When I first spoke with Lauren about videography, I was SO excited. They are both such unique, creative and super fun people — I knew working with them would be refreshing and exciting! Lauren has always had a vision for her wedding from the start, so it was a treat getting to collaborate with another artist!

Lauren owns a boutique in Richmond, VA – Addison Handmade & Vintage – which explains why her wedding dress in particular was so prettyl! She actually worked on the dress herself – isn’t it beautiful?! She also handmade all of the hanging wreaths for the reception, and rented some really great pieces of furniture from Mad Hatter Vintage.

While being a drizzly day, I thought it was the most beautiful backdrop with the fog over the mountains and wind moving through the vines. Lauren and Brian were SO excited the whole day from start to finish – no cold weather could have dampened their cheerful moods! Keswick Vineyards had a great layout for them to setup their celebration. With the help of their wedding planner, Kelsey, their day ran smoothly and joyfully!

I’ll never forget the genuine love they had for one another – it was adorable! There was so much excitement between the two of them while standing at the alter during the ceremony – I loved being able to capture those sweet moments for them to have later on.

Enjoy!

The biggest thing that stuck out to me about Hope and Jon was their joy for one another. There are always lots of nerves on a wedding day, especially leading up to the ceremony. But when Hope and Jon saw each other for the first time, there was SO much joy! All of the excitement waiting for the bride to come down the aisle (or in their case, Hope being driven by a horse and carriage!) is just enough to make a video about. I LOVE when the “First Look” happens this way and if you watch the video, you will see why!! 😀

It’s also the SWEETEST most refreshing thing to hear vows read that are thoughtful and honest to one another during the ceremony. When listening to the audio recording of their vows years from now, I can’t imagine how they won’t fall in love over and over again. I wanted to make a point in including the things said about Hope and Jon because there were so many encouraging words spoken over them that day.

We hope you enjoy the video and experience all of the joy and happiness these two shared together!

It’s not every day you work with such great people with big hearts. I knew Kelly back in high school – we used to carpool to school in her little old Volvo! Kelly is one of those kinds of people that when you think of her, you automatically smile. It doesn’t seem possible for her to be any happier, and then Steve came along! Seeing them together, married, on their wedding day was an absolute fairy tale!

Kelly and Steve are two huge adventurers! It’s so adorable when you see two people with the same interests come together as one – like they were made to be together. Besides their love for hiking big beautiful mountains, they both love Jesus and above all, want to glorify him in everything they do, especially their marriage together.

The day couldn’t have been more beautiful itself. With the mountains as a backdrop to their ceremony, and the cool breeze that chilled the air later in the night, it was a dream! Blue Toad Cidery was such a fun venue and fit them perfectly. They had a nice cocktail hour located at the cidery, with the reception that followed just steps away. Everyone danced the night away outside under the string lights and starry night sky. There were people of all ages – young and old – who constantly had smiles on their faces. It was a joy to be a part of!

There’s only so much emotion you can feel from photos, but through moving images with sound, I hope they can relive their wedding day over and over again, feeling those same emotions even years from now. Congrats to Kelly and Steve!!!!

We had a blast shooting Autumn and Brandon’s wedding in Pembroke, Virginia this August! Their wedding ceremony and reception was held at Doe Creek Farm in Pembroke. We felt like we were in another country with all of the rollings hills, mountains, and luscious greenery all around. All of the beauty of the area perfectly matched this sweet couple and their love for eachother!

We got to shoot with Meg Umberger who was AMAZING to be on a team with. Seriously, go check out her work!!! Allison from Doe Creek Farm was a fabulous coordinator who made their day carefree but always on time. Isn’t that the best mix?!

Autumn and Brandon picked out such beautiful elements to incorporate into their day. All in all, it was a serene day that we were so honored to be a part of.
