Nerissa and Colin

It was a chilly November day when I met up with Nerissa and Colin at Jeddah’s tea before taking some engagement photos. This Durham tea shop is one of the couples favorite spots, and it is in the center of Downtown Durham. After sipping on some tea lattes, we wandered around mural covered streets and parking decks. I listened as Colin talked of their romantic trip to Asheville, and we laughed about the perfect way he proposed while they were folding laundry together. We discussed our favorite Durham restaurants and our families.

I really love these sessions. I get to learn a couple’s beat and rhythm, their sense of humor. It get to see their go-to date night spots. And from there, I do my best to create an environment that will make help my clients comfortable enough to be themselves.

So excited to shoot these guys’ wedding!
