$John + Liz \\ Linville Falls Winery$

I shot this wedding 1/2 mile from where I grew up which was weird and also beautiful. John and Liz had the most yin-yang energy when it came to their wedding day. Southern tradition mixed with wild spirits. Follow the Budweiser can and GT 350 for the whole story.

Brook + Laura \\ Linville Gorge, NC

Quick to say a dirty joke and squeeze an ass cheek. We went deep into Linville Gorge ending up at Brown Mountain Beach Resort for Brooke and Laura.

$Mandolin Orange \\ Durham, NC$

Mandolin Orange \\ Durham, NC

I took Andrew and Emily of Mandolin Orange to a parking garage in Durham, NC where the light is consistently lovely and the acoustics for sound is eerie as hell.

I knew that I wanted to have them both sing an a cappella version of one of their songs during the shoot so I stopped them about halfway through, had them face each other and they sang this version of "Lonesome Whistle".
