I remember my first chat with Clare! I knew right away that she and I had to same vision for her engagement session! Beautiful and romantic! Plus anyone that loves blush as much as I do is going to be pretty much amazing, right!

Lauren + Billy NC Engagement | Christina Chapman Photography
One of my favorite things about planning a session is getting to know my clients. Hearing their love story. All the little details of how they met and fell in love make my romantic heart so happy! Lauren and Billy have the sweetest story! To say these two lovebirds were destined to be together is an understatement! Doesn’t even come close! They met for the first time during a summer program at Wheaton College. They knew of each other, but the sparks weren’t flying… yet! It wasn’t until some time later that Lauren and Billy were reunited as Maid of Honor and Best Man at Laurens sister’s wedding! What are…

Gigi’s Vintiques Wedding| Hannah & Stephen
Last weekend, in the midst of hosting my mother for her annual birthday weekend with us and conspiring a surprise visit from my sister we slipped away to capture Hannah & Stephens charming rustic wedding! We were reminded why we love photographing weddings so much: it’s an entire day where are able to get completely lost in other people and be invited into one of the most important days in someone else’s world. A few weeks ago, I had the chance to photograph Hannah and Stephen and their two beautiful twins (Aspen and Jagger; cute names, right?) Seeing this sweet family together during their session I knew it’d be a wedding we’d…

Oh, friends, we are so obsessed with Diana & Ralphs Atalaya Castle engagement session! When sweet Diana sent me a list of venues in the Myrtle Beach area that she liked I had no idea that she was going to blow my mind with this incredible location!

The palm trees towered over the Castle adding to the tropical feel of this stunning venue! Even better the beach was like right there! We could hear the ocean and air had that wonderful crisp salty…
