Oh Melissa and Brian. Did they know what they were getting into with me (Ashley)??
Whether they knew it or not, they were up for anything!! Brian’s sister, Carolyn, bought them a gift card with us for an anniversary/love shoot. These two are moving to Denver soon and wanted to have a shoot in their current city- Durham.
I always love getting newly weds (you can be called that until you’ve been married 5 years, right??) in front of the camera. They are so comfortable with one another and showing their love is so easy…
Melissa and Brian strive to have an AWESOME door just like this some day…
These two wanted to make sure their shoot was unique… I’d say that was accomplished with the climbing of the “silo”!!
I am sooooooo crazy about this next set. Super in love with them.
Brian and Melissa: HONESTLY- I had the best time with you two!! Back and forth, all over the American Tobacco Campus- so worth it! I hope your move to Denver is so much fun- what an amazing city! Here’s to hoping I can get you two in front of the camera again some day








































The elevator one is my favorite! We look like indie folk rockers! Ashley, mark it down on your calendar – May 2017 – we’re flying you out to Denver for a 10 yr. anniversary photoshoot, haha. Thanks again, you are amazing!
I LOVE these! Looks like you had a great time! The two with Melissa’s head on Brian’s shoulder are so great of both of you…love the close up…Melissa, could your eyes be any prettier than the one with your eyes open? How will we ever choose??? Would it be too much to get 11X14s of all of them and post them throughout our house? Ya think?
Wow, absolutely beautiful !
What a cute couple you both are!
I agree w/ Sue…you and Brian together with your eyes opened is great, but the one w/ yours closed oh my!…..you are blessed w/ beauty on the outside and inside !
Hope to see y’all before the big move. Never been to Denver, Co, but we vacationed a few yrs ago in Durango and the Silverton area. Quite nice! Can’t wait to show these to your Uncle Kenny and Cousin Jenna. love to both of you !
These are great! You two are soooooo awesome and funny. The photographer really captured your personalities! I love you bunches!
Of course I knew their pictures would be wonderful but the “about town” locations really seemed to add to the fun and emotions of the photo shoot. I just pray that God will continue to use you to bless others as he has blessed you with each other… Thank you Brian and Melissa for being who God made you to be. Also, each time I look at these pictures I continue to enjoy and appreciate the work of the photographer… thank you Ashley.
Okay so I’m slow…I love it though.
Hope your move went beautifully
