I’ve known Amanda for a few years. She is such a creative, sweet, supportive and joyful person. This was my second time meeting Derek and I found him to be a perfect match for Amanda. Derek is outgoing, funny, kind and you can tell he loves Amanda with every ounce of his being.

Amanda had the best idea for her engagement session. We met at Starbucks which was the location of their first date. Amanda and Derek said that they expected the date to be short but they ended up sitting and talking for hours. I guess you can say the rest is history.

After Starbucks we headed to downtown Winston Salem. We captured some adorable moments at Artivity and we were blessed with an amazing sunset. I cannot wait to be a part of their wedding next year.

A big thank you to Marybeth Wells of LivingWells for allowing us to use her rooftop deck for pictures! Check out her website for fitness, nutrition and wellness information.

Thank you Amanda and Derek for trusting me to capture your memories. I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them.
