Meredith College and NC Museum of Art Engagements in Raleigh, NC | Ruthie and Addison

May 18, 2021

Engagement photos on Meredith College Campus in Raleigh, NC

I took Ruthie and Addison’s engagement photos almost a full year ago when I was in the height of craziness with covid-reschedules plus just the general busy season, so I never got a chance to blog them! Their wedding is coming up fast this month and I cannot WAIT! 

Ruthie is a girl after my own heart, with a love for details and a good margarita and Addison is responsible for running some of my favorite restaurants in Goldsboro, NC. They as a couple are so ambitious and love a good time (especially if it’s in Charleston). They’re another true “Meredith College, NC State” love story because they met while they were in college over a snow day weekend. 

We actually started their session on Meredith’s campus, which is absolutely gorgeous!!! The chapel is so cute and with the falling leaves it was even prettier. They’ll be getting married at the Leslie Alford Mims House this May so it was fun to get some more “fall” themed photos before we have their spring ones! 

Once we were done on campus, we headed over to the NC Museum of Art for photos in the fields and changing trees. I loved the variety of locations that we were able to get even in just two locations. 

I can’t wait to show Ruthie’s bridals either but their engagements will have to do for now 🙂 I’m counting down the day until May 29!!!
