Michael & Allie are one of the Sweetest Couples that I’ve had the pleasure of working with!
It has been such an honor to have gotten to know them, in working with them to document this special time in their lives together during this past year!
We met last summer while they were in town for one of Michael’s soccer tournaments!
In the fall, after I got back from San Francisco, we shot their beautiful Engagement Portraits & then we photographed Allie’s stunning Bridal Portrait Session in March!
When their big day finally arrived, it felt like we had known each other, forever!!!
{Which is exactly why I offer all of my couples Complimentary Engagement & Bridal Portrait Sessions prior to their Wedding Day, so that we’re all totally comfortable with each other when it counts!} 🙂
Michael & Allie were married last weekend, April 18th at The Farm – A Gathering Place, in Candler {which is right outside of Asheville proper}!
It was a traditional April Wedding, complete with Sunshine AND a little Rain! 😉
{They say Rain on your Wedding Day is a Good Omen, btw~}
The rain delayed the ceremony for about an hour, but the show must go on & go on it did!
This sweet couple said I DO in front of their family & friends who had traveled from far & wide to attend this Beautiful Destination Wedding!
It was my firs time shooting at The Farm, {I’ve heard so much about it over the past few years} and this venue certainly did not disappoint!!!
The Farm itself is absolutely gorgeous & the staff was amazingly helpful throughout the entire day!
Despite the rain, everything was just PERFECT!
& at the end of the night, Michael & Allie were SO Happy & that’s all that really matters!!! 🙂
ENJOY!
Michael & Allie,
Thank You SO Much for asking me to be apart of such an incredibly special time in your lives!
Many Blessings for a Long & Happy Life Together!
Can’t wait for Graybeal Babies! 🙂

Sweet Allie got Married today!!!
{in a Destination Wedding at The Farm, in Candler!}
What an absurdly gigantic dress & what an insanely BEAUTIFUL Bride!
Thank God, I didn’t have to wait TOO long to share this session!!!
I think I might’ve died if I were forced to wait months to share! 😉
Allie wanted the Beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains as her backdrop for her Bridal Portrait Session
& What better place than the Blue Ridge Parkway!?
During her Bridal Portrait Session, I gave Allie a new nickname, which is: Wedding Barbie!
She just looked SO. PERFECT.
My good friend Ali Lawless did an AMAZING Job on her makeup & my other bestie, Tricia Zinke at Asheville Hair Design did a phenomenal job on her hair!
{Allie especially LOVED that ‘poof’}
As Allie so adorably put it:
“Isn’t that what Southern women say, when they go to the hair dresser, they sit down in that chair and say: JACK IT TO JESUS!”
Which then made her bridesmaid, Meredith (who had driven from Georgia to help out with the session) & I – DIE laughing! 🙂
Congratulations Allie, I’m SO Happy for you and Michael & I am beyond grateful to have met you guys & to have been part of SUCH a special day!
