Noelle + Austin | Black Balsam Knob Elopement

Noelle & Austin eloped at the foot of Black Balsam Knob surrounded by family and close friends. I met Noelle a couple of years ago at the local Leicester post office. We were both waiting to mail packages and after chatting in line, I handed her a business card and said to her, “If you ever need any photos I’d love to be the one to take them.” She contacted me at the first of the year to tell me she was engaged and was in need of a wedding photographer. She connected with Destination Elopements and plans were made for their wedding day. I photographed their engagement photos this past summer at the lovely Botanical Gardens at Asheville. With a slight time change of their wedding day, I was unable to be there to photograph their wedding, but my good friend, Paige Broome, stepped in to save the day. I’m so thankful Paige was able to photograph this sweet couples elopement and to experience this beautiful place. I’m also so impressed with the bouquet and flower crown Noelle made. She is so talented!! I am truly SO IN LOVE with these images. They are TRULY AMAZING!!

Thank you Noelle & Austin for allowing me to find a replacement for myself and still allow me to edit your wedding photos. Paige truly captured your personalities and the love you both have for each other. I wish you both a lifetime of blessings and happiness together.
