REAL WEDDING | Elegant Duke University Wedding | Thirteenth Moon Photography

I don’t know if many people know this but I’m a science nerd, yep I have a Biology degree.  But the funny part was when I was in college I got my bio degree but I also was in charge of the organization that did all the social events on campus. So for me I merged my love of science with my fun and bubbly social side.  And that’s exactly what today’s couple did. They are both math heads but they have a love for dancing.  So of course their wedding would be a balance of both.  Here’s to all my peps with a geek side but loves to party and get down!

April & Danny

From the Photographer: April and Danny are both self described Math geeks. They met in grad school at Eastern Carolina University where they are both now Math professors. Their love evolves around numbers and all things that just make sense.  At times it’s hard to break them but the other thing they LOVE is TO DANCE.  Danny is a nation award winning Zumba instructor and April will follow is lead anywhere.  These two wanted an elegantly done wedding which they allowed their talented team of wedding professional to lead and then they wanted to dance the night away.  The one thing they didn’t plan was the severe thunderstorms that pushed their outdoor ceremony indoors.  The Washington Duke Inn offers a beautiful back up location though however the rest of the evening was a complete wash out with severe lighting and torrential downpours.  The couple kept smiling and we managed to get outside for a few night time shots right towards the end of the evening just as the rain finally let up.
