Sierra & Zach's The Barn at Blue Sky Farm Wedding Photographs in Dallas NC

Sierra and Zach are such a sweet couple who chose the gorgeous Barn at Blue Sky Farm for their special day. Their Dallas, NC wedding was filled with beautiful moments that I was lucky enough to capture. One truly magical highlight happened after dark - we created amazing light painting photography! I light painted beautiful white wings on Sierra in front of the barn, then added colorful ribbons behind the couple. The results were truly magical and unlike any standard wedding photos.



A Dream Venue in Dallas, North Carolina

The Barn at Blue Sky Farm offers a perfect backdrop for couples wanting rustic charm with elegant touches. Located in Dallas, NC, this venue combines countryside beauty with modern amenities. Sierra and Zach's choice of this location gave us so many photography opportunities.

The wooden beams, string lights, and open spaces created a warm atmosphere that showed up beautifully in their wedding photos. From getting ready moments to the first dance, every corner of this Dallas wedding venue offered picture-perfect spots.


Unique Photography Moments


Light Painting Magic

As mentioned, one of the most special parts of photographing Sierra and Zach's wedding was creating light painting photos after sunset. This technique uses long exposure photography and moving lights to "paint" designs that appear in the final image.

For Sierra, I created glowing white wings that seemed to emerge from her back as she stood in her wedding dress before the barn. Then for the couple together, I painted colorful light ribbons that swirled around them. These photos became unique keepsakes that stood out from traditional wedding albums.


Natural Settings

The farm's natural beauty provided endless photo opportunities:

  • The grand entrance with its rustic signage

  • Lush greenery surrounding the property

  • The charming barn interior with twinkling lights

  • Open fields perfect for romantic sunset shots
