Whitney & BradenRichmond Virginia Fine Art Photographer

Whitney and Braden are the sweetest! I had such a blast with them. We laughed the entire time and took lots and lots of pictures of sheep. Ha! I’m sure y’all know by now how much I love animals. The weather was perfect and we were blessed with a bright, sunny, spring day. Their happiness is evident in the way they interact with each other. They are constantly smiling and laughing which makes me so happy. Photographing them was truly a joy! Their wedding is going to be amazing :) Yay for June!

Nicole and Mike are married!!! It was so awesome being a part of their wedding Saturday. Nicole looked absolutely amazing (as I knew she would) and everything turned out just perfect. I can’t believe my best friend is married! Ah, so crazy and exciting!

I’ve been anxiously awaiting the day I was able to post her bridal portraits that we shot earlier this year at my uncle’s farm. It was freezing cold. Like, it was probably the coldest day this year… I’m not even kidding. Nicole didn’t complain once and as always, had a big smile on her face. We put together a last minute bouquet with ranunculus, dusty miller, and some found greenery. And when I say found, I mean, I pulled over on the side of the road and cut it. Ha!

And her fur stole added so much to the shoot. I loveeeeed it! She just looked so incredible. I am so, so excited to finally share these! I can’t wait to their wedding images to come back from the lab!

Weekend FestivitiesMy BFF is getting married & I'm off to NYC

Wow, what an incredible week it’s been! I feel so blessed and lucky to have the opportunity to work in a field I love. I am so grateful!! I have been anxiously awaiting this weekend. It’s an exciting one.

My best friend in the whole wide world, Nicole, is GETTING MARRIED! She has been my best friend since we met in high school. I love that girl more than words can describe. We could have fun with each other doing just about anything. I am so thankful to have her in my life. I am SO happy she’s found an incredible man she will be able to spend the rest of her life with. I wonder if Mike realizes how lucky he is?! I couldn’t be more excited for her and Mike. They are truly an incredible pair. My family and I are thrilled to celebrate their love tomorrow!!!

Monday, I will be flying up to New York to be a part of Jen Huang’s workshop! Wahoo! I’m excited to make new friends, to travel, and to learn from such a talented and incredible woman. All of this also means that I will be out of the office until Thursday, May 2nd. If you send me an email during that time, please be patient with me as I will answer them when I come back, in the order that they were received.

Cheers to a happy, beautiful weekend!

This is an image that my assistant, Sarah, captured of Nicole and I dancing at her cousin’s wedding in the fall. (Please don’t judge my outfit, I was shooting) It is my absolute favorite image of the two of us! <3
