Jason + Shannon

A Red, White & Blue Wedding | Hotel John Marshall

October 2, 2012

After meeting

Jason and Shannon, I should NEVER complain about my workload. These two are SO busy with their jobs that they were traveling until 3 days before their wedding!! What?! How Shannon got everything together and still remained so calm on her wedding day was beyond me! Super woman!!! I’m just in awe of her! Jason and Shannon are an incredible pair and their downtown Richmond wedding couldn’t have been better…. or more patriotic! Red, white and blue filled their day from beginning to end. We shot their portraits in a little area of Churchill and then we made our way to the church…. in the “To the Bottom and Back Bus”. Not even kidding. Cool right?!! Jason and Shannon planned their

Sara’s cousin

was getting married and so naturally, Sara was a part of the big day. Little did she know that this wedding celebration would be the weekend that she met her future husband! Yep! Sara met Dave at her cousin’s wedding but here’s the best part….Dave’s brother is Sara’s cousin’s husband! Crazy right?! They told me this story during their engagement session but in the midst of wedding day craziness, I didn’t put two and two together and until I noticed that Sara’s cousin and Dave’s brother were staying in both sides of the family formals! I was so confused until that story came back to me! Isn’t that fun?! I love hearing stories like that. It’s just so awesome how God designs relationships

Trey + Kiersten

A Retro Rustic Wedding | Scottsville VA Wedding

September 20, 2012

The skies were

cloudy but I’ve learned not to let wedding day weather fool me. Just because the skies aren’t blue and the sun isn’t shining doesn’t mean that it can’t be a BEAUTIFUL day. In fact, some of my BEST wedding days have been overcast and so I gladly welcome the clouds! Michael and I drove through the rolling hills of Scottsville (a small area outside of Charlottesville) until we arrived at camp. Trey and Kiersten decided to have their wedding on Trey’s parent’s property that they have converted into an incredible camp that Michael and I have been going to since high school! You can read more about that here! This incredible family has been a part of our lives for a while and so to be the one that was able to

Dustin + Brittani

A DIY Charleston Wedding | Pepper Plantation Wedding

September 18, 2012

He brings

a sense of “calm” to her when they are in each other’s presence. I noticed it during their engagement session and it was ever so present on their wedding day. Dustin is Brittani’s best friend and soul mate! As the girls got ready, Britt sat in the stylist’s chair and with her hair up in pins and her makeup half done, she says “I just want to see him”. That was her main concern. Not the dress, not her hair, not the million little details that she was sprinting around doing that morning… just him. It’s easy to understand why she loves him so much. Dustin is the sweetest country boy you could ever meet. He’s polite, gentle, patient and I’m pretty sure he could get away with anything with that smile of his!! As he turned around to see his bride

Tyler + Liz

A Country Farm Wedding | Rolling Run Farm

September 11, 2012

The skies

were deceiving. They were perfectly blue and with puffy white clouds every now and then. It would have been very easy to assume that the WHOLE wedding day would look like this. A perfect 85 degrees with a slight breeze isn’t anything to complain about! However, Michael and I had seen the forecast and we were on guard. I’m BEYOND thankful that Tyler and Liz decided to see each other beforehand because we were able to accomplish ALL of their portraits before the blue skies turned dark. The ceremony began and the winds picked up but they made it through the vows, sealed their new marriage with a kiss and Liz shouted “Take cover!” as her groom led her down the aisle!! It’s a ceremony I’ll never forget
