Coker Arboretum | Kalle & Daniel's Engagement Pictures | A Chapel Hill, NC Wedding Photographer

I have a sweet couple to share with you today! Kalle and Daniel met years ago in Florida (where they're both from) and have been dating ever since! Daniel is currently getting his PhD at Duke and Kalle works for UNC. 

We had so much fun walking around the Coker Arboretum! Thankfully there will still some leaves on the trees and I was so happy that we were able to get some fall pictures. We also got to end our session unexpectedly with Kalle and Daniel writing their wedding date on a lock and chaining it to a gate. So cute! Here's a few of my favorites from their session:

Fashion Friday: Plaid Jacket & Tunic Sweater

Jacket: JOLT (similar here and here); TUNIC: Mossimo (similar here (under $40!) and here); JEANS: AG; FLATS: Sam Edelman; NECKLACE: Banana Repbulic (similar here...I really want this necklace! and here); PURSE: Rebecca Minkoff; LIPS: MAC Lipstick in "Twig"

I apologize for not posting Fashion Friday posts for the past few weeks! It has been a CRAZY month and I let the ball drop on posting them. I'm planning to start posting on Fridays regularly again.

I am excited to share one of my favorite things with you...PLAID! I absolutely love plaid, especially in the fall and winter! I also LOVE a good tunic sweater. This one is one of my favorites because it's thin and comfortable and long enough to wear with leggings. I would say that this sweater is my most worn sweater during the fall!

Thank you to Sammi Evans Photography for these photos

Ida Lee Park | Miller Family | A Leesburg, VA Photographer

I could not be more excited to share this family session with you. Kelli asked me to meet her at a park in Leesburg and when I pulled up, I was SO overjoyed to see a gorgeous, rolling field with fall colors! Not to mention the early morning soft light was PERFECT. I love shooting just before sunset but this session has made me a HUGE fan of glowy morning light. 

Kelli and Cameron have the cutest family and I loved their little girl, Autumn. Here's a few of my favorites from their session:

Historic Oak View County Park | Rebecca & Adam's Engagement Pictures | A Raleigh, NC Wedding Photographer

I really enjoyed walking around Oak View and getting to know Rebecca and Adam! They are such a sweet couple. They're both teachers and I actually met them through my friend Amy with Plume Events. Rebecca and Adam are getting married next July at Highgrove and I CAN'T wait (Highgrove is one of my favorite venues!!). Here's a few of my favorites from their session:

Reynolda Gardens | Shannon's Bridal Portraits | A Winston-Salem, NC Photographer

I had so much fun with Shannon and her mom at Reynolda Gardens! Shannon made a lovely bride and I really enjoyed getting to know her a little better before her wedding day. Her are a few of my favorites from her portraits:
