Chris and Astrid are fun, playful, sexy, emotive and one of our favorite couples. First of all, Nags Head, North Carolina is a beautiful place to get married. The smell of the beach in the air, the feel of the sand beneath your feet and the sound of the waves magically puts you at ease. What an AWESOME choice! Did we say we LOVE destination weddings?

Chris and Astrid are the latest in the coolest of couples we have chosen to work with. They value photography so they gave us the best gift ever — time for images at the beach!!! It is just the best that they are not afraid to show how they are feeling, and it’s clear their love is strong and here to stay. We are soooo very happy that they aren’t afraid to share that love with their friends and family — we feel honored that we were able to document their day. We love the images we were able to capture of them both. Thank you so much for being soooo very easy to work with and allowing us to be such a big part of your lives. You guys are absolutely the best!!

Things we loved:

With Hurricane Hannah sashaying all over North Carolina, these two were cool as cucumbers — we love that!
We found ourselves tearing up on more than one occasion. Astrid caught us when she was read the love note from Chris — we just couldn’t help it. Our thoughts turned to our Poppy during Astrid’s dance with her father — so very sweet.
We got quite the chuckle at Chris wearing his game over shirt.
We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that they had SOOOO many family and friends come, even with the Weather Bureau saying Hannah was going to be a direct hit. Well, Hannah took a detour and everyone enjoyed this one of a kind event. We love that their family and friends were such great support!
All of the bridesmaids were sooooo friendly and helpful — not to mention goooorgeous!
The groomsmen popping ‘one last drink to Chris’ freedom’ right after the processional! What a great group of guys!!!
The SUN — it totally cooperated and popped out right when Chris and Astrid said “I do”
At the end of the day, we were rewarded with this indescribable sunset. We don’t even think that the images do it justice as it was so beautiful!!!!
