The Planner WEDS!

I've known Rayn for over 2 years now. She is the owner of R Elegance, a superior event planning company located in Charlotte NC. I've worked with her in the past and know first hand that she is one of the hardest working planners in the business. You can only imagine my surprise when Rayn approached me to photograph her own wedding. In all actuality, I was HONORED. Planners are picky.... and to be "chosen" really means a lot!

Rayn and Rashad make a beautiful couple. Family and friends commented that day that "they" knew these two would be together from the beginning. Rayn has that nurturing spirit that Rashad seemed to take to from day one. Rayn admitted she waited for her man... and as the story goes, "good things come to those who wait!"

Dreams came true that day... it was a beautiful ceremony for two beautiful spirits who became one. Thank you for the opportunity!

Together...

When he contacted me I knew he was serious. He said he needed someone to capture the moments of his wedding day. How many men are interested in the details of planning a wedding? Not many!

He was different, he was determined but he didn't know exactly what he wanted. That's where she came in! When I saw them together for the first time, they gave me the feeling of being in the presence of a "Power Couple". They just seemed to have it all... together. They knew exactly what they wanted... together! Two young friends with extraordinary futures in front of them bonded together by love and respect for the other. Individually, they made the other click... together!

Joe and Raven, I am more than happy for the two of you. Together, life will be that amazing ride that you'll never want to get off! Wishing you all the blessings HE has written...

Enjoy Life & :)!

Connie & Kai

Last weekend I documented the union of Connie and Kai at the beautiful Carmel Baptist Church in Charlotte. Theirs was a traditional ceremony shared with family and close friends. It was one of the happiest celebrations I've seen- EVERYONE was smiling, laughing and just... HAPPY!

Funny, I should say that because I did not understand any portion of the ceremony or reception. I did not know what the pastor said to them, what they said to one another or what their family and friends said to or about them. Although I did not understand, I still knew. True love has no language, you just feel it and that is what I felt as photographed their day.

Connie and Kai, thank you for the opportunity to share your day. I wish you continued love and most importantly happiness for years to come... Congratulations!!
