Jenna’s Bridal Portrait Session at The Town Center of Virginia Beach

Sunday, December 20, 2009

I am thrilled that Jenna is now married so I can share some of the photographs from her bridal session with you. We chose The Town Center of Virginia Beach as the location for the photo shoot and Jenna was so excited.

As a wedding photographer, it was so much fun to work with Jenna. She was also a real trooper when the temperature decided to make a run toward the lower end of the thermometer on the day of her bridal session. Needless to say, Jenna showed up right on schedule looking absolutely stunning. You would never know by looking at these pictures that she spent more than an hour braving the chilly autumn air in her wedding gown!

Carrie’s Bridal Portrait Session at the historic Branch House in Richmond

Sunday, September 27, 2009

Carrie’s decision to use the historic Branch House in Richmond for her bridal portrait worked out great. Currently included in the National Registry of Historic Places, it was built in on picturesque Monument Avenue in 1916. We had it all to ourselves on a Saturday afternoon to photograph the bridal session and wound up using several great locations throughout the property. But this wonderful traditional setting was only background scenery, as Carrie was the center of everyone’s attention.

Not only is Carrie a beautiful bride, she is one of the kindest and sweetest people that I know. One of my favorite pictures is of her standing in the atrium of the grand hall in front of the cathedral style windows with the sunshine streaming in. Timeless beauty.

A Great Affair Bridal Registry - Carrie looks beautiful and the grand hall is absolutely gorgeous and perfect for a wedding. I agree, my favorite is Carrie standing in the atrium. I love the photos!

Vivian’s Bridal Portrait Session in the Oak Moon Photography studio in Virginia Beach

Sunday, August 9, 2009

As a wedding photographer, sometimes the weather can be your best friend and sometimes…well, not so much. We had already rescheduled Vivian’s bridal portrait two times because of inclement weather when we heard the latest forecast…more rain. So, I suggested we photograph her bridal session in my studio and she instantly agreed. Vivian is a natural in front of the camera and her pictures show it.

All my brides are amazingly beautiful and Vivian definitely fits into that category. Her sister is a Mary Kay Cosmetics consultant and was also in my studio that day to do Vivian’s hair and make-up during the bridal session. Doesn’t she look magnificent?

Terri’s Bridal Portrait Session in Norfok prior to her Destination Wedding

Sunday, April 19, 2009

It was so much fun photographing Terri. She chose a fabulous garden in Norfolk for her bridal portrait and we scheduled it just before leaving for her destination wedding. The garden was absolutely stunning and it turned out to be the perfect backdrop for Terri’s bridal session.

One of my favorite photographs of Terri is her expression as the wind is blowing her wedding dress. We had just moved to a garden area closer to the bank of the Lafayette River and the wind was gusting like crazy there. Totally enjoying it, Terri looked absolutely perfect in spite of the ‘breeze’. I smile every time I look at that picture. Don’t you just love those unplanned moments!
