Epic Sunrise Adventure Engagement Session with Hallie and Baker at Rough Ridge on the Blue Ridge Parkway- Blowing Rock, NC. I had to wake up at 4AM to catch the light just right in this shot, but had such a fun morning hiking up to this beautiful spot. Photo was taken early April so the mountains were not green quite yet.

Since I live in the Southern Appalachian Mountains, I specialize in Adventure Engagement Sessions for my couples. The beautiful rolling mountains of Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia are my home.

Brittany and Brandon live in a big city, so when they told me they wanted to get out to an epic location with big views, I knew just the place! This photo is taken on top of Hawksbill Mountain along the rim of Linville Gorge, NC. It was not an easy hike to get here, but the views are worth the effort. This whole region is part of a National Forest, so there is not development insight. The couple and the scenery are so beautiful! I can't even get enough!

Carlie and Hunter wanted to get their engagement photos at a waterfall in the East Tennessee area. I found this secluded falls, in the National Forest just outside of our hometown, where we could have privacy and enjoy our time shooting. The cold mountain spring water made for a VERY cold shoot. Look closely and see the chill bumps on her arms! With the unique spot, the Autumn leaves swirling in the water, and the love between this young couple, it made for a magical photo session indeed!

What can I say about this photo? It speaks for itself. As soon as I saw this angle of this enchanting scene, I knew I had to have this shot. Located in the Botanical Gardens of Asheville, NC, the bridge passes over a picturesque creek and the afternoon light was just perfect that day. Julianne and Zach's engagement photos all turned out beautifully that day, but this one was a standout! It really does transport you to a fairytale and the story of a prince and princess lost in a wood together...
