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!

ashley + kevin {uptown charlotte wedding pictures} | pixels on paper
Having already shot Kevin and Ashley’s engagement photos back in July, we knew that this was going to be not only a fun wedding, but one that promised to give us some great portfolio material with loads of awesome wedding pictures. And they did not disappoint! Ashley was simply stunning and Kevin brought a whole new meaning to the GQ style. You can just tell when couples are “made for each other,” and these two definitely are.
A touching ceremony on the rooftop rotunda at the Holiday Inn Center City Charlotte, in which there were few dry eyes, led into a jumping party in the ballroom. Split Second Sound provided the music, with MC/DJs Rashaad and Neil keeping the party going all night. Kevin even jumped in on the mic to sing along and entertain friends on more than one occasion!
We are so thankful to have been a part of Ashley and Kevin’s special day, and look at the fantastic wedding photos we have to add to our collection! They put their trust in our creative photography to capture their day and told us to “do what you do” and we could not be any happier with what we were able to capture. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Ellis!
In case you missed them, be sure to take a look at Ashely & Kevin’s gorgeous engagement pictures!

kirsten + nate {wedding pictures} | creative photography by pixels on paper
Kirsten and Nate are one of the most down-to-earth, easy-going, nicest couples we’ve had the good fortune of photographing. Getting to know them over the past year has been like a reunion with old-friends. They are totally in to each other. Every time Nate looks at her you can see the love and how much he wants to be her everything. And Kirsten always has the huge smile and big laugh whenever with Nate you can see that he is her happiness. Oh how lucky we are to see these love stories unfold into true life and capture the images as they go along. We look forward to seeing their marriage grow and to whatever photo sessions we get to capture during their future journey.
Rachel Samuelson and her coordinating staff at the Holiday Inn Center City Charlotte took care of everything for Kirsten and Nate’s outdoor wedding with a rooftop ceremony and ballroom reception (a great decision made the day of to move inside due to thunderstorms that arrived mid-reception). The pace and high-energy party was orchestrated by the awesome skills of Bethany McDonald of All The Right Grooves. Its still exciting for us to be in middle of everything capturing wedding pictures that are going to tell their story for generations to come.
Congratulations to the newlyweds! We are happy to share their wedding photos with you.
Despite the rain at the end of the night, these two were determined to get a shot with the Charlotte skyline! Also view their engagement photos or view and order more wedding photos on our proofing site.
