A Romantic Winter Wedding | Durham Wedding Photographer
I had the honor of capturing Makayla and Conner’s GORGEOUS winter wedding in January! The ceremony took place at Emmaus Baptist Church in Pittsboro, and there were SO many sweet and tender moments throughout the day. One beautiful moment that stood out to me was when Makayla finished getting ready, and her mom went over to her to hold her hands, say a few words, and hug her (Makayla is the youngest of four siblings!). It is always touching to capture organic moments like this of a mama and her baby girl! I also loved capturing Makayla and Conner praying together before the ceremony. I remember it was such a sweet and raw moment for the both of them trying to hold back tears, but also smiling at the same time because of their excitement!
The ceremony was absolutely beautiful, and the portraits we captured afterwards were also amazing. I’m a huge fan of backlighting, so I was stoked to see clear skies and a beautiful sunset when I captured portraits of just Makayla and Conner! I seriously couldn’t stop taking photos cuz the lighting was absolute perfection! Once we finished, we headed to the reception at Pittsboro Roadhouse. One of the highlights for me was documenting Makayla and Conner’s first dance. They choreographed their dance, and it was seriously like watching Dancing with the Stars (it included a flip!). When the reception ended, we finished with an epic sparkler sendoff. The joy on their faces (as well as the guests!) was absolutely priceless! I also loved how Makayla and Conner took time to look at each of their guests to thank them as they passed by!
Enjoy my favorite highlights below! Congratulations, Makayla and Conner—may God bless you two and your marriage!
