Photo Ops for Summer Weddings
When planning any wedding, photo spots are extremely important. After all, you are going to be looking at these photos for the rest of your life. Between finding a great spot for summertime to shine through, and also making sure there is plenty of shade around in between shots to keep cool, locating the perfect spot can sometimes be hard. Not to worry - we've got a couple ideas that will check both those boxes and create the perfect scene for your summer wedding photos.

- Bell Tower Green: Located in Salisbury, N.C., is the city's newest park, the Bell Tower Green, and already it has been the chosen spot for countless wedding photos. There is no question as to why, either. From the bell tower itself, creating a perfectly elegant backdrop, to the spacious lawn with a gorgeous waterfall feature, no matter what angle, your photographer will have plenty to work with to capture this special time in your life.
- Dr. Josephus Hall House: This Rowan County staple has been around since 1820, and its character has only grown with time. On its grounds, you'll find a shaded lawn that's pleasing to the eye, a quaint outdoor patio area, and tons of history.
