These two are so cute and they really styled it up for their session too (check out the cute accessories)!  I absolutely cannot wait to shoot their wedding at The Cotton Room next Summer!

Davida went to school in Wilmington and it was great to go someplace so sentimental… and the weather wasn’t too bad either – it was one of our first days of spring!

We started downtown at the historic Riverwalk

Playing with a little bit of texture here…

And a little playful on the swings :-)

Thanks again Travis & Crystal!  It was great working with you guys!

Dana and Michael have been dating for several years and I think everyone was over the moon when he finally proposed.  I remember screaming as soon as she got out of the car because I could just tell from the glow on her face!  And, of course, we all adore Michael too!  He treats Dana like a princess….what’s not to love?!

Their engagement session started at the Rose Garden, on the very same bench the first ‘I Love You’ was whispered.  Later it would be the same spot for asking for her hand in marriage.

Dana has the most amazing blue eyes….they just sparkle!

I think this shot is my favorite!

Aren’t the roses beautiful!  It was one of our bipolar weather weekends and everything was still in bloom!

Fabulous shoes deserve lots of attention!

Did I mention the happy couple are Wolfpack fans?  Most of the pre-wedding plans were scheduled around football season!

Congratulations Dana & Michael!  I can’t wait for the wedding next Spring!
