brittney & hunter :: wedding film :: benson, nc

Hunter and Brittney helped us to kick off our 2018 weddings with a beautiful winter wonderland themed wedding! The weather was fitting for the occasion....12 degrees, breezy and snow on the ground! We started the day at Stone Creek Advent Christian Church. North Carolina was experiencing record cold temperatures, but between the beautiful sunshine, the excitement of the wedding party, and the family and friends all gathered together to celebrate Hunter and Brittney you almost forgot about the chilly weather.

Hunter and Brittney's ceremony was so sweet and personal. Gathering with hundreds of friends and family they pledged their vows to each other and assembled a unity cross together before they were officially introduced as husband and wife!

After the ceremony the wedding party was brave enough to head outside for us! The sun was setting over the open field and reflecting off the remaining snow that was left on the ground, leaving everything with a beautiful orange glow.

After a few more photos and family portraits we all went to the reception where guests enjoyed an evening of good food, dancing and getting to spend time with the new Mr. And Mrs.

Brittney and Hunter, thank you for letting us be a part of your big day! We wish you all the best!

roxie & clint :: wedding film :: ahoskie, nc

Clint and Roxie's wedding was a beautiful December wedding in quaint eastern North Carolina. It was a cold but sunny day and Roxie was so stunning I'm not sure anyone even realized how chilly it was. We met the bridal party at Roxie's home church, First Baptist Church of Ahoskie, early in the day and got to spend the afternoon with them as they prepared for a beautiful ceremony and fun-filled reception. There was not an empty seat left in the church as Roxie walked down the aisle and Clint and her exchanged vows.

The evening finished with everyone dancing the night away during the reception at Beechwood Country Club with live music from The Pizazz Band.

Thank you Roxie and Clint for allowing us to be a part of your big day!

matt & katie :: wedding film :: laurinburg, nc

Katie and Matt's wedding day was one of those weddings where you could feel the emotion and excitement throughout the day. Watching Katie's sisters as they prepared her to walk down the aisle to Matt with such care and love was so sweet. You could tell they were preparing her for the day she had been so excitedly waiting for. The guys spent the afternoon getting ready as guys do which entailed a lot of joking around and picking on the groom! But when it came time for Katie and Matt to exchange gifts you could see that the anticipation of the day was becoming real and their reaction opening their gifts was priceless, and was only topped by their faces when they saw each other as Katie walked down the aisle.

Their ceremony was beautiful as the church was filled with loved ones watching the two become one. They had a lot personal touches and special moments.

The reception was fun filled with a live band, all of their close family and friends and a great evening for all! Everyone was so excited celebrating the new Mr and Mrs Gardner and we are so thankful we got to be a part of such a special night!

kayla & jonas :: wake forest, nc :: wedding

Back in August, we were honored to capture the moments, details and memories as Kayla and Jonas began their life together as Mr. & Mrs. Jonas Bailey. It was a beautiful August day, mild for a Raleigh summer, and the sun was shining as these two became husband and wife. We started the day at the Salon with Kayla and her girls as they were getting their hair and makeup done. There was no shortage of laughter and smiles as old friends reminisced and new friends and family awaited the day ahead.

We then met Jonas and his guys at the church and got to spend some time with them as Jonas anxiously awaited the moment he would see his bride. Of course, his groomsmen were happy to fill his short wait with jokes and laughter.

It was a beautiful ceremony and you could see and feel the love Kayla and Jonas have for each other and for the Lord.

The reception was hosted at The Sutherland in Wake Forest. A staple in the Raleigh wedding community, The Sutherland did not disappoint. Not only are the grounds beautiful, but the house, pavilion and staff are amazing. Kayla and Jonas welcomed their friends and family to a true southern meal complete with Cheerwine and a night of celebration and dancing!

Thank you Kayla and Jonas for allowing us to be a part of your beautiful day. We wish you both all the best in your life ahead - together!

Katelyn & Hank :: Eastern NC

Katelyn and Hank's wedding was one where you leave knowing that everyone truly enjoyed themselves and are going to remember it for awhile. We met Katelyn and her girls at her sister's house in Hobgood, NC. I must be honest, I had never heard of Hobgood before booking this wedding and as we were driving out there I could see why, but as we got farther and farther off the main road it was like we were driving into a country song. Her sister's house and farm were beautiful and as we watched the storms in the distance as they finished getting ready it was truly beautiful.

The wedding took place at The First Baptist Church in Scotland Neck, NC. Hank and his guys were a lot of fun to be around and you could feel the excitement in the air for what was to come. The church was packed full as Katelyn walked down the aisle in her beautiful dress.

The southern charm in this wedding could be seen throughout, from the magnolia leaves that were everywhere to the Embers playing at the reception. At the reception, the dance floor was never empty.

Paige and I had a great time! You can never go wrong as a videographer when you have an amazing bride and groom to capture and also a fantastic photographer to work with...thank you Kelly Parnell!

Thank you Hank and Katelyn for allowing us to be a part of your wonderful day.

erin & bryan :: wedding film :: beaufort, nc

In the age of pinterest it's hard to do anything truly unique anymore, but some how Erin and Bryan pulled it off! From the waterfront venue (which was also a HUGE boathouse) to their dog walking down the aisle, to the drone coverage and the acrobatic entrance and entertainment during the cocktail hour there was always something to keep the guests wondering what's next?! We had the honor of being a part of their memorable wedding this past April in Beaufort, NC. The day started in beautiful Morehead City, NC where the bridal party was getting ready and then took a trolley to The Boathouse in Beaufort, NC. On the drive over there was rain, but thankfully it all quickly cleared and allowed for a beautiful outdoor ceremony and great open-air reception!

One of the cool things with this video is the drone footage we got to incorporate thanks to Skyward Imaging. These guys were amazing and captured some of the surrounding area and ceremony like no other.

The Boathouse at Front Street Village is a functioning boathouse so as we were taking pictures before and after the ceremony the crew was literally picking boats up out of the water and putting them on shelves for storage. I've never seen anything like it and it made for an incredible backdrop!

Thank you Erin and Bryan for allowing us to be a part of your day!

chrstin & tyler :: wedding :: keystone, co

Paige and I have known Christin since we were all toddlers living in Florida. We grew up next door to each other but as it often goes, life took us in different directions (and all over the country). Nevertheless, we were so thankful to reconnect with Christin and her whole family as we had the privilege to document her and Tyler's incredible Colorado wedding. This wedding was nothing short of beautiful! Tyler and Christin got married in Keystone, Colorado at the top of one of Keystone's renown slopes. The day began in Silverthorne, CO as Christin, her family and her bridesmaids got ready for the big day at the home they rented during their time there. Between the cathedral ceilings, waterfront property and mountain view, there are few places we can imagine more fitting for a bride to get ready. It was a morning full of laughter and tears, family and friendship. It was filled with the moments we love to be part of - the moments that make us fall in love with photography all over again!

As the afternoon storms moved in, we made our way over to Keystone and met up with Tyler and his guys as they finished up their final touches! Though the rain delayed our gondola ride up the mountain, as soon as we cleared the last peak, the clouds parted and we were greeted by the incredible views only Colorado can offer! The ceremony took place outside, surrounded by mountain vistas and drifting clouds. It was as if the skies parted in perfect timing for this intimate mountain side ceremony, as families were honored, love was proclaimed and a young couple sealed their vows to one another!

The rest of the evening was full of joy and celebration as the happy couple and their guests danced the night away!

Tyler and Christin, thank you for allowing us to be part of your breathtaking wedding! It was truly a joy to share it with you and so many old friends! We wish you all the best in the years ahead!

morgan & ryan :: wedding film :: rocky mount, nc

Morgan and Ryan's wedding day was one of those magical wedding days we so love being a part of! We first met Morgan and the bridesmaids at her Aunt's house on a beautiful farm outside of Rocky Mount. There was much excitement and laughter as they anticipated what the day would hold. We left from there to head to Morgan's parents' house where the reception would be held later that evening. There's something very sweet and special about a wedding reception hosted on family property. It felt deeply personal and sentimental as friends and family gathered together in the front yard under a beautiful candle-lit tent, dancing and laughing the night away as the family home provided a memorable backdrop. It was a wonderful day celebrating Morgan and Ryan along with their tight knit group of friends. It made for one great reception! Whether it was the smiles, laughter and tears or the groomsmen's collective serenade to the bride - this was a day filled with love.

The night ended with a sparkler send off just in time for the rain to come, we couldn't have asked for better timing! Thank you Morgan and Ryan for letting us be a part of your special day! We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!

Celebrating 3 Years

It came as a surprise to even us as we hung out with Jade & Travis this afternoon, capturing their sweet lil' one's very first photos! Today is June 5th which means it is our 3rd anniversary! Travis was actually the one to remind us (thanks Travis!).

Though our journey started long before, June 5th, 2013 was the first official day of our photography venture, Fifth of June! As we remember our first blog post, the story of why Paige decided to pick up a camera for the first time (Thanks Meg!) we are blown away by how far we have come. We look back on what led us to begin this little business and how we came up with the name Fifth of June in the first place and we're humbled and thankful for the provision the Lord has had for us.

We're so blessed to be able to do what we do and we love it. We love our clients, we love the moments we get to capture and the memories we get to be a part of. Thank you to everyone who has been part of our story, who has supported us along the way! As we always say, it's a privilege, an honor and a blessing to be able to do what we do! So here's to three years running and many more to come!

Sincerely,

Paige & Teran

kayla & lucas :: wedding film :: hilton head island, sc

When Kayla contacted us to see if we would be available to do videography for her wedding in Hilton Head Island, SC we took out the calendar crossed out anything we might have had and immediately said YES! We love getting to do videography for weddings and we love Hilton Head! Lucas and Kayla had their wedding at the Sea Pines Resort with the ceremony on the beach and the reception in the newly renovated Beach Club. The day started overcast with a few drops of rain but by the 4:30 pm ceremony the sun was out and it was beautiful.

The setting was idyllic and watching Lucas tear up when he saw his bride for the first time coming down the boardwalk made the entire afternoon. The reception was equally beautiful, but even more fun! Lucas' side of the family is from Argentina and let me tell you, the Argentinian's know how to have a good time! It was so much fun watching the two sides of the family come together on the dance floor, smiling, laughing and having a blast!

Thank you, Lucas and Kayla as well as the Pollock and Stinson families for allowing us to be a part of your day!

Andrew & Chelsea :: Wedding Film :: Hiltons, VA

Freezing temperatures and blustering winds couldn't put a damper on Andrew & Chelsea's gorgeous Virginia wedding. From the moment we pulled up to the property of Crooked River Farms we were blown away. Rolling pastures and a beautiful venue nestled in the Appalachian mountains - it doesn't get much prettier than that. With their ceremony taking place outside, guests were treated to apple cider and hot cocoa while the huge outdoor fireplace added to the ambiance of the moment! From there the celebration continued inside the gorgeous Ohio Grist Mill, circa-1823 - this gorgeous two-story reception venue is highlighted by it's 12x12 oak beams and picturesque lighting! It was such an honor celebrating the day with this sweet couple alongside of their family and friends! Andrew & Chelsea, we wish you all the best! Thank you for allowing us to document your wedding day - it was a wonderful display of worship, beauty and love!

When Stacy contacted us about doing the videography for their wedding we were so excited. We have known Stacy's sister, Alison, and her husband Gary for a few years now - we've even had the pleasure of shooting some family photos for them! We love the Powell family and we were excited to find out that Stacy (Alison's sister) was marrying Kevin (Gary's brother). Of course, weddings are typically a family affair, but these two took the term "keeping it in the family" to a whole new level! It's always an honor being part of a couple's special day - be sure to check out the highlights of Kevin & Stacy's beautiful winter wedding!

ashley and tanner :: wedding :: Aiken, SC

My best friend got married!!! Let me say it again...MY BEST FRIEND GOT MARRIED!! Ashley and I have been best friends since the 6th grade when we both moved to NC from Florida. Middle School isn't fun for anyone, but especially when you're new to a very small town and don't know anyone so Ashley and I became fast friends. We have always talked about our husbands, weddings and future lives and to get to be there for her big day was beyond amazing! The best part was I got to just be a part of it as a bridesmaid while Paige was a one man band getting all the pictures! The wedding was in Aiken, SC at the beautiful, historic Willcox Hotel . Even though we were there during the historic South Carolina flooding, the rain held off enough that day for us to get to have the outdoor ceremony she had always dreamed of. The wedding was perfect, she was beautiful, and it was a truly magical evening! Congratulations Tanner and Ashley!

Tucker & Shannon :: Carringer Wedding

We don't often do weddings, but when we do, we're thankful for weddings like Shannon and Tucker's. It was a hot July afternoon and even though the reception was outside, it was the perfect day for a wedding. The excitement everyone had for this couple was so evident. The wedding was beautiful and the reception was a great time of celebrating the bride and groom! Congratulations, Shannon and Tucker, thank you for letting us be part of your special day!
