Alina and Joe had the sweetest ceremony in the sand at Croatan Beach.  This summer wedding might have been hot, but it sure was beautiful and full of laughter and love.  We did a first look at Founders Inn where Alina got ready.  We even snuck in their sweet fur-baby for a few pictures.  Y’all know I love a good doggy picture!   Then we headed over to the ceremony in the sand and the reception was at The Attic at Waterman’s.

Alina and Joe actually met in high school.  Joe was one of Alina’s first friends after moving to the area.  It was not until 11 years later that the friendship evolved into one of the sweetest relationships I have ever witnessed!  I adore these two and their ability to laugh and play will seriously fill a room with joy!   Congrats y’all!!!  I had the BEST time working with you and feel like the luckiest photographer!
