Church with wonderful architecture and humongous stained glass windows. OF course, photographically speaking, I love shooting in places like this as it affords so many opportunities to mix wedding photography with architectural and artistic stylings. A short limo ride later and we all arrived at the North Ridge Country Club for the reception. The last time I was here (which was some time ago) the ballroom we were in did not exist. So it was quite a nice surprise when I came in to see 9 beautiful chandeliers hanging up, a band on the permanent stage and decadent furnishings in every corner.
The band, the flabbergasters, played up a great mix of beach, rock and even rap to get the party started. Everyone really enjoyed their evening (and I have proof in the photographs) and it was my absolute pleasure to work with Amie, Holt and their families.
Now, on to a few photos:
