Highgrove Estate Photography – Rachel’s Bridal Session

This past Saturday, I closed out the 2024 season with my final full wedding of the year photographing Rachel & Henry’s wedding at Highgrove Estate in Fuquay-Varina. So I’m now able to share a few of my faves from Rachel’s bridal session at the same venue from a few weeks back.

Rachel looked amazing in her dress and I knew we were going to get some great photos. To start off, we knocked out a few more “traditional” photos before going on to have some fun experimenting with something a little different to the norm. Every bride and every session is different and I like my photos to reflect that.

You can see Rachel has a great look and she is a real natural in front of the camera. Here are just a few of my faves from the shoot…
