One of the things I love about this job is how it takes me all over! On Friday I was shooting a blush wedding in Downtown Hampton, then the next morning I was driving into the mountains for Ethan and Anisha’s wedding in Lexington! Just wait until you see the backdrop that they not only got married in front of, but also danced the night away alongside! 

This wedding really had me reminiscing over my time at JMU for many reasons. First, it’s where Ethan and Anisha met! JMU played such a big role in their love story and their own lives that they also made it a part of the wedding! With lavender dresses and gold accents and their entire JMU clan joining in their wedding celebration AND breaking out the fight song- these two definitely bleed purple! My time at JMU is also where I fell in love with the gorgeous blue ridge mountains! You just can’t beat that view- it’s like a painting! And I’ve never seen a view of those mountains quite as jaw dropping as the view from Irvine Estate!

Ethan is the cousin (well, technically second cousin) of Ashley from the super talented husband-wife videography duo, The Herrintons! I was so flattered when Ashley sent Ethan and Anisha my way! They have been such a treat to get to know over this past year, and getting to work with Ashley and Tyler again was the cherry on top! Ethan and Anisha had a beautiful summer afternoon for their wedding day at Irvine Estate- even though it was calling for rain all afternoon! So happy for this two to be entering this new journey together!! 





A double peony boutonniere?? Yes, please!  







When Ethan turned around, Anisha immediately ran up to him and jumped in his arms! 



















That view!!
