We were so excited about photographing Karina and Devin’s wedding on the Outer Banks this weekend. You couldn’t ask for better weather, and it’s just indescribable how lovely it is to be surrounded with so many people who are having a great time and sharing the love. Here are a few photos from Karina and Devin’s special day!

Karina takes some time to chant meditatively before the ceremony.

I loved her veil.

Karina’s fabulous dress is from an exclusive designer in Spain. It was breathtaking!

The ceremony was traditional yet wonderfully unique to Karina and Devin.

Sigh. I’m going to miss this place.

Don’t forget to check out her awesome shoes!

The cake was every bit delicious as it looks.

Their faces pretty much sum up the day.

It was hard to take pictures without unconsciously swaying along with them to the music.

Thanks so much for letting us be a part of your day, Devin and Karina! Congratulations, and have a blast on your honeymoon!

Some friends of ours offered to let us use some of their land for gardening this year, so after four hours hard labor and one sunburn later, we’re halfway done! That’s 64 seeds of corn, 55 cabbage, and about 100 potatoes. We’ll have to go back another day to finish the rest of the potatoes and plant peas. I don’t think pictures of little mounds of dirt would be very interesting to you, but I did take some pictures from around the farm.

While I was grumbling that honeybees don’t stand still enough to pose for pictures very well, I realized that the bees thought my big camera was some kind of threat to the nest. I stood in a swarm that landed by my shirt and hair (luckily none of them stung me) to get this shot before running away like a character in a comical silent movie.

It’s hard to believe that these three little pigs will each be 250 pounds in just a few months!

I believe Corey is wondering in this photo just how long I’m going to keep taking pictures instead of getting down to business. So, do you have a green thumb? What have you planted this year? We’d love to hear all about it!
