Brian & Crystal: Atkinson Farms Wedding

Atkinson Farms Wedding in Danville, Virginia

OH MAN! I was just SO excited for Brian & Crystal’s Wedding! These two are TROOPERS- let me tell you! They originally planned their wedding day for April 2020, and rescheduled to July 11th. They said- we’ve waited this long- what’s a few more months! So sweet!

Their wedding day was so beautiful! We started the morning at Crystal’s childhood home in Danville, Virginia, where her sister and Mom helped get her get ready and into her beautiful gown! Brian & Crystal had the sweetest first look moments, a gorgeous ceremony, ahhhh-mazing sunset portraits, and such a fun reception!

It was such an honor to be there with you guys, Brian & Crystal! I hope you loved every single second of your special day!

THANK YOU to the amazing vendors from Brian & Crystal’s Wedding Day! What a gorgeous day!

Staunton, Virginia Church Wedding || Central Virginia Wedding Photographer

It's difficult to even know where to start for this sweet wedding! Ryan & Rachel were seriously super sweet, and their gorgeous Fall wedding day was so perfect! The leaves were just starting to change colors, I was so excited to find a few spots perfect for photos with those golden yellows and oranges! All of their friends and family were so sweet, loving, and excited for these two! I love being at a wedding and feeling like a part of the family by the time I go home! 

Ryan and Rachel chose to do a "no peek" instead of a first look, and it was so sweet. They held hands around the corner and prayed together before walking down the aisle.  For our bride and groom portraits, these two walked through a field, through some trees, and even across the street to the rows of corn! I love when couples trust me and are up for anything and everything! And their photos turned out so well because of it!

Blue Ridge Mountain Wedding || Lynchburg, Virginia Wedding Photographer

When I dream of a gorgeous backyard wedding, THIS is exactly what I dream of! A backyard on a mountaintop, overlooking the entire city of Lynchburg, surrounded by gorgeous greenery, friends and family! Such a beautiful day from start to finish! Barrett & Isabelle's wedding was gorgeous! They got married at their childhood home nestled in Lynchburg, Virginia with THE most amazing views of the city that you've ever seen! 

One of the things that Isabelle loves most about Barrett is that he can always make her laugh- and goodness could you tell on their wedding day.  They were both so happy and carefree, it was such a blast! 

Thanks so all the amazing vendors that helped so much with this gorgeous wedding!

Backyard Wedding in Farmville, Virginia || Central Virginia Wedding Photographer

I've been looking forward to this wedding for what seems like the longest time.  Whitney is one of those people that you meet and instantly fall in love with, and feel like you've been friends with her forever.  

Wilson and Whitney are the sweetest couple, and I so enjoyed all the time I've gotten with them! I asked them what they loved most about each other and just about melted! Whitney talks about Wilson's authenticity and how he serves her and loves her so well.  And Wilson loves the way that Whitney loves with all of her heart- letting her joy, compassion, and encouragement shine on everyone.  I mean, don't you just love them so much?! 

Wilson and Whitney had a gorgeous backyard wedding in Farmville, Virginia at her parents farm.  It was the sweetest, homegrown wedding, with so many amazing details that their friends and family helped out with! Their personal vows to each other were so sweet, special and unique, I don't think there was a dry eye in the entire place! How her Dad held it together to preform the ceremony is just beyond me!!  

We headed out for some sunset photos right after dinner, and I am SO GLAD we did!! What a glorious sunset we got and oh my goodness some of my favorite images!! 

A HUGE thanks to the vendors, friends and family that helped make this wedding so spectacular!!

Charlottesville, VA Wedding Photographer || Dannie & Evan's Keswick Vineyard Wedding

I don't think I've ever cried throughout the entire toasts portion of a wedding, but after Evan & Dannie's wedding, I can cross that off my bucket list. These two had so many friends and family around supporting them, and hearing about their unique love story from their best friends was so special.  They had a giant bridal party- you could just tell these two had SO many people there that love and support them! 

Evan & Dannie's wedding day was absolute perfection.  The perfect weather, the most gorgeous venue, and the cutest couple ever! Keswick Vineyards is seriously so stunning. There was a photo-op at every single corner! Their ceremony was stunning, with the fountain and the vineyard as the backdrop! We all headed out right at sunset and had THE most perfect lighting for romantic portraits! We walked throughout the stunning vineyard, and the property before joining their guests for one of the most fun reception parties ever! 

So thankful for all of the fantastic vendors that Dannie choose for her wedding day! This day was absolutely GORGEOUS thanks to all of your hard work!
