The Barn at Heritage Farm : An Autumn Dream Wedding Venue Come to Life

Victoria had always dreamed of having her wedding in autumn at the Barn at Heritage Farm. As she put it, “This place has been my dream venue since the first time I saw it years ago. It is close to our family farm and church. I love the rustic feel of the barn as well as the large window in the front with a spectacular view of the mountains in the back.” The venue’s proximity to cherished locations held a special place in her heart. It made it the perfect choice for their autumn celebration.

Groom’s First Look at the Family Farm

Cody’s journey to the wedding day began at the nearby family farm where the couple had their engagement session. The sentimental significance of the location made it the perfect choice for their first look. We also took a majority of their portraits at the farm. The warm hues of the autumn leaves and the radiant sunset painted a picturesque backdrop for their photos.

We’ve captured countless weddings, but have never had the pleasure of witnessing a groom as giddy as Cody on his wedding day. His sheer joy and excitement were infectious. It was a testament to the deep love and happiness that Victoria and Cody shared.

Victoria’s sister, Olivia, took on the role of the florist for the day. She crafted a stunning bouquet that perfectly complemented the couple’s love for nature and hunting. The bouquet featured intricate details, including pheasant feathers. Deer antlers, which symbolized the couple’s shared passions and love for the outdoors, were incorporated into the table decor.

Chasing the Dream Sunset Ceremony

Victoria’s dream included a sunset ceremony, a vision that posed lighting challenges for the day. To overcome these challenges, we helped the couple scheduled a first look. This enabled us to capture most of their portraits before the ceremony. We also used a well-placed flash setup during the ceremony. This allowed the natural light from outside to seep through the large window. After sunset, we relied on creative flash techniques to capture final portraits during blue hour.

After the ceremony, the couple and their guests enjoyed delicious food by 13 Bones Barbecue. The joyful celebration that followed was a testament to the love that surrounded them on this special day.

We have been friends since 2006, married since 2008, and capturing memories through photography since 2010. The years of experience in all three make us uniquely qualified to tell your budding love story. If the years have taught us anything, its that fulfilling, long-lasting marriages have a foundation of friendship, and are built with joy - and perhaps quite a few carbs!

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.
