Destinee and David’s Wedding at Grand Affairs in Virginia Beach

Sunday, February 7, 2010

There are two unstoppable forces in the universe that march exclusively to the beat of their own drummer…one is true love between a man and a woman and the other is the military. Destinee and David were obviously in love with each other and it was destined to be only a matter of time before they would be married. However, when it became clear that Destinee would be reporting for duty in southern California in January, these two unstoppable forces quickly combined to produce an absolutely beautiful wedding celebration.

After working with Destinee initially to reserve the date for the wedding, she asked me to…

Jenna’s Bridal 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…

Carrie and Brian’s Wedding and Portrait Booth at the historic Wilton House Museum in Richmond

Sunday, October 4, 2009

As soon as Carrie described the venue she and Brian had chosen for their wedding, I just knew it would be a wedding photographers dream. Well, it was all that and so much more! The historic Wilton House Museum in Richmond was built in 1753 true to the Colonial American style of the period. Situated with a commanding view of the James River, it provided a truly majestic backdrop for Carrie and Brian’s wedding ceremony.

The wedding was literally packed with family and friends (and the entire soccer team) because to know Carrie and Brian is to love them. To capture those special memories, we setup…

Vivian’s Bridal 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 consultant and was also in my studio that day to do Vivian’s hair and make-up…

Leah and Brandon’s Engagement Session on the beach in Virginia Beach

Sunday, July 26, 2009

Many people enjoy the beach, but there was never any question about where Leah and Brandon wanted to photograph their engagement portrait. We met late in the afternoon after a brief rain shower at a beautiful section of beach near Fort Story. The next hour and a half was an engagement photographers dream as I asked Leah and Brandon to just be themselves. I simply stayed out of the way and captured some incredible photos on the beach.

OK, I am going to say it. Of all the engagement portraits I have photographed, this one is my favorite. It is so easy to see why Leah and Brandon make such a great couple when I look…

Chasity and Jason’s Beach Wedding at the Virginia Beach Resort Hotel on the Chesapeake Bay

Sunday, June 14, 2009

Destination weddings are always very special events and Chasity and Jason’s was certainly no exception. Living and working in the Washington DC area, they were both excited about exchanging wedding vows on the beach at the Virginia Beach Resort Hotel. The weather was perfect on their wedding day with bright sunshine and not a rain cloud in the sky as the bride and groom were married on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay in front of their family and friends.

I absolutely love the picture with all the bubbles from the bubble machine swirling around…

Terri’s Bridal 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…
