While I was just a guest at my friends Stephanie and Travis' wedding (they had fabulous Harrisonburg-based photographer Jodi Miller as their official photographer), I got some great pictures and wanted to share them with you. Stephanie and Travis had a beautiful wedding atop Lydia Mountain in Greene County. The ceremony was open air, and the reception was in a great log pavilion! The orange flowers accented by periwinkle flowers and bridesmaids dresses made for some gorgeous photos.
Even though I wasn't the official photographer, I did get to sneak Stephanie and Travis away for a few special shots in a child's log cabin on the property - they'll be living in a log cabin when they return from their honeymoon!

Wafi and Natasha's Wedding
Wafi and Natasha's wedding was set at a family friend's home in Hume, Virginia. Their intimate wedding, with only forty guests in attendance, took place at dusk in a stone garden behind their friends home, facing the lovely Virginia mountains. Surrounded by only their closest friends and family, Wafi and Natasha were right at home, delightfully affectionate and excited to start their life together.

Alycia and Derrick's Engagement Photos
For Alycia and Derrick's engagement photo shoot, we all climbed in the truck with the dogs and drove through a field next to Alycia's dad's house to this beautiful crest of a hill with lovely trees and long, green grass. For those of you who don't know me, I love incorporating the family dogs into photographs. I myself have a mini-dachshund, so I know how much dogs are part of the family. And for Alycia and Derrick, that's even more true! Derrick proposed to Alycia by tying a beautiful engagement ring (see the last photo on the blog) onto Alycia's dog's collar. It's that romantic? You can just tell in these photos how much this couple loves each other!
Henry Family Photos
Part of what I love about my photography job is getting to spend time with friends! While I often develop friendships with my clients, sometimes I get the privilege of photographing families that I've known for a while. Those opportunities are always such a blessing, as they give you a chance to get to know a family as a whole, see how they interact together, and capture in photographs what you love about those people.
Photographing the Henry's was an absolute joy. Their little girl was absolutely precious: happy to smile at the camera, happier still to play with the camera (a privilege I don't allow just any toddler), and just a delight all around. At one point, she came up to me and just wanted me to hold her instead of photograph her!
