Well, where to begin with describing the joy that was photographing Nichole and Eric’s downtown Wilmington wedding? Brilliant would be one word that springs to mind. Fab is another one. Amazeballs is also a solid contender. It was really chock full of authentic and beautiful moments that were lovely to see and document.

I’ve got to give mad props to Nichole for having such a great vision for her day. She definitely knew what she wanted going in and I have to say that Charyl and the team at Social Butterfly events did a first-rate job of realising Nichole’s vision. I don’t want to bang on about all the individuals who pulled together to make the day such a success – you know who you are and I appreciate each and every one of you.

I want to give a special thank-you to Nichole and Eric and their friends and family for letting me be a part of their special day. I enjoyed every last second and hope to see you all again soon!

Here are a few of my faves from the day…
