Gino + Jen

  • A Fall Wedding at the Historic Mill at Fine Creek

I met Jen and Gino at 6:45am for their engagement session. Anyone who is fun to be around at 6:45am is just incredible! I loved them from that moment! They both have such a genuine, easy-going way about them that makes them so easy to love and get to know. It makes sense that they would also have amazing friends. One of my favorite moments during their day was in the morning when the girls were getting ready. We did something different at the Mill this time; because there is only one window in the bridal suite, we decided to take some getting ready shots outside!

72 Hours in Iceland

  • Weddings, Waterfalls, Worth It.

I’m sure some people are going to think this is craziness. It kind of is. Michael and I photographed a wedding in Roanoke, VA (no where near a big airport) and then flew out to Iceland the very next day. We got into Iceland at midnight and then started photographing Hayden and Geli’s wedding day the very next morning with Buddy and Jill! It was a rush but it was fun! Jill and I had sore feet but when you’re photographing a gorgeous bride with your best friends in the middle of ICELAND, you don’t worry about your feet!!!
