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 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 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 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 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 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.
Read MoreLesley and Michael // Staunton, VA Wedding
This was one of those weddings where, even though my feet were killing me from walking around with heavy camera equipment all day, I had to stay and dance at the reception because it was just so fun. Lesley and Michael’s June wedding in Staunton, Virginia was a day full of happy tears, passionate kisses, and lively dancing.
