Behind the Scenes Capturing a Full Wedding Day Photo & Video Vlog Ep. 02

Behind the Scenes of a Beautiful Wedding Day at The Umstead Hotel and Spa in Cary, North Carolina | Episode 2
Come behind the scenes with me as I capture an absolutely breathtaking wedding day at the Umstead Hotel and Spa! Using 4 cameras, two tripods, and a dual harness, I was able to document every precious moment of this unforgettable day, making sure I didn’t miss a single detail. From the intimate pre-ceremony moments to the grand celebration, I’m thrilled to share how everything came together so beautifully.

The stunning florals by Xela Florals were the perfect complement to the natural beauty of the venue, truly enhancing the entire atmosphere. The ceremony was made even more magical with live string instruments setting a romantic tone, and then the party really got started when DJ Harlem took over the reception, keeping the energy high all night long.

A huge thank you to Elizabeth Flank Designs for their incredible planning and coordination – their hard work and vision truly elevated the entire experience. I'm so grateful to have been part of this beautiful wedding day and can’t wait to share these behind-the-scenes moments with you all!

Thank you to the Alicia and James for trusting me with your memories and allowing me to share your sweet story with the world.
