Ryan and Phillip have been on a love celebration train for the past two years. After two postponements due to the pandemic, a small backyard wedding, and a vow renewal and blessing for close friends, Ryan and Phillip finally got to celebrate their love with a public ceremony in a park near Transfer Co Food Hall! These two are Story Photographers regulars; Ashley photographed their small backyard wedding as well as their surprise engagement…

Laurie and Ivan’s July wedding at The Cotton Room in Durham, NC was truly so dreamy! This couple was SO happy to finally get married after moving their wedding multiple times because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Thankfully, they were finally able to gather and celebrate their love in this gorgeous, historic venue. 

Laurie and Ivan live out of town, so it was Laurie’s mom that did all the booking for them. Often this can make us  nervous if we haven't talked to the couple at all — we like to make a connection before the big day — but let me tell you… These two lovies are the actual sweetest and a total joy for us to work with! Honestly, the energy in the room that day reflected their energy — everyone was so full of celebration and love for these two. They were radiating! It was a treat to witness and photograph.
