Morganton, NC Family Photography/Photographer/ Autumn Olive Photography/Morganton, NC. Covering Asheville and beyond.

I had the opportunity to photograph this family in Morganton at the Greenway!  What a beautiful family!  I really enjoyed getting to know you all and enjoy! :)

 

 

My camera loved her and I am pretty sure she loved the camera! So cute!! :)

Did I mention how much personality this 8 year old has!! :)

What a beautiful family..honestly, they could be on a magazine cover! :)





Just a few more images from this fun Asheville, NC engagement session. :)

 

 





I met Nathan and Sara this week in Asheville to photograph their engagement session! It was such a beautiful day out and the lighting was perfect!!  They have such a cute story as to how they met too!  He was her car dealer! :)  Here are a couple peeks from their session! Enjoy! :)

 





What a perfect wedding!  Jessica and Max are sooo happy together and the wedding party was a blast to be around! Even though it rained the whole day, the wedding still turned out perfect!  Here are just a handful of my favorites….more to come! :)

 

 

 

 

Jessica’s dad sang a song to her before giving her away….there wasn’t a dry eye around!  Oh, and I love how Max is looking at Jessica too! :)

I LOVE LAUGHTER! :)  Here are some pictures from their session…it was soooo hard to pick some of my favorites so here are some for a preview! More to come! :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 





 

Wedding season is fast approaching and I am so excited to share with you the stories and images of all the couples we already have booked for the 2010 season, and look forward to meeting the couples that still plan on booking for the 2010 season!  I must admit, I LOVE MY JOB!  I love getting to know new couples and capturing one of the most important days of their life!  It is like capturing their family history!  LOVE IT!! :)
Starting this week, I thought it would be fun to cover the  different “options” a couple has to take advantage of leading up to their wedding and shortly after.  
 
Engagement photos are usually one of the first things a couple thinks about doing once they are engaged.  The most common question I get asked is, “when is the best time to get engagement photos done?”My opinion is that it honestly does not matter and is up to the couple.  Some couples like to wait for a particular season (like spring or fall).  Others like to get it done right after they get engaged. Some like to wait for their summer tan, others prefer to try to catch the snow!  Whatever makes you feel great is what you should do! :)
 
I always recommend to allow at least 2 months between your engagement session and your wedding.  This allows enough time to order your images and get an announcement put in the paper before your wedding day.  If you are looking at having an engagement image on your “Save the Dates”, then it is recommended to have your engagement session at least 4-5 months in advance. 
 
Engagement Session Advice:
*Remember, you do not have to match your partner…wear clothes that represent you and that you are comfortable in!
*Solids are better than prints.
*Bring an extra set of clothes to change into….some like casual, some like it formal, some like it fun…..so bring a couple outfits to make sure you get the look you are striving for!
*Pick a location that you feel comfortable at.  A park you always visit, your home, a cafe you are a regular at….these all make for some great photo ops!
*THE MOST IMPORTANT THING….be yourself! Cuddle, hold hands, have fun….the best images come when the couple is at ease and you are having as much fun as the photographer! :)
 




Here are a few more previews from this family session! It was so much fun to see a “new” little family interact and the way they looked at their daughter was priceless!
