I had the pleasure of photographing the home of John and Robin Gallagher for the November/December 2025 issue of Chapel Hill Magazine. I have a huge passion for architecture, so it’s incredibly fun for me to photograph editorial pieces centered around both amazing architecture and also the couple’s love of their home. John and Robin are truly incredible people and it was a joy getting to know them and photograph their incredible space. Please read more about their life and home in the “Sculpting Home” piece, starting on page 102. You can find Chapel Hill Magazine online or pick up a copy locally!

Ahhh, it’s been 6 years since I last shot a wedding, so it was a fabulous walk down memory lane to photograph people in wedding outfits again, freshly post-courthouse, with a dog and bouquet in tow. :) I had the BEST time with Adair and Andrew, who are two Durham-loving peas in a pod. They were married at the county courthouse that morning, and we met in the evening to photograph them walking around the city where they met and now call home. Nola, their sweet, and calm doggo, joined us. She was accompanied and handled by Katie, a beloved mutual friend of both mine and Adair, when she wasn’t looking extremely adorable while posing for little treats in the photos. We had a lot of fun talking snacks, scary movies, and their upcoming family wedding in Florida. They handled my incessant getting-to-know-you questions and my posing of them in bright, hot sunlight like champs, and I’m so glad that I got to meet them and document the first few hours of their newlywed life together. A huge congratulations to Adair and Andrew!

I first met Andrea when working with Big Dog Little Bed earlier this year and we clicked right away (of course, because Janice only works with the best people!). So I was very excited when Andrea asked me to come over to her and her husband Patrick’s incredible home to photograph them doing what they do best: cooking, playing piano, reading, and living in this beautiful space. But, most importantly, I was also there to document their time with their new adopted rescue dog, Daphne. :D Daphne and I also became fast friends – she is a friendly, spunky, food-motivated little lady who enjoys watching Patrick cook (because then she gets little treats), snuggling up with Andrea on the couch, and playing fetch in the yard. She follows them triumphantly around and seems to consider this her house that Andrea and Patrick are just crashing, and isn’t that really always the case? :) Big thanks to Andrea and Patrick for asking me to come out and document this new time in their lives with their first pet in their amazing new Durham home!
