Denny & Kaitlyn’s NC Mountain Destination Wedding Photography
Denny & Kaitlyn live in Charlotte, NC but rather than have a Charlotte wedding they opted for a NC Mountain destination wedding in Hendersonville, NC. As husband and wife wedding photographers that love to travel anywhere anytime, a Hendersonville wedding was a wonderful opportunity for us to photograph in a new scenic backdrop.
The wedding venue was Raymond’s Garden Center. Raymond’s also grew and designed all the wedding flower arrangements and wedding bouquets. The ceremony was in the middle of the nursery surrounded by all the flowers and trees you can imagine. A tent was on the property for the wedding reception. Although the skies were gray and overcast the weather was perfect for wedding photography and all the colors in the gardens and coral worn by the wedding party was vibrant.
Kaitlyn and Denny shared a “first look” with with each other before the ceremony. This moment was a time to ease nerves and anxiety. It also allowed the bride and groom to have a time to themselves to relish in the moment before being surrounded by people and caught up in the rush of the rest of their wedding day. The grin on Denny’s face when he saw his bride is a memory we’ll never forget and with us photographing that moment from a distance never will they.
As the wedding ceremony began the rain also started to fall. Everyone took it in stride. Kaitlyn at one point during the ceremony looked up to the sky and smiled as if nothing was going to dampen her day. Even rain can’t take away from the beauty of NC Mountain weddings. They finalized their vows and Denny sealed it with a very romantic dip and kiss as husband and wife.
The down-pouring rain encouraged us to get creative with post ceremony wedding photos. We found a hidden treasure inside one of Raymond’s greenhouses.
After photos everyone was ready to celebrate under the shelter of the tent. And party they did. The dance floor stayed hopping all night thanks to Gordon Hensley of Digital DJs, one of our favorite wedding vendors to work with who is also located in the NC High Country.
It was such an honor to be a part of this wedding and we are grateful to Denny and Kaitlyn for choosing Pixels On Paper as their wedding photographer and allowing us to capture their photography and memories from their beautiful NC mountain destination wedding.

maggie & saeger’s charlotte wedding photography | quail hollow country club | pixels on paper
We were blessed beyond measure to photograph Maggie & Seager’s Charlotte wedding. Not just because it’s always a blessing to be the chosen wedding photographer but because Maggie is the 3rd McConnell sibling who’s wedding we have photographed. The first wedding was in 2006 when Maggie was still a teenager! We’ve shared an incredible closeness with this family and her groom Saeger is a perfect addition.
In Maggie’s own words the best thing about her wedding day: “The best thing about my wedding day was speaking my vows and hearing my best friend pledge his love forever to me! Everything went off absolutely perfect, but even if it hadn’t nothing could have made it any less special. I will never forget the sound of Saeger’s voice and his sincerity as he spoke those vows to me. That will always be my most cherished moment.”
Although both Maggie and Saeger now live in Florida, the wedding and reception took place at Quail Hollow Country Club in Charlotte only one week after the Wells Fargo Golf Tournament. For Maggie the location was special because it was just down the street from the neighborhood where she grew up. The location gave her the opportunity to introduce those from Florida to the place that she called “home”.
What made this Charlotte wedding unique was it’s southern charm and elegance. The royal blue and yellow (Maggie’s favorite) color pallet was bright and happy. Plus she had one of the most gorgeous cakes we’ve ever seen created by Wow Factor Cakes.
Our prayer for Maggie and Saeger is that their marriage will be filled with immeasurable blessings!

ashley & phil’s charlotte nc wedding
From the moment we first met Ashley and Phil in Charlotte, NC to discuss their wedding photography, we knew their wedding day was going to be a fun day. Not only did they pick one of our favorite venues, the Holiday Inn Center City, but they were also open to whatever creative ideas we came up with for their wedding photos.
From the moment the photos started with Ashley and her bridesmaids, through photos with Phil and his guys, the day just seemed to click. The Holiday Inn offers so many opportunities for great photos, the rooftop is one of our favorites, and was the perfect opportunity for Phil and Ashley to have a moment together, just them (and us of course…) before the day went into high gear.
The ceremony, held on the rooftop rotunda and lead by Reverend Patrick Malloy, went as smooth as you could ask for with nearly perfect weather. Following the ceremony and the family portraits at the ceremony site, we headed into the streets of uptown with the entire bridal party to photograph more wedding pictures.
On the Holiday Inn’s rooftop rotunda, the wedding ceremony site was transformed into the wedding reception site and the sounds from Split Second Sound DJ Derek pumped through the party. Introductions of the Bride and Groom lead straight into their first dance and then into cake smashing. Yes, it’s the moment all wedding guests egg-on, but only occasionally happens. In the end, even with wedding cake icing in the Bride’s eye, the party went on long into the night. Wedding guests enjoyed the opportunity to step into the photo booth from ShutterBooth Charlotte to capture their memories while creating a guestbook for Ashley and Phil. One final serenade of “Take Me Home, Country Roads” by John Denver ended the night as wedding guests joined together on the dance floor to send-off Ashley and Phil into newlywed bliss.
Congratulations, and a huge thank you to Ashley and Phil for the amazing wedding day!

rachel & jeremy’s charlotte wedding photography | capturing the memories of a family
We’ve worked in the Charlotte wedding industry with Rachel for many years. When it was her turn to be married and she asked Pixels On Paper to be her and Jeremy’s wedding photographer for their Charlotte wedding we were thrilled and honored that she would choose us. This wedding was one of the most emotionally touching and enthusiastic weddings we’ve photographed.
Rachel and Jeremy’s story is unique in that their love did not only involve each other but also Rachel’s daughter Sophia. A short time after Rachel gave birth to Sophia, Rachel was encouraged by her sister to get back into the dating world. Through EHarmony she met Jeremy. We all know a lot of guys that would freak out at this situation and after the first date never be heard from again. Jeremy is not one of those guys. They got to know each other for about a week, went on one date and cancelled their E-harmony memberships! Sophia joined them for their second date and it was obvious that they were meant to become an incredible little family.
Photographing this wedding was easy. In part because Rachel was the wedding planner for the Holiday Inn Center City Charlotte. Lets face it, she had thought of everything and was crazy organized! The main reason it was easy to be their wedding photographer was because the whole day in Charlotte was full of emotion, energy, details and LOVE. We think that even if you don’t personally know this couple you will surely feel the moments we captured in their wedding pictures.
Rachel and Jeremy chose to share a First Look before the wedding ceremony so that they could have a private moment before their wedding and also get as many photographs taken so that they could go to their wedding reception and start celebrating with their wedding guests sooner. We loved photographing this moment between the two of them discreetly from a distance.
The wedding ceremony was located on the roof top rotunda of the Holiday Inn Center City Charlotte. Sophia seemed to be celebrating during the ceremony just as much as Rachel and Jeremy. During their vows Jeremy also made a commitment to Sophia and gave her a necklace during the ceremony as a sign of his love to her.
We captured wedding pictures of the couple and their wedding party in and around the Holiday Inn Center City Charlotte, at one of the new center city parks in uptown Charlotte, and along the tracks of the Charlotte Lynx Light Rail which they used as transportation to the wedding reception.
The wedding reception was located just outside of uptown Charlotte at Byron’s Southend. The Michael Catlow Group provided DJ entertainment that had the wedding party and guests celebrating on the dance floor all night.
We wish Rachel, Jeremy and Sophia all the very best that life and marriage has to offer. Remember, our blog loves comments!
