Asheville Wedding Adventure Session | Max Patch | Megan + Will

max patch wedding photo adventure session Our first season as Asheville wedding photographers is drawing to a close and weddings (+ fun adventure day after sessions) like Megan and Will’s make me so happy about our decision to move south!! Soon I will be sharing their gorgeous wedding at Asheville’s, Crest Center & Pavillion but today I am excited to share this gorgeous adventure session that we went on, the day after their wedding. I met up with them on a gorgeous fall afternoon at Wicked Weed’s Funkatorium where they were celebrating with some friends. We took a couple photos inside the Funkatorium, despite being very busy there were a few nooks a crannies we found to take photos in! asheville engagement photos at wicked weed funkatorium asheville engagement photographer wicked weed brewery asheville wedding photos at wicked weed funkatorium After our time in Asheville at the Funkatorium we jumped in cars and headed up to Max Patch located in the mountains near Hot Springs NC. In all my years living in Asheville and the countless number of hours I spent adventuring in the surrounding mountains… I cannot believe that I never found my way to Max Patch.

It also meant that light was fading evening faster as the sun set. I think we ended up shooting for about 45 minutes before it was to dark to continue.. Probably a good thing since everyone was getting hungry!
