2019 Weddings in Review

This is one of my most favorite blog posts to put together each year! Because I get to look over every single wedding from the year and truly remember the joyful days of each and every one of my amazing couples! It’s just a reminder of how quickly time passes and how much of a blessing it is to be able to celebrate with these couples on one of the biggest days of their lives!

2019 was an amazing year! I was able to schedule all of my weddings within Lynchburg and the surrounding areas, which was very needed with a little one at home! I loved shooting at venues from The Trivium Estate, The Virginian Hotel, Wintergreen Resort, Sorella Farms, The Glass Hill Venue, and more!

Thank you to each and everyone of my amazing couples that trusts me with something as important as their wedding photography! I do not take this job lightly and am so appreciative of you!

Getting Married?! I would LOVE to talk to you about your wedding day! I am currently booking a limited number of weddings for 2020 and 2021. Let’s chat!!

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! ;)

Blue Ridge Parkway Engagement Session || Scott & Amy's Thunder Ridge Engagement

One of my most favorite things about living in Lynchburg, VA is just how close we are to so many amazing places- and the Blue Ridge Parkway is on the top of that list! Thunder Ridge is an overlook spot that is beyond gorgeous- I mean, those stunning views- and major perk- you don’t have to hike to get there! ;)

When I talked with Scott & Amy and they mentioned wanting mountain views and I knew Thunder Ridge would be perfect for their engagement session! These two are so sweet and I truly loved getting to know them both more before their wedding next year at Wintergreen Resort!

Shawn & Kelsey: Eagle Rock Engagement Session

You guys! I am so excited to share this session with you! I may have driven into a ditch and had my car sideways on 3 wheels when I first met them (what an embarrassing phone call to a couple you've never met! ha!) but wow did we have a blast at their session! Everything about the night was so easy and we laughed so much! And to top it all off- they got into the stream on their property for the most romantic ending to a session ever! 

We did photos out at Shawn's property, which has been owned by members of his family in the past- and it was so great because he showed me some of the most beautiful spots and places around that he loved! Guys, I am not even kidding when I say this spot was beyond beautiful! Mountain Views, Weeping Willow Trees, tall grass, a stream, I was in heaven! And the best part is- they're having their wedding here!! Makes my heart SO happy!!

Lynchburg, VA Engagement Session || James & Tresa

I can't even begin to tell you my excitement when I turned into the entrance of Sweet Briar College and saw how much color was still around! All week, I've been shooting with very limited options- you know- the trees with the half-dead dark orange leaves barely hanging on. Somehow, it's like this little area has been protected from all of the wind and rain we've had lately and all of the gorgeous color was there! 

James & Tresa drove down from Northern Virginia to Charlottesville for their engagement session, and then met me at Sweet Briar, which is only about 30 miles from the Lynchburg area. I love this spot because there are a ton of options and so much variety- between the boat house, open fields, brick buildings, and the barns- there's something for almost everyone! 

We had a great time getting to know each other- their adorable pup, Foster came along and you know I LOVE it when fur babies get included! We chatted all about their upcoming wedding at the Knights Gambit Vineyard in Charlottesville, Virginia- it's going to be BEAUTIFUL and so much fun! 

Thanks James & Tresa for making the trip down to Lynchburg! I LOVED LOVED LOVED getting to know you both and can't wait for your big day!!!
