Here are words that are rarely uttered: \u00a0“The whole beautiful relationship started with a conversation about \u00a0how she was a Blue Devil and I was a Tarheel”. \u00a0However, that’s exactly how we come to today, where we’re posting the images from Karen’s and Mike’s stunning Pippin Hill Farm wedding. \u00a0You see, we photographed Karen’s sister’s wedding and that was part of the initial conversations with Christina Spotts nee Richardson. \u00a0Luckily for me, our shared love of ACC basketball and her love of our photography trumped the rivalry by a wide margin.<\/p>\n
That brings us to today, almost four years later. \u00a0It’s a honor to be a part of any wedding celebration, but I have to admit that being invited to be a part of a second family wedding is a particularly sweet thing. \u00a0 To know that Karen and her family trusted us to do for her what we did for her sister means everything to Lindsay and I. \u00a0So, getting that first phone call from Christina (on Karen’s behalf) was much fun. \u00a0We were just so thrilled to be back with the Richardson family and with the opportunity to get to know the Littlefields as well. \u00a0No small part of our joy was also being reunited with Ryan Hayes, an amazing event coordinator turned good friend. \u00a0Everything about the day exceeded already high expectations. \u00a0From the Farm, to the people, to the party…we couldn’t ask for anything more.<\/p>\n
Congratulations to Karen, Mike and their lovely families. \u00a0Thank you so much for sharing the day with us.<\/p>\n
Also, we want to recognize many of the vendors who made the day possible: \u00a0\u00a0Ryan Michael Hayes of Blue Canary<\/a>,\u00a0Pat’s Floral Design<\/a>m,\u00a0Albermarle Baking Co.<\/a>,\u00a0Attraction Band<\/a>, and\u00a0Jennifer Mantura<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
