Andrew & Jessica's Backyard Elopement in Covington, VA

I am SO excited to be sharing Andrew & Jessica’s wedding with you guys! This sweet couple has had so many ups and downs with planning everything! With COVID, they had to move their big wedding day celebration until June 2021, but they didn’t let that stop them from having a fun celebration with their families and closest friends.

I was so surprised to see how much planning they had put into this day! From selecting a totally different color and style of bridesmaids dresses, florals, cake- they truly thought of everything! They got ready in their beautiful home in Covington, Virginia, and then had a gorgeous ceremony overlooking a neighbors pond, and had a reception with burgers and hot dogs in their back yard!

Congratulations you guys! It was such a stunning day and I cannot wait to see you get married again next year! (and honestly- how many people can say that?! haha!)

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!!

Jesse & Lilya's Virginian Hotel Wedding || Lynchburg, VA Wedding

My last wedding for 2019 and oh my goodness was it an AMAZING day! Jesse & Lilya had a small, intimate wedding at The Virginian Hotel in Lynchburg, Virginia. I LOVE this venue so much- it’s so helpful to have your getting ready space, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception spaces all in one area!

Jesse & Lilya were so sweet & so super laid back! I loved their family and friends that all came in to celebrate this sweet couple! Jesse & Lilya had a small, intimate wedding day, and didn’t need a full day of coverage, but instead an elopement style package! The perfect amount of time to get some getting ready moments with her bridesmaids through dinner and cake cutting!

Thank you to the amazing vendors that made their day so wonderful!

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

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! ;)
