Sierra’s NC State Graduation Portraits It’s almost time for NC State Graduation (and UNC & Duke & everywhere for that matter), which means the campus is crawling with seniors in red robes getting their grad photo sessions done.

I shot a beautiful bridal portrait session in Wilmington recently and had the most wonderful time hanging out with some other photographers and Kristen, our model for the shoot.
