Victoria’s Bridal Session in Clemmons North Carolina from Late Last Summer Was the Perfect Transition into the Fall Wedding Season

Late summer in Clemmons, North Carolina marked the ideal setting for a bridal session that bridged the gap between the warmth of summer and the cozy embrace of fall. It was a return to a familiar place, one we had visited a few years ago for her sister’s springtime bridal portraits. This time, it was Victoria’s turn to shine. Her sister had an additional role to play as the talented florist behind the beautiful bouquet that would be featured in the photos.

Golden Hour Magic in Clemmons

Victoria had a vision for her bridal session. It revolved around capturing the enchanting golden hour light in the various corners of Tanglewood Park. We started our photographic journey in the lush gardens behind the majestic manor house. The late summer blooms and vibrant colors created a backdrop that perfectly complemented Victoria’s grace and elegance. The play of sunlight through the leaves added a touch of magic to every shot.

A Special Visit to the Stables at Tanglewood Park

As we continued our session, we made our way to the stables, expecting to find a charming rustic atmosphere. What we didn’t expect was a delightful surprise in the form of some unexpected guests. A resident horse, contentedly grazing in the pasture, caught our attention. It wasn’t long before a herd of white-tailed deer joined us. Their graceful presence adding an extra layer of enchantment to the shoot. Victoria was the epitome of grace and poise, even in the company of these unexpected visitors.

The Quiet Dirt Road Behind the Barns

Our journey through Tanglewood Park concluded at a tranquil dirt road. It is hidden away just off the beaten path behind the barns. It was the perfect location for capturing the final moments of the golden hour. The sun began its descent towards the horizon. The soft, warm light created a serene and ethereal ambiance, wrapping Victoria in a radiant glow. Against this backdrop, she looked like a vision from a dream.

Bridal Sessions are a Timeless Tradition

As a photographer, it’s moments like these that make me fall in love with my craft all over again. Capturing the essence of a bride’s personality and the beauty of nature coming together in perfect harmony is an unforgettable experience. Victoria’s bridal session at Tanglewood Park was not just a transition from summer to fall; it was a transition into a lifetime of love and happiness. It was a day filled with laughter, unexpected guests, and golden hour magic—a day that will forever be etched in the photographs we created.

Victoria’s choice of attire, a stunning white gown with intricate lace details, was a perfect match for the rustic surroundings. Her sister’s bouquet, a masterpiece of floral artistry, added a pop of color to the earthy tones of the setting.

MORE ABOUT US

Hi! I'm Alisha!

I'm so excited you're here! 

In addition to being a lady-boss photographer, I am a wife, a mom, a teacher and a follower of Jesus. Those things are the center of everything about who I am, what I do, and how I do it. That means I believe in how important family is, whether you are just starting your own, or are celebrating all of those special milestones. Josh and I have been married for over 12 years and photographing weddings and families for over 10 of those years. Our style has evolved over time, but we love capturing images that are bright, colorful, and tell the most important story - yours!

When we are not shooting, I love going on adventures with our two beautiful girls, trying new recipes, or catching up on my favorite shows with my hubby.

MORE ABOUT US

Hi! I'm Josh!

I want to capture your day!

Having the opportunity to live in a town as beautiful as Kernersville, NC is great. Being able to be here with Alisha is even better. I've been married over twelve years to the love of my life and for most of that time we have worked closely as wedding photographers. Because of this, we have a unique outlook on the wedding experience. Having the opportunity to find the joy and love in that special day and share it with you and your family and friends is the best thing about what I do. That's why I never miss getting a photo of the groom's face when he sees his bride for the first time.

When I don't have a camera in my hands, I enjoy coffee dates and car-sushi with my bride, board games before bed, and binge watching Netflix.
