A GORGEOUS Wing Haven Gardens Engagement Session | Ashley and Kenneth | Charlotte NC Wedding Photographer

filed in

With technology advancing, I’ve been seeing more and more of my couples meeting through online dating. It didn’t work out for me, BUT it did help push me in the direction of Chad 😉 Just like I’d been talked into trying out online dating by friends, Ashley’s girlfriends were insisting that she give it a go. Sooooo, she did! With Ashley and Kenneth, they had both decided to try out Tinder, which is an app where you swipe right if you find that person interesting, and swipe left to move on. It will show you the folks that also swiped right on your profile, so you can talk to someone that is also interested in you that you were interested in to begin with! Ashley and Kenneth both had swiped right on each other’s profiles, and the rest was history! They both work for their families, so the night of their first date, as luck would have it, Kenneth got stuck at work. Ashley told him not to worry, that she needed to grab a birthday gift for her friend, so he ended up finally meeting her for the first time inside a jewelry store! And it was love.

For this portion of their engagement session, we headed to the rose garden area of Wing Haven. If you’ve never been to Wing Haven, you must go! It’s absolutely gorgeous, and a sweet little spot tucked inside the middle of a neighborhood near uptown Charlotte. Chad and I actually had our own photos there, but we had no idea there were two whole sections that we never discovered! Ashley talked about this circular bench that surrounded a tree somewhere on the property, which is exactly how we discovered these spots. And it was glorious. It’s funny how you can walk one way and think the lighting is terrible, but sometimes, you have to look back down the path you just traveled to see the beauty that awaits you. They were leading me, and I told them to keep walking because the lighting there was just SO. HARSH. But as I photographed them just off that path, I looked back to see this golden light flowing down waiting for us even though we’d literally just come from there. I had them walk back, and my oh my…. It was the most perfect end to our day!
