I have so many fond memories from growing up and playing by this pond. I was thrilled when Chelsea and John chose this spot, on North Carolina family land, as the spot to exchange their wedding vows. It was an honor to photograph their marriage and this chapter of their love story. Chelsea followed a path by the pond and through the woods, lined with sign after sign, with quotes including “love is not proud” and “love always protects.” Beneath the pine trees, John and Chelsea shared an intimate ceremony including a foot wash. The sun glowed through the forest as family and friends witnessed a beautiful exchange of wedding vows. The wedding celebration continued with dancing, family style dining, and a classic sparkler exit. Family came together to make sure the day was perfect, and it absolutely was.
