2019 WEDDING FAVORITES

We worked with some pretty amazing couples in 2019! Here are a few of our favorite moments…

DAVID & LAUREN

A little sneak peek from David and Lauren’s wedding day at Burlington Plantation! This is such a beautiful property and we had the most amazingly perfect weather… and really, this crew was just so. much. fun. Narrowing down which photos to post here took some serious effort.

 

A giant cheers to the new Mr. and Mrs. Townsend! We absolutely loved spending the day with you guys!

MARK & AMY

Perfect cloud cover for an outdoor summer Richmond VA wedding, the sweetest golden retriever, a stunning invitation suite created/painted by the the bride’s mother, a personalized ceremony by the groom’s father, dozens of gorgeous floral arrangements, a fireworks show, ice cream truck, and the happiest laid back couple… this Willow Oaks Country Club wedding was full of all my favorite things to photograph 🙂 Congrats Amy and Mark!!!

2018 WEDDING FAVORITES

We captured lots of unforgettable moments in 2018… big ones, little ones, romantic ones, serious ones, funny ones, and lots of in between moments when no one realized we were watching. It’s basically impossible to narrow it down to a small set of favorites, but below are a few of mine! And if I had to do it over again tomorrow, I might choose completely different images. But today I was focused on the moments… with a few pretty scenes and timeless portraits mixed in there. Which is pretty appropriate since that’s exactly how I’d describe my style of photography 🙂

 

Thank you to all of these awesome couples and their friends/families for trusting us with capturing these memories for them!

JESSE & BRIANNA

Virginia is for lovers… lovers of basketball, epic dance parties, and this awesome couple. Jesse and Brianna met while working for the VCU athletic department, and although their jobs have taken them all over the country, they returned to Richmond, where it all began, to get married. I could probably create an entire blog post of just their dance floor, but the rest of the day was too beautiful not to share!

TOM & HEIDI

From Heidi’s gorgeous custom made marigold dress, to the appearance of the one and only Gelati Celesti ice cream truck (Tom’s family’s business), to the South African floral inspiration (a nod to Heidi’s childhood upbringing), to the amazing paper flower wall at their reception (created by Tom’s mother)… Tom and Heidi’s wedding day was anything but ordinary, and was visually STUNNING! Proof below in case you’re not convinced…

BEN & ALLISON

It’s not every day that you find the person you want to spend your life with in high school, but these two are so obviously perfect for each other. Allison and Ben’s wedding day included two of the best pups, Charlottesville mountain views, classic stylish details, one of my favorite families, and lots of longtime friends who have become their family.

CHRIS & KELLY

I knew Chris and Kelly’s wedding would be fun from the first day we met. Everything they described was right up my alley- a laid back day at the Historic Mankin Mansion, a personalized outdoor ceremony, Moscow mules flowing like wine, and a packed dance floor. What I didn’t know, was that there would be the coolest celebrity EVER in attendance. And neither did Chris and Kelly- it was a pretty awesome surprise. You’ll have to scroll down to find out who, but if you’ve spent any time in Blacksburg, Virginia (GO HOKIES!), you won’t be disappointed. Chris and Kelly, thank you for trusting me and Travis to capture your day- it was a blast!

EVAN & JENNY

Happy one year anniversary to these two today! Evan and Jenny’s Trinity United Methodist Church and Boathouse at Rocketts Landing wedding was definitely one of my favorites from last year and you will know why as soon as you see the photos. There was so much heartfelt emotion that day- it was so wonderful to witness and fun for us to capture. I think we all deserve to be as happy as Evan and Jenny were on their wedding day.

Cheers to year 1- and Happy Birthday Jenny! Have fun reliving the day!
