What a perfect way to cap off my 2018 season! A warm December afternoon, perfect amount of clouds during portrait time, a sweet couple and wedding party and a 10-minute commute from my house! Can’t beat that! With my being 35 weeks pregnant at this wedding, we did have a plan b in place in case something should happen that kept me from being able to shoot it. But luckily, baby was still cooking nicely and I was able to shoot Katie and Clark’s wedding no problem! 

You may remember seeing some sneak peeks from the gorgeous styled shoot that I got to photograph back in August alongside my workshop attendees! This group of attendees were in for a treat with the styled shoot that Jamie of Jamie Leigh Events put together at The Hermitage Museum in Norfolk! This is the first […]

Sarah and Matt’s wedding day was a chilly breezy one, but I’ll take a cold wedding day over a wet one any day! Their wedding day was sweet and laid back, just like they are! They even incorporated their love for dogs (they have 3!) in their wedding in more ways than one! 

You may have noticed that I am often in the mountains on the weekends for wedding and shoots. Especially this year. Doing so has really deepened my appreciation for the beauty of the Virginia mountains. I went to college for 4 years in the mountains (Go Dukes!), but never really appreciated the beauty of the scenery all around us. That’s not the case for Rachel and Matt. They have a deep appreciation for the mountains which is why they chose to get married at a venue that really highlighted that beauty! Even though neither of them or their families even live in the area!

What a sweet sweet wedding Erin and Kienan had. A gorgeous Charlottesville mountain venue, cool fall temps, the perfect layer of clouds all day and the sweetest couple! The way that Erin and Kienan look at each other could make even the biggest cynic believe in love. After years of long distance, their relationship endured and now here they are as man and wife!!

Evanne and Randy’s wedding was such a breath of fresh air for so many reasons. First, because it had been a while since I’d had perfect wedding day weather and they had a gorgeous 70s and sunny day for their wedding! But more importantly, because the day was easy, breezy and beautiful! Everything ran so smoothly and easily. Evanne and Randy and their wedding party were such a joy to work with and made the day so fun and easy! Just a picture perfect day!
