Brian & Emily's Melrose Caverns Wedding

Melrose Caverns in Harrisonburg, Virginia

Brian & Emily’s Wedding was such a stunning day! I LOVE shooting at Melrose Caverns- there’s a gorgeous farmhouse to get ready in, beautiful open fields, the stone work, everything is gorgeous!

Emily started by getting ready with her best friend, Mom and Mother-in-Law to be. The sweetest moments between her Mom had us all in tears! Because the fear of rain coming all day, we worked SO fast, and then lucked out because it never started raining… so we got lots and lots of portraits! Their ceremony was so sweet and overlooked the beautiful stone historical building! Right into their reception, which was so much fun! Their guests had the best time celebrating together!

I just love these two so much- they are so sweet and so much fun! Congrats you two! Hope you’re having the best time on your honeymoon!!

Thank you so so much to all the amazing vendors that made this day so special!

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!

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!!

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!

Dayton & Cara: A classic, backyard Cullen, Virginia Wedding

GUYS! I am so excited to share Dayton & Cara’s backyard wedding in Cullen, Virginia! Their day was SO perfect! I’m not even exaggerating when I say that! Usually there are some bumps along the way on the wedding day that we help guide and navigate through, but not yesterday! It was AMAZING!

I knew it was going to be an amazing day when we walked into the cutest getting ready Farm House, that was built by Dayton’s Great Grandparents, AND was recently perfectly renovated by his amazing parents— and was greeted with hugs, excitement, and all of the bridesmaids singing to each and every song that played! Cara had a pretty big wedding party- but oh my goodness- they all seemed like the best of friends and just so much fun!

Their ceremony overlooked the gorgeous pond between his parents and grandparents house. It was STUNNING. Every little detail was thought of! Their reception was set up in a tent in the hay field and guys- this group loved to dance! It was seriously such a FUN wedding day!

Congratulations Dayton & Cara! We had THE BEST TIME ever and I am not even joking when I’m forcing myself into your friends and having your Momma adopt me! <3

A BIG BIG BIG thanks to the amazing vendors that made this day so great!
