Chestnut Ridge Wedding in Canton,NC – Meredith + Eric

by | Aug 15, 2018 | Wedding

Meredith and Eric’s Chestnut Ridge wedding was an epic day that we will always remember. Such an awesome couple in an awesome venue! I know I’ve said it before but when a bride that was a bridesmaids at a previous wedding of ours books us for hers that is the greatest compliment that we can ever get. We first met Meredith when we photographed her sisters wedding. Getting to work with her family and friends (which we think the world of) again was truly a blessing. From the engagement session, to her awesome bridal session, to their amazing wedding, it has been a blast getting to hang out with these two and get to document their journey!

Please enjoy some of my favorites from their big day!
