This magical scene is just one of many belonging to Megan and Roan on their beautiful wedding day. Eight or so years ago I would have never imagined that I would one day be photographing Megan Yates' wedding or have the ability to take such a photo in the first place. Megan was probably around 14 years old when we first met and I was photographing her big sister Amanda's track team, dreaming about owning my own business and being a 'real' photographer. It's so crazy and amazing how some dreams really do come true :)

If you've been following us for a while you might remember Megan & Roan's engagement photos, which I believe were the first of many engagement sessions done at our farm. OR, Megan is one of four sisters, we did Amanda's wedding in 2008. 

Megan & Roan's wedding took place in Newland, NC and here are just a few of our favorite images!

Getting ready. If I had to say my number one favorite thing about this wedding it would be Megan's hair!! Megan is a hairstylist and so of course her hair had to be phenomenal! It was crazy, awesome, beautiful and totally Megan

Love that hair and I'd die for her skin -- we did zero retouching!

The four sisters and their beautiful momma. I always say they're the sassiest girls I know!! And hilarious too!  Alyssa (the youngest) was especially sassy that day ;)

Megan & Roan were following us after the ceremony to the reception, where we planned on taking the shots if just the two of them. On the way over, Dan happened to glance over and see this GEM of a spot (he always finds the best places!!) We just had to pull over!
