lynchburg, virginia wedding photographer: Brett & Hailey's Trivium Wedding

With all this traveling lately, staying in the Lynchburg & Forest area lately was such a treat! It's no surprise that I love shooting weddings at The Trivium Estates.  Heidi & her staff are SO organized and the hardest workers you will ever meet!

Hailey & Brett's wedding day was SO beautiful! The perfect Fall temps- they chose to get married at the Pergola outside and it seriously was stunning! I loved her beautiful blooms- the oranges and reds were perfect for this time of year!  

Hailey & Brett chose to do a 'no peek' right before the ceremony! I love these moments- the anticipation and excitement is at it's HIGHEST!! 

The Trivium Estate's ballroom always looks amazing!

You know I love a good candy bar!! ;) 

Hailey & Brett did a bubble exit- it turned out so well and was so much FUN! Baileys laughs and joy shows that!! ;) 

Thank you SO much Brett & Hailey for allowing me to be a part of your big & special day! It was such an honor to be there to celebrate with you!!

Lynchburg, Virginia Wedding Photographer: Hailey's Bridal Portraits

I looooooooove doing Bridal Portrait Sessions! It is SO much fun getting the Bride all dressed up- without the pressure of the wedding day timeline and the hustle and bustle of friends & family & wedding guests! Plus- who doesn't want another day to wear their beautiful wedding gown! You pay so much money for THE perfect dress, wear it again! Plus, most of my brides end up changing something- it could be as simple as earrings, or lip color- or even as big as changing their hair style! 

Hailey and I got together a few weeks ago for her Bridal Portraits out at the beautiful Trivium Estates in Forest, Virginia! I've been so excited to share these images with you guys! Bailey is so beautiful and makes such a stunning Bride!! And this session is a PERFECT example of how we can still make it work- even in the rain! As soon as we walked outside it started POURING- so we got some photos inside, and on the porch at the Trivium.  The rain cleared just in time for sunset- and we got these AMAZING glowy photos as well!

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! I hope you can feel my excitement through your screen because OH MY GOODNESS! This wedding was truly amazing!! Robyn & Jonathan choose a STUNNING venue- the Avon Old Farms Hotel in Avon, Connecticut! That's right- I flew to Connecticut to shoot this wedding and I am SO glad I did! Everything about their day was beautiful and joyful!! 

Robyn had such beautiful details! Her florals were SO gorgeous- and she had hers wrapped with some of her Mom's veil from her wedding! Love special details like this!! Jonathan works at a jewelry store, and oh my goodness is her ring spectacular!

Their ceremony was SO beautiful! The Avon Old Farms Hotel has quite a few amazing spots for a ceremony- but this vine-covered pergola was PERFECTION! Her pick of watermelon bridesmaids dresses made them seriously pop off the greenery! And how adorable are their daughters as the flower girls!?! 

NOW, for my FAVORITE part of the day- the Bride & Groom portraits!! We took all of their photos in the back portion of the Avon Old Farms Hotel- seriously how beautiful is it here?! 

ROBYN! You are seriously STUNNNNNNNING!!!!

Central Virginia Wedding || An Avoca Museum Wedding

Guys. I swore I wasn't ready for Fall. I wanted to cling onto summer for as long as possible. Soak up every last sun ray and time in the pool. And then this weekend happened.  A weekend that hit us with cooler temps and a slight breeze and it was magical.  It was the exact taste of autumn that I needed.  To shoot a wedding and it not be sweltering, everyone wasn't sweating and dying- it was perfect.  

Jerry & Holly had a beautiful, intimate ceremony at The Avoca Museum in Central Virginia.  It's a beautiful museum, full of gorgeous, green gardens, intimate little spots, and history.  It was the perfect spot for their families to join- Holly's from this area, and Jerry's all the way from Texas.  They had the county touches added in with the gorgeous museum to make it a truly unique to them wedding! 

Holly did the sweetest first look with her Mom and her Dad! Totally made me tear up!! 

A special thanks to the vendors that helped make this day unique and special!

Lynchburg, Virginia Engagement Photos: Alex & Elana

When couples get together and can laugh with (and at- haha) each other- I just LOOOOOOOVE it! Alex & Elana are the cutest together- and they totally look at each other with complete love and joy! After a few kisses, Elana noticed that Alex had some of her lipstick on and was laughing so hard! It was adorable!! 

These two braved out a warm, warm warm, August evening at the Riverside Park in Lynchburg, Virginia and they didn't complain once and I totally loved my time with them! We walked all around this beautiful park and got some amazing shots!! 

You guys- I cannot wait to be a part of your November wedding day! It's going to be so much fun!!
