Tyler & Sarah: A Fall Mead Lake Lodge Wedding

Mead Lake Lodge in Rustburg, Virginia

I love being able to find little glimmers of fall color around for these early fall weddings, and oh man were we able to find fall at Tyler & Sarah’s Wedding! Mead Lake Lodge is a gorgeous, intimate feeling venue in the heart of Central Virginia! It was a perfect location for their sweet wedding day!

Tyler & Sarah had such a sweet first look, and then we explored around the venue with their wedding party, family, and friends for their portraits! They had a beautiful ceremony and such a fun reception!

Congratulations Tyler & Sarah! I hope you guys loved every minute of your special day and are loooooving married life! <3

Thank you to the amazing vendors that worked so hard! It was amazing to work with each of you!

Geoff & Genna's Bold Rock Cidery Wedding

I just want to clone Geoff & Genna! These two are so sweet and so much fun! Their engagement session was a blast and my sides hurt from laughing for a week! Their Bold Rock Cidery wedding was no exception and being there with their closest friends and family made it even more special!

They started the day at the gorgeous Blue Ridge Farm, an Air B&B in Afton, Virginia with their friends and family. It was so much fun to have all their loved ones in the house getting ready together, and such a gorgeous setting!

Geoff & Genna had to make the hard decision to cut their guest list down because of COVID, and included just their closest friends and family members. Their ceremony was small, intimate, and beautiful overlooking the Bold Rock Cidery stream and there was not a dry eye in sight. They had so many special moments, from a good friend officiating, walking her Dad’s dog down the aisle with her, her brother performing a song he wrote just for them, it was amazing! But, the tears didn’t last long! The confetti guns went off and everyone celebrated with these two!

We laughed as we took portraits of them around Bold Rock’s property, and then celebrated with them as they had their reception in the cidery, shared their first dances, had a delicious meal, and danced away on the back deck!

Congratulations again Geoff & Genna! Your day was beautiful & I loved being a part of it!!

Lynchburg, VA Engagement Session || Thomas & Logan's Lynchburg Engagement

These fall days in Lynchburg can be all over the place- one day it’s 60 and beautiful and the next it’s back up in the 80’s and SO humid. For Thomas & Logan’s engagement session, it was definitely the latter of the two, but we survived the heat and had a great time getting to know each other at their engagement session!

Thomas & Logan are getting married this December at West Manor Estate in the Lynchburg, VA area and I am super excited for their wedding day! And in December, I’m sure we will be wishing we were back in the summertime heat! ;)

The Virginian Hotel Wedding || Emily's Bridal Portraits

,

Oh I have been so excited to share Emily’s bridal portraits with you guys! We took these back when hurricane Florence was hitting the east coast, and everyone’s wedding and portrait plans got thrown for a loop! So we last minute changed up some plans and took her bridal portraits at The Virginian Hotel in downtown Lynchburg.

It was THE perfect place for her portraits- Emily made such a classy bride- the marble staircase at The Virginian was just the perfect backdrop! AND the rain held off so we were able to head outside for a few, and explore some of the other rooms in Virginian (how cool is their library?!)

Thanks again Emily for trusting me with these portraits for you! You are such a stunning bride!
