Charlotte Wedding Photographer | First United Methodist Church | The Big Chill | Elizabeth & Mitchell | yah Photography by Kelli Conley

Elizabeth and Mitchell are so much fun! The two of them together is such a great combination. Their wedding in uptown Charlotte was filled with love from all of their friends and family. They also had an amazing bubble exit followed by leaving in a horse and carriage. One of the moments I enjoy most at each wedding is getting to sneak away the bride and the groom for just one more couples shot into the evening. This gives them one more time to really remember the evening and get to be with each other with no one else around! For this wedding we were able to do that under the lovely marquee sign right next door at the Dilworth Neighborhood Bar & Grill. That made an amazing ending to a beautiful wedding day. Thanks to all the vendors that made it possible:

Palisades Country Club Wedding Photographer | Meghan & Mike | yah Photography by Kelli Conley

Meghan and Mike have such a timeless style. Everything about their wedding just made it so. From Meghan’s gorgeous dress, to Mike’s white suit, everything fit them and their personalities completely. I love that the two of them trusted me to photograph their day and to work with me in a way that made the whole day seamless. The rain held off for us all day even with a high percentage chance, and we were even able to sneak outside for a quick shot before the night was over! This wedding could not have been possible without all these fabulous vendors: Venue: Palisades Country Club DJ: Split Second Sound Florist: Ribald Farms Cake: Sweet Scene Cakes Ceremony Venue: St Philip Neri Catholic Church Dress: J Majors Bridal Rings: Diamonds Direct Makeup: Who’s the Fairest Hair: Vive Beauty Palisades Country Club, St Pil Palisades Country Club, St Pil Palisades Country Club, St Pil Palisades Country Club, St Pil Palisades Country Club, St Pil Palisades Country Club, St Pil Palisades Country Club, St Pil  2014-09-13_0010 2014-09-13_0011 2014-09-13_0012 2014-09-13_0013

Hilton Head Wedding Photographer | Honey Horn | Hampton Hall | Cierra & Daniel | yah Photography by Kelli Conley

Daniel and Cierra are seriously made for each other. When I first met the two of them I could tell. After spending time with them during their engagement session I saw it again, and then during their wedding I knew it for sure. What especially hit me was all that their friends and family had to say about them during the wedding and during the toasts especially. I had the pleasure of photographing their beautiful Hilton Head wedding. (Which for a little bit I was scared we wouldn’t make it too because of the traffic! Luckily the groom was in the car in front of me so I knew we were both stuck in the traffic together. And due to planning some extra time in there from the getting ready area to the ceremony site we still arrived with 10 minutes to spare even though it took us 45 minutes to get there!) And what topped off the whole wedding was that my husband Robbie was able to photograph the wedding with me. We had so much fun being silly with the bridal party, hopping on a golf cart to get around the plantation, and then playing with sparklers and twinkle lights before they headed off to their honeymoon in London! Can’t wait to see what the future holds for these two!2014-09-03_0001.jpg 2014-09-03_0002.jpg 2014-09-03_0003.jpg 2014-09-03_0004.jpg 2014-09-03_0005.jpg 2014-09-03_0007.jpg 2014-09-03_0006.jpg 2014-09-03_0008.jpg 2014-09-03_0009.jpg 2014-09-03_0010.jpg 2014-09-03_0011.jpg 2014-09-03_0012.jpg 2014-09-03_0013.jpg 2014-09-03_0016.jpg 2014-09-03_0017.jpg

Pine Lake Country Club Wedding Photographer | Emily & Kurt | yah Photography by Kelli Conley

Emily and Kurt are honestly made for each other. The two of them met in college and it was one of those relationships that was meant to be. She became his biggest cheerleader and he became her rock. The two of them live a couple hours away but made it down for the weekend right after Kurt proposed to get some engagement pictures (see more from that session here) and we were able to schedule her bridal session around my Europe trip and on a weekend she was down here (see her bridal session here). And although Emily and Kurt have been so far away and so busy with finishing school and working, the relationship I was able to create with them worked perfect. I was able to capture them, their vision for the wedding day, and their love story in such a unique and beautiful way it just made their wedding all the more special to me!2014-07-21_0001.jpg 2014-07-21_0003.jpg 2014-07-21_0006.jpg 2014-07-21_0007.jpg 2014-07-21_0004.jpg 2014-07-21_0002.jpg 2014-07-21_0008.jpg 2014-07-21_0009.jpg 2014-07-21_0010.jpg 2014-07-21_0011.jpg 2014-07-21_0012.jpg 2014-07-21_0013.jpg 2014-07-21_0034.jpg 2014-07-21_0015.jpg 2014-07-21_0018.jpg 2014-07-21_0017.jpg 2014-07-21_0016.jpg 2014-07-21_0005.jpg 2014-07-21_0021.jpg 2014-07-21_0020.jpg 2014-07-21_0022.jpg 2014-07-21_0019.jpg 2014-07-21_0014.jpg 2014-07-21_0023.jpg 2014-07-21_0024.jpg 2014-07-21_0025.jpg 2014-07-21_0026.jpg 2014-07-21_0027.jpg 2014-07-21_0028.jpg 2014-07-21_0030.jpg 2014-07-21_0029.jpg 2014-07-21_0031.jpg 2014-07-21_0032.jpg 2014-07-21_0033.jpg

Hightower Hall Wedding Photographer | McConnells SC | Kayla & Andrew | yah Photography by Kelli Conley

Kayla and Andrew (Andy) are some of the sweetest and nicest people you will meet! Through the whole wedding process Kayla has been so much fun to work with! They say that when it rains on your wedding day that is it is good luck, I truly believe this to be true, especially for Kayla and Andrew! That morning there was crazy thunderstorms in the area, Kayla had to decide if the ceremony would still be outside. She said lets go for it, and everything was set up outside. Right around an hour before the wedding it started to sprinkle, but Kayla didn’t let it get to her. We proceeded as planned, taking pictures, getting ready and wouldn’t you know that in 15 minutes it stopped, the sun came out and it was one of the most gorgeous sunsets I had seen in a while. The two of them radiated with love for one another the remainder of the night and it shows through in their pictures. I know that Kayla and Andy will have a great life together and the rain only aided to that!
