Georgina + Dave | Bluemont Vineyard Wedding

Warning, this wedding contains tons of personality!

Georgina and Dave, they dance [competitive ballroom], they laugh [hysterically] and they love [each other] - and their friends do to! They are also incredibly silly and sweet which sounds a lot like us! From their engagement session to the wedding it was very obvious to us that family was very important. It was also important that they wanted their personalities captured without any forced posing which we highly encourage. It was a HOT Memorial Day weekend and but we somehow managed to ignore that fact and simple focus on the high, happy energy from the wedding day.

This was our first time back to Bluemont Vineyard since 2008 and it was such a pleasure to document a wedding and work with the staff there. They take really great care of you there, both as a client and a vendor!

Claire + Joel | Charlottesville wedding

We love easy going, simple and sweet weddings and Claire and Joel delivered on that note. We've known Joel for some time now and he's good friends with Ale and Aly whose wedding we photographed last year. Claire and Joels ceremony was held at the beautiful Wesley Memorial on UVA's campus and had their cocktail and reception on stunning family farm not too far away. We just loved all the sweet moments between Claire & Joel's siblings and parents and had a blast hanging out with their fun and crazy wedding party.

Congrats again to Claire and Joel and our best wishes go out to you and yours.

Susan & Tim | Strong Mansion Wedding

Susan and Tim are two of the sweetest and easy going people we could know. When Susan approached us about her wedding, she expressed how important it was for us to capture moments between them and their loved ones. Without going into  too much detail, Tim's son recently and tragically passed away. They made it a point to include his remaining son and Susan's daughter as their best man/maid of honor. In Susan's words "Life is fragile, and we must seize the moments and appreciate the people that matter most."

Please enjoy a few of our favorites from their special day.
