Aimee and Gus’ wedding day will always have a special place in my heart and was such a beautiful end of Summer!

These two adventurous souls became husband and wife in the heart of Pisgah Forest at the gorgeous Pilot Cove Cabins and Amphitheater. Aimee and Gus are both avid outdoor lovers and athletes. Aimee is an amazing ultra runner and Gus loves to mountain bike– so it was only fitting to exchange vows in the mountains they love surrounded by their closest friends and family. After exchanging vows and rings, and sharing their first kiss, Aimee and Gus celebrated in true Aimee and Gus fashion with a laid-back outdoor reception with plenty of wildflowers and PIZZA.

Sam and Ken live in Greenville, South Carolina, and love to visit the restaurants and breweries downtown!

When we first started talking about their engagement session, we tried to think of some scenic locations nearby, as those are usually my go-to being the outdoors lover that I am. I also always love incorporating places or things that are sentimental or important to the couple— places that are significant in their journey (first date location/where they got engaged etc.) or places they love to go together. With that in mind, we decided to meet up downtown and do a little “date night,” themed session, and I absolutely loved it!
