Graylyn Wedding in Winston - Ashley & Kyle

Jan 13, 2021

Although their Graylyn wedding was right here in Winston Salem, Ashley and Kyle actually met at Ohio State. Many of their guests traveled from Ohio and Michigan to witness their wonderful day together. Don’t worry, no heated football arguments broke out! The whole day was one beautiful scene after another, but there was one unforgettable highlight: instead of one cake, they had a whole table full of sweet treats – our kind of party! Thanks for sharing your day with us, Ashley and ...

Garden at Gray Gables Wedding - Katherine & Simon

Dec 04, 2020

We were extremely excited to photography Katherine & Simon’s Garden at Gray Gables Wedding. With Katherine’s talented paper flower design skills and the fact that she intended to wear a blue dress, we knew we were in for a beautifully unique event! Simon, a Navy pilot, dressed up in his snazzy whites for their wedding, which looked fantastic next to Katherine’s gown. With blue material and custom white leather detailing on her, clean white lines on him, ...

Greensboro Wedding Photography - Kristen and Joe

Aug 26, 2020

What a wonderfully joyous wedding Kristen and Joe had at The Chapel at Canterbury School! Kristen wanted a boho-chic look, and wow did she get it! Check out her gorgeous dress and the details from the reception. What an elegant mix of bohemian and glamour. And we were moved to tears from her note after she received her photos: WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Joe and I just got back from our honeymoon yesterday, and so we just now had a chance to sit down together and look at the ...

Gracie's Bat Mitzvah at The Proximity

Mar 02, 2020

Mazel Tov to Gracie and her family! We had the honor of photographing Gracie's Bat Mitzvah party at the Proximity Hotel last week. The whole evening was a party, with friends and family joining in (even some digitally!). We started out with portraits of Gracie and the fam in the lobby, and then Alex from K2 Productions packed the dance floor with his DJ skills. Fun fact: Show tunes are really popular with teens! Especially Hamilton. So it was no surprise that when Gracie's mom had managed to ...

A Bella Collina Wedding - Abigail and Josh

Feb 26, 2020

As photographers, we meet a lot of people. Everyone's different, but hearing the stories of brides planning their wedding day never gets old. We are privileged to have a small peek in to the things that make them swoon - It's one of the reasons we love being in an industry of service! It's always our goal to capture the sweet moments that make their day truly reflect them. Although we are constantly meeting with brides, meeting with Abigail was one of the more memorable. This girl is ...

A Homeplace of Browns Summit wedding - Caroline and Matt

Feb 19, 2020

We love photographing at new places! We had heard of The Homeplace of Browns Summit, but had not yet had the pleasure of photographing there. Thankfully, Caroline and Matt had us along for their big day! As you can see, Caroline and Matt had a sweet time (hello, wall of donuts!) the whole day. Surrounded by lots of friends and family, they said their vows under an autumn sky, and then in the charming barn, they partied into the night! Thanks you two, we had a wonderful ...

A Starmount Country Club wedding - Meredith and Steven

Feb 12, 2020

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a record! It's official, Meredith and Steven's bridal party are now the holders of "largest bridal party" in McCardell Photography history! We usually say that we specialize in bridal parties "from 2 to 22," but this group shattered even those numbers. With 14 bridesmaids, 14 groomsmen, and the bride and groom, we have a total of 30! The most in our 15+ years of photographing weddings. Now, you may say to yourself, "I don't even know 14 people." Well, Meredith and ...

A Greensboro Country Club wedding - Maggie and Justin

Feb 05, 2020

Well, if we were ever under pressure to capture some amazing wedding photographs, this was the time! You see, Maggie just so happens to be our son's 4th grade teacher. So... his grades hung in the balance! Plus, we had photographed her sister's wedding, and there were several former couples we photographed in attendance, so we were rightfully nervous. Just kidding, of course! We're not sure there could have been less pressure on us. It felt more like a family reunion than a day of work! Maggie ...

An Adaumont Farm Wedding - Shelby and Tanis

Feb 03, 2020

Shelby and Tanis' wedding at Adaumont Farm was simply amazing! As you can see from the wedding photographs, the weather cooperated wonderfully, and everyone was all smiles. Shelby looked amazing, and Tanis' BMW (check out the special license plate!) made for a great prop, along with the amazing natural surroundings. We loved capturing all the special details, moments, and everything in between. Take a look at some of our favorites, and leave some love for the happy ...
