Why not mix wedding photography with family vacation?  Having two weddings to photograph at the Mountain Magnolia Inn in two days back to back, I decided to bring my family and stay two nights at the beautiful Broadwing Farm in Hot Springs, NC.  We did all sorts of fun things like going out to eat at the Iron Horse, hiking on the Appalachian Trail, riding back roads through Pisgah and Cherokee National Forests, dipping our toes at paint creek, spotting great blue herons, hanging out with our friends, soaking in the mineral bath hot springs, and best of all, just relaxing at our sweet cabin.
