The wedding party was beautiful, small and YOUNG! It consisted of Joey’s two daughters and Jennifer’s two nieces.
The innkeepers at Little Pond Farm, Gaye and Frank Luaces, have created a perfect venue for weddings and gatherings and they’re among our absolute favorite people to work with. The small, intimate and magical setting makes it a pleasure for us to photograph and in late September, the place still shined and the weather was perfect.
Like other weddings we’ve photographed at the Inn, Jennifer and Joey’s was beautifully simple, elegant, small, centered on family, and focused on marriage. Less than 30 people attended, including us and all the venue staff. I LOVE getting to see every guest gathered around one table sharing a meal together! All that in addition to the picturesque French provincial details at every turn make for great images and memories for the bride and groom and their families.
Cake, flowers, and a private chef are all coordinated and arranged by Gaye and she accomplished her customary perfection. Between the venue and the details, this day and wedding were Martha Stewart Magazine worthy, if not better.We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs, engagements and weddings, brides, and special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.
Late last year Pixels On Paper Photography found what is sure to be one of our absolute favorite wedding venues in the NC Mountains in Valle Crucis, NC while photographing a fall wedding located at the Inn at Little Pond Farm. The Inn is a French Country house nestled in a pine grove surrounded by a mountain meadow. Like something you would see straight out of a magazine! The owners Gaye and Frank have thought of everything and created the perfect atmosphere for quaint, intimate, weddings in the NC High Country for locals and for those planning destination weddings in the NC Mountains.
Combine this beautiful location and perfect Fall foliage with the most adorable Bride and Groom and we have the ultimate dream for wedding photographers. Lucy & Glen are each in their 50s and this was the first marriage for both. They desired an intimate, fun experience with immediate family and close friends in the North Carolina mountains during the Fall season for their wedding and one that did not necessarily conform to convention.
The outdoor ceremony was followed by a candle lit reception with a 5 course dinner inside the Inn at Little Pond prepared on-site by a private chef. All the guests sat around one long farm table and enjoyed their meal together and celebrated.
We love this description directly from Lucy that describes the unique details of their wedding: “The perspective of the “perfect wedding” can change over the years. As a 50+ year old couple, we are not just starting out in our adult life. We both have experienced full, single lives. For each of us, that life included traveling to unique parts of the world. Our wedding needed to reflect a special bond and joy between two mature, independent individuals whose single life journeys will now become a shared sojourn.”
As a surprise to Lucy, Glen contacted Pixels On Paper prior to the wedding without Lucy knowing and arranged special music and extra photo time with us after the guests had departed to capture their romantic wedding dance.
