Jessie + Brandon – Raffaldini Vineyard, NC

For the past year I have been looking forward to this wedding.
I still remember the day.

Jessie called me and wanted to set up a time to come by and chit chat with me about being her photographer. I however have 3 little boys and often times meeting alone, just doesn’t happen. She however dropped by any how :) – despite the warning of a hectic household hehe, and we sat down and chatted wedding. My kids were in and out, I think at one point one of them was in their underwear… Lets just say, when Jessie said “well, we will get back to you very soon.” – and proceeded with goodbyes…. I then remember saying to my husband “there is no way she is booking me after that!” – Yet 10 minutes later, Jessie knocks on my door (they had their talk in the car) – and was crying! Telling me she would be so pleased if I would be her photographer.

I was seriously for a moment speechless and had no clue what to do except hug her HAHA.

From that moment on I have loved photographing Jessie and getting to know her.

I have done her engagement portraits, bridals and even a special “christmas surprise” session for her mom last year.

She is incredible, her family so so sweet and even her husband Brandon.

Jessie’s location for her wedding was also a major perk. I was so stoked about this location that it actually kept me up at night thinking about it. It was located about 4 hours from my home at a place called Raffaldini Vineyards.

The wedding could not of gone any better.

It was STUNNING.

Enjoy :)
