I absolutely love it when I hear from my seniors that they picked me out of everyone else for well... me! When I get to the session it means we will instantly connect, and that is totally how it was with Hanna! She is the sweetest, person and loves to laugh and smile. One of the things that I love about her is that she plays lacrosse, which is totally awesome! I know Hanna will have an amazing senior year and I can't wait to hear what college she decides on, I know that no matter what she decides she will do great in it!

Ivy Place Engagement Session | Sara & Michael | Indian Land, SC Photographer | yah Photography /
There is nothing better than an old friendship being rekindled after a couple years and then leading to a lifetime of happiness with your best friend. This is exactly what happened with Sara & Michael! When they got together last year, Sara knew he was the one, and could not wait for Michael to propose. I love hearing these kinds of love stories from my brides because I can relate with them because my own love story was very similar. When Sara and I were planning her engagement session I knew the two of them would be so much fun to photograph. When it came down to that day I was so excited because not only did the weather co-operate but we had the most gorgeous sunset to play around with! I know Sara & Michael’s wedding at The Ivy Place next year will be beautiful, and I cannot wait to see Sara’s ideas for her big day come together!

Sarah and Will are too cute for words! I was so excited when we started to plan their engagement session and Sarah said they were interested in incorporating an old flag. Will has proudly served multiple tours in the military and they are both very patriotic! This sparked my creative juices flowing and we all had a bunch of fun incorporating the flag into a variety of shots, while still capturing the fun spirit of the relationship that has brought the two of them together. Their wedding next spring at The Ivy Place is going to be so fun and beautiful, I just can't wait!

Mina has been planning her wedding for awhile now and was soooo excited when she told me the idea she had for her bridal session. It completely matched not only her, but her wedding theme as well. Once we got the ok we were all set, only one problem the dress came in and unfortunately was all wrong. We had to postpone the session, and with only a couple weeks before her wedding, she had to get a whole new dress. I have to give it to Mina though, she had such a great spirit and really rocked her session! After hanging out on the carousel at Carowinds we headed back to her parents house and took pictures in her mother's amazing garden. We had so much fun, Mina is a blast to photograph and I am so excited to be a part of her big day today!
Special thanks to Julie and all the staff at Carowinds for making Mina’s dreams come true for her bridal session! It wouldn't have been possible without everyone’s help!
Lake Lure Inn & Spa Wedding Photography | Jean & Cassidy | yah Photography /
Sometimes when you meet people, you just instantly know your are going to be perfect for each other. That is exactly how it was with Jean & Cassidy. I remember going home from our consultation thinking about how much fun the two of them were and how excited I would be if they chose me to photograph their big day. We met in the evening and by the next morning I had already gotten the call that they chose me and was so honored! I also love when a bride keeps me in the loop on all things wedding, after all us girls love to know all the details, and Jean did that with me from the beginning. So when the wedding came I knew exactly what the day would look like and what shots I wanted to take, and the two of them gave me the creative ability to do my own thing! And the proof of that is in all the beautiful fun images below! Their wedding turned out gorgeous, and although it rained in the morning and we had to make a slight change in plans for the seating at the ceremony, the sun came out for a bit and gave us the most gorgeous sky! Jean and Cassidy are truly some of the most beautiful people I know, both inside and out; and their love for Christ before each other shows in the way they outwardly show their love for each other. I am so excited to see what the future holds for them! <3 yah Photography
