I'm a published wedding and portrait photographer located in a small town outside of Charlottesville. In addition to capturing beautiful images, I love spending time with my family, am freakishly good at word games (Hey Wheelmobile!), love an ice cold can of Coke or Dr. Pepper, know every line to Hocus Pocus and can never pass up a Chick-fil-A waffle fry or a trip to HomeGoods.
We had to wait an extra year for it thanks to COVID-19, but Rachel and John had a beautiful Independence Golf Club wedding. You may remember these two from their Richmond elopement in 2020. Rachel and John had planned their wedding for that summer, but like so many couples affected by the pandemic, they had […]
I first met Ruth and Zach last fall at Maymont. We spent a warm afternoon exploring the grounds and capturing their engagement photos. They were so much fun together, plus Ruth and I share a love for Coca-Cola (definitely my biggest vice I know, but I’m not a coffee girl. Instead, I prefer an ice […]
Allison and Wes’ spring wedding at Walkerton Tavern may have been drizzly, but it was beautiful. The tavern itself is a great space. Built in 1825, it’s currently part of the Cultural Arts Center of Glen Allen and features the large home as well as a number of outbuildings and a gazebo that is perfect […]
Selena and Opey had a beautiful Alturia Farm wedding in November. The weather was perfect even if a little warm for the month and Selena picked a perfect blend of reds, burgundies and blushes to compliment the day. It was truly a day of love and laughter with their friends and family members. Selena is […]
The current COVID-19 pandemic may have halted some large scale celebrations, but it hasn’t cancelled love as evidenced by Rachel and John’s backyard Richmond elopement. July 25 was chosen for their wedding date because it was the closest Saturday to their dating anniversary, so when regulations began changing regarding events, they chose to have a […]
Temperatures are heating up and it’s the perfect time to start dreaming about summer weddings. Virginia is full of beautiful venues bursting with color this time of year including Jasmine Plantation which made for the perfect backdrop for this blush summer wedding inspiration shoot. Hosted by Crystal Belcher and Angie McPherson, the shoot featured a […]
Morgan once told me she’s not a cold weather girl, but you could never tell it judging by her wedding day. She was all smiles all day as she married Kevin March 9 at Alturia Farm, a gorgeous horse farm complete with white barns in King William about 20 miles outside of Richmond. It was […]
I love a good styled, or inspiration, shoot and this winter wedding inspiration shoot is no different. This shoot was held at the beautiful Cousiac Manor in the Northern Neck. The venue is a combination of historic and rustic located adjacent to the Pamunkey River. The venue allows for a variety of looks because it has the historic […]
I’m not a cold weather girl, but I love a winter wedding. I know that’s a contradiction, but there’s something about a bride in sleeves and (faux!) fur that I love as well as the rich jewel tones that are often found in winter weddings. Winter weddings tend to be all about burgundy, deep blues […]
My first communication with Sarah was via email back in April. She was planning a wedding in Surry the first Saturday in May and was seeking a photographer for herself and her fiancee, Will. She said they’d been together nearly a decade and that her favorite photo was of the groom seeing his bride coming […]
