A Millikan Farm wedding: Hannah and Myles

Sometimes, you get a real boost to your day. Well, this day was already off to a good start as we were honored to photograph Hannah and Myles on their wedding day. But the extra boost was when Hannah told us that she had been following our blog since she was fifteen years old! Now that is something that you don't hear every day! Hannah, we hope we lived up to your expectations... but to be honest, you made it easy. With your kind heart and your genuine love for Myles, it all came through in the photographs. We are just so happy that we were there to capture it all. And we are honored to feature just a taste of your day here. Enjoy!

Hannah's uncle built this cabin by hand... an amazing place!

A New Bern wedding: Linda & Dennis

It was hot hot hot, but Linda and Dennis didn't let it bother them. Surrounded by good friends, good food and lots of laughs, it was a truly remarkable wedding. Of course, with Rachel Munro from Bridal by the Sea at the helm, how could it not? Jonathan and Renee trekked to the coast and had the pleasure of photographing two people very much in love - with the added bonus of working with Without Walls Productions. We can't wait to see the video since this bridal party had a choreographed dance to "Call Me Maybe" - Dennis was the ring leader and he is a natural! Here are some of our faves! Enjoy!






Linda showed off her Essence of Australia from Diva's in Greensboro gown to grandma...

a bride and groom should always get free ice cream, right?


New Bern Golf and Country Club hosted the affair...



Ali Smith's cake was as delicious as it was beautiful...











The florals from Tildy Design complemented everything...

As Red Sox fans, we have to turn a blind eye sometimes...







If you think you can dj a wedding with just an ipod, think again. DJ Bob Perry was a master mixer!






Thanks guys!
