Lauren & Michael's Wedding in Trillium, NC

This wedding finally gave us an excuse to take the time to drive to beautiful Highlands, NC. We've heard so much about it from clients and friends and now we know what all the fuss is about. The beautiful vistas, neat shops and gorgeous buildings really are worth the insanely windy roads to get there. Lauren and Michael's wedding was nearby in Cashiers, NC at her parent's house in the immaculate development Trillium.








Absolutely love these!











A very sweet moment between Lauren and her mom.





We love this one because you can see one of Lauren's little boys doing his own thing on the far left.


Reverend Jacqui did a great job as always. If you are looking for a non-denominational officiant that can create a custom ceremony for you, give her a call.


The views along the golf course at Trillium are spectacular. And it doesn't hurt that the light was like butter!


There's no greater feeling than when the wind decides to work with you instead of against you.














This cake was a piece of art! Each flower is hand-made from sugar. Crazy!


And then it went flying!




For their wedding night, the newlyweds stayed at the Old Edward's Inn in Highlands and that's where we had their awesome Day After shoot. For anyone unfamiliar with what that is, our Day After shoots are devoted to the couple, usually in their wedding attire (or something similar), and there are no guests, no time limits and ultimate creative freedom! We can go to multiple locations and just have fun. It's the perfect solution to a wedding day that is planned too tightly to allow for much time photographing the couple. And isn't that what a wedding is all about: the couple? We often recommend this to couples that choose not to do a "First Look" since the traditional timeline for a wedding day (ie all photos of couple together are after the ceremony) does not allow much time to get a good variety. Here is just a sampling of the fun we had at Lauren and Michael's Day After shoot.













Lauren & Michael,

Thank you so much for giving us time to create beautiful images for you! Your intimate wedding was exactly what we needed after so many big, elaborate weddings with not enough time. It reminded us so much of our wedding day. We had such a memorable time, especially "getting lost" on the golf cart ride! We felt like we really got to know you well in those near death experiences. LOL!
