Christine & Michael Engagements Maymont Park Richmond, Virginia

I absolutely loved photographing Christine and Michael’s engagement session at Maymont Park Richmond, Virginia last weekend. It was a hot day but both were troopers and we had a blast exploring the areas of the park! This was the third time I have shot at this location and it definitely didn’t disappoint and still have not seen all of the park yet. Christine and Michael had suggested it as a location and I was all for it, she said it was the perfect location because it blended with what the both were looking for.

Christine and Michael are getting married this September and I can’t wait for their wedding and at one of my favorite venues as well! Here are just a few of my favorites from our engagement shoot at Maymont Park Richmond, Virginia.

Rochelle + Leonard {Married}

This was a gorgeous event, held at one of our favorite Norfolk venues, the Half Moone Cruise and Celebration Center. Rochelle and Leonard were all smiles (and some tears of happiness) as they tied the knot in front of their friends and family at the St. Mark’s Catholic Church. Anyone that knows these two will tell you how warm and genuine Rochelle and Leonard are to anyone they meet. And they’re SO much fun to be around and SO much fun in front of the camera! Congrats Rochelle and Leonard!

Lightning Virginia Beach Town Center July 23, 2011

I love a good storm, my love for photography started out with shooting photos of lightning. Last year and for the most part of this year have not yielded any good weather photos. I was very happy to walk away with some keepers last night and a photo which shows two step leaders coming off the top of The Westin which appears to be at least 100 feet high and a smaller one coming off the second largest building which is smaller but still visible. This is very rare to catch on camera. Here are a few lightning strikes from last nights storms in Virginia Beach…

Jiselle And Nick’s Wedding Day Yorktown Virginia

I enjoyed being around Jiselle and Nick during their engagements and the wedding was no different, what a fun and loving couple and it’s obvious how much they care for each other just by watching their stolen glances, quick kisses, and private conversations. The wedding took off without delay on the beach in Yorktown, Virginia early Saturday morning. The reception took place at the Historic Powhatan Resort in Williamsburg, Virginia. I am still moved by Nick’s brothers speech as I am sure the whole room was, very heartfelt and sincere. Here are a few photos I liked from the day..

Joanna And Kelly’s Wedding Day

The Norfolk Botanical Garden was in full bloom for Joanna and Kelly’s wedding day and with a good chance of rain, luck played out on the side of the new couples special day. I remember meeting Joanna and Kelly a year and a half ago and what seemed a short jump for me, I think took forever for Joanna and Kelly to get too. I really enjoyed and I am blessed that you both allowed me to be part of your wedding day and I think with all the bumps in the road you both have had over the last year this is a new beginning for you both and nothing but good things and good news lay down the road ahead with your new life together… Good luck to the both of you….
