NCMA Elopement in Raleigh, NC

M & H’s NCMA Elopement in December

I can’t share that much about this private NCMA elopement from just before Christmas, but I did get approval from M & H to share a few of my favorites from their ceremony and wedding portraits. I can also share the fact that the ever wonderful Magical Weddings by Carly officiated!

I love the North Carolina Museum of Art grounds all year round, but in the winter I think they’re extra special. There aren’t quite as many people around, and the leaves are gone, so the trees match the stainless steel tree sculpture called Askew, which is where M & H exchanged vows and rings.

Riding these folding bicycles is one of the couple’s favorite things to do (they even rode them from the parking lot over to the ceremony), so we obviously incorporated them 🙂

I love this one. A little bit of fun double exposure magic 🙂

That’s all I’ve got for you on this sweet little NCMA elopement.

And with that, you’ve seen my last wedding of 2020. What a year huh? I know it sucked for the most part, but I seriously did love all the Covid weddings – micro-weddings, intimate weddings, backyard weddings, elopements, etc. that we were lucky enough to photograph. Keep reaching out to us about your elopements and tiny weddings! And check out our listing on ElopeNC!
