Anniversary weekend hotel photo shoot

September 27, 2022

Pro tip: If you can secure a photographer for an anniversary, DO IT. Such a fun way to relive memories from your wedding day while making new ones to look back on later. That’s what Leanna and Drew did when they returned to the same hotel from their wedding night two years later. They met up with Mariela of Bella Liz Photography to commemorate the occasion with a series of fresh photos at The Proximity Hotel in Greensboro, NC. Keep scrolling to see the photos of their anniversary date from morning till night!

We got married on March 14, 2020—one of the last full weddings before the pandemic. The  text to shut down Guilford County due to Covid-19 went out during our reception, and we flew back from our honeymoon the day the border closed. We are so fortunate to have had the celebration we dreamed about and still go on our honeymoon. Our anniversary is a sweet time to celebrate our marriage, and be grateful for the time we have spent together.

To celebrate two years, we wanted to return to the hotel from our wedding night. The Proximity Hotel is beautiful, and we wanted to take full advantage of all it has to offer. We had worked with Mariela before, and I knew she would be the perfect person to capture our memories through photos. It was important this anniversary shoot felt authentic to us—coffee and jumping on the bed, getting ready together, and chasing each other down the hall to our room. Not only did she capture stunning images, but we smile looking through the pictures because of the memories they bring back. It was a perfect way to celebrate two years, and I wouldn’t have wanted to share the experience with anyone else!
