– Charlie and Camellia –

A fun couple needs a fun portrait session. These are the NC State Fair engagement pictures of Charlie and Camellia. Come along as they ride and eat their way through the fair in back in 2016. The state fair is a great location for portraits or fun candid pictures you won’t be able to have anywhere else. If you are planning your own NC State Fair engagement session, I have a few recommendations. First, go during the week. The weekends are just too packed to take portraits. Early in the week you have walking room and don’t have to stand in line for rides or food as long. Second, give your self about three to four hours. The session is not going to be any shorter than 2 hours with all the walking and crowds. Having golden hour portraits and nighttime portraits are a must!

One of my favorite parts of shooting at the NC State Fair is the rides. Putting a couple on a ride together is always a great photo opportunity and always brings them closer together.

After eating all the food and riding the fast rides, Charlie and Camellia walked it all off and waited for the fireworks.
