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!

Brian & Emily's Engagement || Lynchburg, Virginia Engagement & Wedding Photographer

I absolutely love engagement sessions, they give us such a unique way to really get to know each other, all while learning how a couple interacts with each other, posing they will use on their wedding day, and it really helps it sink in with couples that they are getting married!!

What a beautiful evening we had for Brian & Emily’s engagement session! We really had the best time- I think we laughed the entire night! We met out at Sweet Briar College- which is gorgeous anytime of the year- but especially in Fall! I cannot wait for their big day!!

Brian & Crystal: Lynchburg, VA Engagement Session

I think it’s safe to safe, it’s officially Fall, and while I always love summer, the cooler weather and engagement session season is welcome this year! Brain & Crystal are getting married at Atkinson Farm in Danville, Virginia this upcoming April, and I am so excited for it! These two are so sweet, and I cannot wait to celebrate with them! These two have known each other for pretty much their entire lives, and have been dating since their senior year in high school! So, you can say this wedding is a long time coming, which always means extra celebration!

We had a blast at their engagement session on the most perfect Fall evening- the weather was gorgeous, Sweet Briar College is always a favorite!

Sorella Farms Wedding in Lynchburg, Virginia || Gabe & Meghan's Central Virginia Wedding

Gabe & Meghan's Sorella Farms wedding day was so beautiful! It was a GORGEOUS fall day, the colors were starting to turn on the trees and their ceremony location overlooked the gorgeous mountains! Meghan is one of those brides that I wish I could clone. She's so sweet, super laid back, and truly lived in the joyful moments of her wedding day! 

Sorella Farms in Evington- right outside of Lynchburg- is such a gorgeous venue! Their Bridal Suite and getting ready room is the perfect space to hang out with your wedding party and get ready! Gabe & Meg's ceremony was STUNNING overlooking the Blue Ridge Parkway! Right after the ceremony, the sky started turning dark gray and we quickly changed the timeline to get some photos of them together before it started to downpour. We moved SO fast and got through all of their couple portraits- just in time for the sun to come back out for family and wedding party portraits AND sunset photos with Gabe & Meg.  

Their reception in the Sorella Farms barn is gorgeous! Their reception space is so elegant and classy with draped white fabric, twinkle lights, and gold mirrors on the barn doors. It's gorgeous! 

Congratulations Gabe & Meg! We're so excited for you guys as you begin life together!

Let’s talk about the perfect Fall wedding day that Shawn & Kelsey had! Oh my goodness! After what felt like weeeeeeks of rain, their wedding day was sunny and beyond beautiful! There was the beginning of Fall chill in the air, and it really was just the perfect day!
