When Caroline and Mike were dating, the first winery they went to together was Stone Tower Winery. While there, they saw a wedding going on and both thought how lovely it would be to get married there. Now, here they are years later having their very own dream wedding at this stunning venue! Even the rain in the forecast couldn’t diminish the joy surrounding their big day! 

Another weekend, another amazing wedding!! This time I traveled all the way up to Leesburg for Caroline and Mike’s stunning Stone Tower Winery wedding! This was my first time there and it is a beaut! Even in the rain, it was stunning! Getting to explore and shoot at new places is worth the many hours spent on the road! 

The 4th Audrey Rose Workshop has already come and gone!! How is that possible?! This one was a little bitter sweet as it is my last workshop for a good while with the arrival of Baby Deyerle fast approaching. But it was so sweet because I got to bring him along with me in my tummy all day! Each workshop is so different and so great in different ways! Each new group of attendees brings a new and different dynamic to the day. We even had our first guy for this workshop! He was such a trooper spending the whole day with a bunch of girls! 

After what’s been a pretty wet summer here in Virginia, the hot sun on Krissy and James’ wedding day was a welcome surprise! Krissy and James’ wedding was classy from start to finish. From the simple classy details to the actual locations of the day- The Cathedral of the Sacred Heart and The Jefferson Hotel! Two iconic Richmond spots! With a classic Richmond trolley to shuttle them in between, of course! 

After a few weeks off, it’s back to work! I’ll often have a littler break in the middle of the summer as weddings are usually fewer because of the hot weather! It’s funny how even just 3 weekends of not shooting a wedding makes me feel rusty when I shoot again! But it always comes right back to me, like riding a bike! Krissy and James’ wedding took place at some of my favorite Richmond locations and was such a great day! 

I have always loved the idea of doing a fun gender reveal when we would get pregnant one day. But with Branden being an Ob/Gyn resident, I knew it would be hard to keep the gender from him since he would easily be able to spot it during ultrasounds. And I didn’t want him to not be able to watch those early ultrasounds, so I figured it was just something we wouldn’t be able to do.
