Would you just look at these two!! Bridgette and Doug were pure magic at Goodstone Inn. These two braved the drive in the rain from Maryland to make this session happen. Bridgette had her hair trial earlier in the day so we figured what a better way to make the most out of a good hair day than to schedule photos afterwards!

Goodstone Inn Engagement Session | Virginia Wedding Photographer | Bridgette and Doug

Sky and Dallen are two awesome humans that like to have a great time. Sky is actually a wedding photographer herself so I just knew that this day would be super photogenic and perfect for image making! These two met at William and Mary and decided to tie the knot just feet from where they first met. In keeping with campus tradition, they did their first look at the Crim Dell bridge: a spot where lovers can walk across to give them good tidings and a strong bond for life. The rest of the day was just as magical.

William and Mary Wedding | Wren Chapel Wedding | Sky and Dallen

Although I’ve known these two for under a year, I feel as though we were meant to be best friends! Perhaps that’s how all athletes feel; we tend to value the same things and approach life in very similar ways. Kelsey and Brett are big fitness fans and live healthy lives filled with good friends, family and good (home-cooked) food. Kelsey and Brett met online and went for their first date to bike around the National mall. It only seems natural that these two would plan a stunning laid back wedding with tons of friends, games and wine.

Stone Tower Winery Wedding | Virginia Wedding Photographer | Kelsey and Brett

Ah yes, the age-old question: Do I need a wedding planner? The answer is an overwhelming YES. What most brides don’t realize is that, no matter what, you will have a wedding planner. If you don’t hire a professional, this job will either fall to you, your photographer, your mother, or a team of drunken bridesmaids. This is not to say that any of these people can do this job or are in the least bit qualified for it… but one way or another, your wedding will go on. Whether you want it to run smoothly without stress is up to you.
