Today is a great day!!
It’s one of my favorite couples (ok, all the couples I have shot are my favorites :)) 10th Wedding Anniversary! Congratulations, Lydia & Olu!!!!
I can’t believe I have been spontaneously and professionally photographing for that long! They were the first couple to graciously invest a substantial amount in my services as their wedding photographer! I was introduced to them by my friend, Dolapo. I remember meeting Lydia at a coffee shop on 15-501 in Durham to discuss their upcoming wedding. We connected as service provider/client, and they chose to have me as their wedding photographer. We started with their engagement session, which we shot at 3 different locations, including the Subway restaurant where they first met. I love incorporating people’s stories into their sessions, and theirs remain one of my favorites! Months later, I had the true honor of capturing the intimate and resplendent moments of their wedding. Their palpable love connection made every moment effortlessly beautiful to capture, and my job as a photographer, easy.
Since then, it has been an honor witnessing their countless blessings! I have been privileged to photographically document multiple momentous occasions in their family. They have entrusted me to photograph multiple anniversary portrait sessions, the opening of their dental practice in Fayetteville, and the headshots of their entire staff at their Durham dental office here – https://o2dentalgroup.com/ – among other crucial events in their lives. Check them out for your dental needs! It has been a beautiful and rewarding experience working for and with them over the years!
Wishing them many more decades of a phenomenally blessed marriage!!
