Weddings

Robbie + Jess

filed in:


…the front door and heard the excitement.  There were girls running around everywhere! Their navy blue dresses blurred past as they made last minute touches before Jess slipped on her dress.  As Jess put on her dress, I whispered to a bridesmaid “this is my favorite part!”.  There are moments during a wedding day where all of the chaos and stress subside and everyone is caught up in that one moment.  When the bride puts on her dress, it is one of those moments.  Everyone stops and stares. This moment always happens the same way at every wedding I shoot, it never fails. Everyone in the room stops what they are doing to admire the bride and they are amazed by her beauty.

When Jess came out in her white satin dress that fit her perfectly, everyone was in awe.  Jess was stunning and Robbie was all smiles when he caught his first glance of her, walking down the aisle.  It was such an honor for me to be a part of their big day. We all went to CNU and have so many mutual friends.  I love celebrating at weddings where I actually know some of the guests. The reception is always so much fun!  Mr. and Mrs. Heath celebrated their wedding day at the Colonial Heritage Clubhouse in Williamsburg, VA.  It was so classic and beautiful. Robbie and Jess, I hope Mexico was amazing and they you are excited to come home to a ton of fun pictures!!! Thank you thank you thank you for allowing me to be a part of your big day! Much love!

That girl loves her puppy! … And her puppy loves her. She followed her around the house ALL morning!

Beautiful bride!

Oh hey tunnel! I LOVE you!

Ah! I feel like they are rockstars right now! … It’s all about the light.
