Mike and Leah’s wedding day was perhaps the most tender celebration I’ve ever photographed. There were so many thoughtful details from start to finish, and I think it all represented how caring of a couple they truly are and how much they center their lives around…
Read MoreFallon & Liam // Maine Island Wedding
Liam and Fallon were married on the perfect Maine day in August - meaning, there was every bit of weather you could sample for the season, and it was all exactly right. Weddings are naturally magical days, and I think that magic is further even amplified when the couple is able to tie the knot in place that holds special meaning for them or their family. Well, Fallon and Liam had it all at Peaks Island…
Read MoreKyra & Gordon // Portland, Maine Wedding
After a week full of rain, it was finally a perfect June day in Maine - sunny skies with a cool ocean breeze. Gordon and Kyra couldn’t have picked a better day for their wedding in Portland, Maine. I actually met Kyra and Gordon when we were all living in Roanoke, VA, and then we each made our way up to New England. They share passions for weightlifting, outdoorsy adventures, and cats, just to name a few. They know how to work hard for their dreams, but also how to relax and enjoy life. I was so honored to capture their wedding, especially since…
Read MorePhoebe & Sam // Vermont Wedding
Phoebe and Sam each got ready at Naulakha, a Landmark Trust Property where Rudyard Kipling (yes, the author of The Jungle Book!) use to live. They commandeered separate floors in the house on a cloudy Vermont day in early summer. The rhododendrons around the property were bursting with soft pink blooms and the old wooden floors of the house creaked…
Read MoreLydia & Roger // Maine Wedding
Lydia and Roger were married on a hot (and I mean HOT! ) July day in New Gloucester, Maine. It was a day full of energy, tradition, and most of all - love. Together these two lively individuals blended their families and it led to some very touching moments and an absolutely raucous dance floor…
Read MoreJosh and Heather // Fincastle, VA Wedding
After numerous Covid-19 postponements, Josh and Heather finally got to celebrate their big day at the historic Kyle House in Fincastle, VA. There was an air of “finally!” after all of the logistical hoops they had to jump through to make the wedding a reality at last. I had photographed their engagement photoshoot back in 2019, so it was extra special to see them again after all of that time to celebrate…
Read MoreCarol & Erron // Salem Wedding
Carol and Erron are one of countless couples who had to change their original wedding plans due to the coronavirus pandemic. They went through the awful process of postponement. When they day FINALLY came, they stayed true to their vision with keeping the celebration in Carol’s hometown of Salem, Virginia - everything was just on a much, much smaller scale. They were married at the Salem Presbyterian Church and then celebrated afterwards at the Salem Museum. Even with…
Read MoreMichaela & Colby // Vintage Wedding
Amidst the chaos and unknown of the COVID-19, Michaela and Colby were still determined to finally get married. Like many couples, the pandemic foiled their original plans of having their wedding at a venue with over one hundred guests. Instead, they decided to stick with their wedding date and move their nuptials to their favorite local…
Read MoreKristin & Holli // Mountaintop Wedding, VA
There’s nothing more quintessential southwestern Virginia than mountain views, and Kristin and Holli’s wedding was full of them. Their venue, Silver Hearth Lodge, sits atop Bent Mountain and looks out across the Roanoke valley. Tucked away in the woods at the top of a mountain, these two tied the knot on a cool autumn day.
Read MoreMorela & Derek // Boones Mill, VA Wedding
Stories like Morela and Derek’s just strengthen my belief in fate – the idea that just some things are meant to happen. They met one night in Miami while they were each out with their friends, and here they were getting married. It’s proof that you just never know what each day has in store. Little did these two know that on that night they’d meet their future spouse. The more time I spent around them during the wedding day, the more obvious it was that…
Read MoreKelsey and Cody // Vineyard Wedding
Cody and Kelsey are so wonderfully kind and sweet. They are the kind of couple that asks a photographer to take a spontaneous photo of them with a loved one during their reception and then says “Thank you so much!” with true appreciation. Many couples don’t show such gratitude because they are (understandably) so busy enjoying their day and just figure that the photographer is simply doing their job. But, Kelsey and Cody are not most people…
Read MoreStephanie and Will // Blue Ridge, VA Wedding
I pulled onto the dirt road and wound around a neighboring orchard before I came into view of Diamond V Farm with its rolling pastures and mountain views. The barn sat atop a little hill, the last stop on the road. It was the perfect setting for Stephanie and Will’s July wedding…
Read MoreSarah and Jonathan // Staunton, VA Wedding
Sarah and Jonathan’s fall barn wedding was full of color and laughter and happy tears. As the sun shone down on them and the cool breeze blew in off the farm fields, these two joyous people committed themselves to each other in…
Read MoreMatt and Lauren // Charlottesville, VA Wedding
Matt and Lauren’s wedding was a delightfully sophisticated affair held at the Farmington Country Club in Charlottesville, Virginia. The club has gorgeous grounds and elegant interiors, with a fireplace lit and ready to warm you around nearly every corner. The traditional decor and Lauren’s simple yet opulent bridal look gave the day a truly classic feel. But don’t be fooled - it was still one hell of a party!…
Read MoreSylvia and Avi // Taneytown, MD Wedding
I knew that Sylvia and Avi’s wedding would be especially meaningful for me to shoot. We have a special history between us, and I couldn’t wait to see them and their families on their big day. ..
Read MoreCarissa and Anna // Buffalo Mountain Elopement
Carissa and Anna’s mountaintop elopement was absolutely dreamy. Their small group of guests gave the ceremony an incredibly intimate feel, and the adventurous location seemed to…
Read MoreAndrea and Will // Roanoke, VA Wedding
There was much anticipation leading up to Andrea and Will’s September wedding. I liked their easygoing natures from the moment I met them, and I so enjoyed their engagement session on Roanoke mountain. But, as things in Roanoke go, we kept bumping into each other around town…
Read MoreJenny and Chris // New Castle, VA Wedding
Jenny and Chris were married at Wilderness Adventure at Eagle Landing, a beautiful outdoor recreation center that hosts camps, retreats, and special events. After a morning of floating down the river, Jenny and Chris went to their respective cabins to prepare for their ceremony. A well-timed rainstorm passed through before it was time for them to meet at the end of the aisle….
Read MoreDanae and Don // Vinton, VA Wedding
The one word I would use to describe Danae and Don’s wedding is sweet. Everything about their love is so sweet and tender, from the way they hold hands to how they look into each other’s eyes. What started as a friendship of multiple years blossomed into something much, much more.
