I met Holly a little over a year ago when I was photographing Jennifer’s bridal session at Meredith College. Holly was Jen’s maid of honor and came along on that day to help situate Jennifer’s wedding dress and make sure that she looked beautiful for her pictures. Who would have known that one year later, I would be photographing her very own engagement session with her long time love of her life, Carson. Carson and Holly got engaged earlier this year after being together for a majority of their lives. They were high school sweethearts! How sweet is that?! I met Holly and Carson in Clayton where they lived and we jumped around from Clayton, to Carson’s family home in Smithfield and then we ended in the small town of Selma. It was so nice spending the evening with Holly and Carson getting to know them better, chatting about life, love, and marriage (and a little bit about my adventures in parenthood! Ha!). I hope you love your photos, guys! I had a lot of fun!














































These pictures are beautiful. I am so happy for you and your upcoming wedding!
