David & Allie: Southern Fall Wedding in Harrisonburg, Virginia Wedding

Fall wedding season has officially begun and I cannot even begin to think of a wedding that was better suited to kick off the season! David and Allie got married at the Barn at Kline’s Mill right outside of Harrisonburg, Virginia and I am OBSESSED with their wedding day and both of them!

Allie was easily the happiest, most joyful bride ever! She was radiating joy all day and her bridesmaids and family were the sweetest people ever! We loved being there through the getting ready moments with them all, through the ceremony, portrait time, and reception. Let me tell you guys something- these two are LOVED and you could tell on their wedding day! I was smiling the entire time through culling and editing their sneak peek and had the hardest time narrowing their photos down to a blog post! A great problem to have!

These two have been dating since high school and together for over eight years! This day was a long time coming! The foggy weather and misty ceremony didn’t even make them bat an eye- they were just so thrilled to be here in this moment!

THANK YOU to the amazing vendors that made this day so perfect!

Delfosse Vineyard & Winery Wedding || Brandon & Rachel's Charlottesville, VA Wedding

Saturday’s wedding was beyond amazing. Delfosse Vineyard and Winery in Faber, Virginia is STUNNING. I love these Virginia wineries and the view from Delfosse is unparalleled! I can’t wait to go back for a personal trip- I’m dying to try the wine there next time! ;)

Brandon & Rachel’s wedding day was stunning! These two are so sweet & laid-back, it was such a blast! Walking in, the girls were getting their hair and makeup done on the front porch, and just having the best time together! They had the sweetest first look, and their ceremony overlooked the Delfosse Vineyard and Mountains. So gorgeous!

Brandon & Rachel! I am SO excited for you guys and am so honored to have been a part of your wedding day! What a special time! Enjoy your honeymoon! I’m just slightly jealous! ;)

Lynchburg, Virginia Fall Wedding || Levi & Chelsea's Wedding at The Trivium Estate

Guys! My wedding season for 2017 wrapped up last weekend and OH MY GOODNESS! It was a perfect wedding to wrap up my year! Chelsea & Levi got married overlooking the Blue Ridge Mountains at The Trivium Estate, in Forest, Virginia.  It was a chilly day, but so worth it! The views, the last remaining trees with fall colors- heaven!! They provided blankets, hot chocolate & cider for their guests while they exchanged vows! 

Chelsea & Levi seriously made this wedding 100% theirs! I mean- wait until you see her engagement ring to know that she's not your fully traditional bride, which I loved! They really personalized things to make it exactly what they wanted for their big day! Her bridesmaids all wore different color jewel tones for their dresses, they included their dog Skully in their first look photos, and they even had a cookie table at their reception! 

Levi & Chelsea knew photos were a priority for them, and my goodness were they troopers! As the sun started to set, the chill really set in, but neither of them complained once! We pretty much couldn't feel our fingers by the end of their portrait time, but we all warmed up quickly inside the gorgeous reception hall where all of their guests were dancing and having a blast! 

I am so excited to share these gorgeous photos! Her details, this dress, and their love for each other made this day such a dream for me! Thank you Levi & Chelsea for choosing me and hand designing the perfect wedding day to wrap up my season!! I hope you are having a blast on your winery honeymoon in the mountains!!

Trivium Estate Wedding || AJ & Kimberly classic, fall wedding day

Everything about AJ & Kim's wedding day was so beautiful and classy! From her gorgeous venue at The Trivium Estate, that ahhh-mazing gown, the gorgeous florals, and her super sweet groom, that had a smile on his face all day. 

I know you've heard this before, but AJ & Kim just radiate their love for each other! It's so inspiring to be around a couple that is so happy and joyful- and you could just tell from all of their friends and family there for the day! These two needed no direction from me, they just automatically cuddled up together, laughed, kissed, and got lost in the moment. I was in portrait heaven with these two- I wish we had another hour for portraits! ;) 

Their first look was stunning & so sweet! AJ surprised Kim with the most thoughtful gifts and notes, and he was almost speechless when he saw her put together in her dress! Ahh So sweet! I've been so excited to share these photos with you guys! 

Dani & Cj || Engagement session at Historic Meems Bottom Covered Bridge

I first met Dani when I traveled to Fort Walton, Florida this past January and instantly loved her! She's so sweet & bubbly, so I was beyond thrilled when she reached out to me to shoot her wedding! Dani & Cj are getting married next spring in the Harrisonburg area, so when they were in Virginia for his sister's wedding, we knew it was the perfect time to take advantage of the time for an engagement session! 

Cj grew up in the Harrisonburg/ New Market area, and suggested doing their engagement session at the Historic Meems Bottom Covered Bridge and the battlefield that has tons of history for him with college. It was a gorgeous location, I could have stayed for hours and hours taking photos of these two!
