I have the best job in the entire world. I get to photograph madly in love couples on the happiest day of their lives. I get to witness so much joy and so much love on every wedding day. And it never ever gets old. But even after photographing so many amazing couples, I could tell there was something extra special about the connection between Brad and Olivia. The love and joy between these two was overflowing, and throughout the entire wedding day, I just kept thinking to myself “wow, these two were truly made for each other!”

Brad and Olivia have the sweetest story. They are high school sweethearts who met when they were just 15 years old. They were long distance for four years while Brad was in the military but nothing could stop these two from staying together. They were finally able to live in the same state again when Olivia moved to North Carolina to be with Brad. And they are so excited to never have to live apart from each other again.

Brad and Olivia, it was such an honor to be your wedding photographer! Enjoy these first few sneak peeks from your wedding day. I can’t wait to finish editing your full gallery!

A HUGE thank you to Olivia and Brad’s amazing vendor team. These incredible wedding vendors made this wedding day one of the smoothest and stress free days I’ve ever had the pleasure of photographing!
