Revisiting this beautiful wedding day because I couldn’t help but share a few more moments at The Second Presbyterian Church of RVA. From the quiet anticipation of getting ready at The John Marshall Ballrooms bridal and grooms suites, to the groom’s first look as his bride walked down the aisle, and the timeless portraits we captured inside and around the church. Some moments are simply too special to leave in the gallery. 🤍

You probably don’t need 3+ hours of dance floor photos. 👀

When the dancing starts, I’m right there capturing all the high-energy, unscripted moments as everyone lets loose 🪩✨

But after a solid stretch, there are only so many variations of dancing.. so I love briefly stepping away with my couples for evening photos!

Think flash-lit portraits, city lights, or a quiet moment under the stars 🌙 It only takes about 15 minutes before you’re back to the party.

That balance is what makes the coverage feel complete.

The goal isn’t every minute of the reception. It’s a gallery that feels full, dynamic, and tells the full story of the night 🤍

A timeless celebration for Jessie & Edwin, filled with elegant details, heartfelt moments, and a love that effortlessly took center stage. ✨

Their day began with getting ready at The John Marshall Ballrooms before heading next door to Second Presbyterian Church for a traditional wedding ceremony centered around their faith. The church’s beautiful architecture served as a stunning backdrop for their newlywed portraits, adding an elegant and timeless touch to their story.

Afterward, we all headed back to The John Marshall Ballrooms to get the party started! 🥂 From heartfelt toasts and joyful laughter to a packed dance floor, the evening was filled with so much love and celebration. It was truly an honor to document the beginning of this beautiful new chapter for Jessie & Edwin. 🤍 stay tuned for more images of this gorgeous wedding!

You can never go wrong with golden hour portraits✨

One of the things I’m always paying attention to during your session is where the light is falling, how it’s changing, and which locations are going to photograph best at that exact moment. I’ll help scout and guide us toward the spots that give us that soft, glowing, romantic feel without you having to think twice about it.

Because sometimes the difference between a pretty location and a magical one is simply knowing when and where to use the light. 🤍
