Wedding Season has officially begun! And what better way to start than with TJ and Meredith!!! You may remember their fall engagement session at JMU… there was a TON of Purple and Yellow going on… and their wedding wasn’t any different! These two JMU Alum celebrated what I like to call the “JMU Wedding” last saturday!! Purple and Yellow filled the bouquets and JMU apparel kept showing up everywhere! From the guestbook to the garter, I think it’s safe to say that TJ and Meredith LOVE their school!! It feels like we were JUST walking about campus talking about this day. Meredith emailed me over a year before their wedding date and we set up a meeting time… with the WHOLE family! I loved meeting her parents
and TJ from the beginning because when I showed up on the wedding day, I literally felt like I was a part of their giant, fun loving family! The laughter and cackling from their hotel room could be heard all the way down the hall and there was NOTHING BUT JOY filling their wedding day. TJ and Meredith have been dating for quite some time and so TJ is just considered a part of the family these days. I totally understand this concept since Michael and I dated for 8 YEARS!!! After a relationship THAT long… you are so comfortable with each other’s family’s that they feel like your own. This was so evident on Saturday. As their parents walked them down the aisle, tears of joy streamed from all of their family members faces. This day has been in the works for a LONG time and it was beautiful… absolutely beautiful. The weather, the couple, the venue… it was just an amazing wedding celebration and I was so honored to be a part of it! I don’t know how it happens…but I always end up working with the most INCREDIBLE couples… and I’m thankful.. TJ and Meredith, you two are the greatest example of why I LOVE doing what I do. Being with you on your wedding day was such a privilege!!! I love you both and I am SO excited for you guys!!! Enjoy your blog post!!!

Most beautiful day for an outdoor ceremony!A year ago, we promised to find a solution for those who were complaining about their R6 raw files looking dull and lifeless in Lightroom. However, due to various circumstances, we couldn’t deliver on that promise until now.
Kelly is an incredible wedding photographer who has been shooting 90 weddings a year. I know, it sounds unbelievable, but it’s true! Kelly’s success and the volume of work she handles is truly impressive.
Your sessions should be working FOR you not against you!
