Ann + Joe: NC Arboretum & Downtown Asheville

Very excited to share Ann and Joe's wedding! We started the day early,  for a morning ceremony at the NC Arboretum. Ann and Joe decided to have a first look with portraits before the ceremony. I felt so lucky to photograph this big moment in their lives and loved facilitating honest and heartfelt portraits where Ann and Joe could shine through being themselves above all else. After the ceremony guests headed to downtown Asheville for a brunch reception at the courtyard on Lexington Ave. behind Bouchon. Thanks Ann and Joe for planning such a fresh and lovely day!
