Leah & CJ – Newport News, VA Wedding photography

Leah and CJ had a beautiful late August wedding with family and friends gathering by the banks of the James River for a lovely wedding ceremony. CJ is a colleague from my former career as a lab technician. In the lab, you could always count on CJ to get things done correctly, on time, whenever you asked with the rest of the team following his lead. Because of that, I really wanted to get the best images for him and his bride after they decided to have me produce their wedding photography!

With the help of Jenn Kelley, I think we were able to capture some especially great wedding photography from beginning to end of Leah and CJ’s day. They had lots of time for pre-wedding portraits. During the ceremony, they had a little breeze. Finally, they had a full dance floor the rest of the night. Congratulations you two! I hope we get the chance to see you again – probably at a Redskins game or three 🙂 Enjoy your photos!

Wedding photography is a privilege whenever a couple selects you for the responsibility. For this reason, I work as hard as I can to get images that a wedding couple would enjoy looking at and sharing for years to come.

River City Ballroom Dance competition

Earlier this year, I photographed the River City Ballroom Dance competition in Richmond, VA for the second time. It is organized by Veronica and Lee at Simply Ballroom. On this occasion, it was held again at the Greater Richmond Convention Center conveniently located downtown. From there you have easy access to hotels, and restaurants. Moreover, there is plenty of room on the dance floor! The number of dancers doubled this year. With this in mind, there was plenty of opportunity for practice and comments from judges and other participants.

Prior to the start of the competition, we had a chance to catch up with familiiar friends. While some are from our home base in northern Virginia, some are local to Richmond. Especially the dancers from the host studio of Simply Ballroom. Veronica and Lee involve many of their students in the event. They are amazing hosts, and we look forward to our next trip south!

Engagement photos

Engagement Photos with Leah and CJ in Newport News, Virginia

CJ and Leah are going to be married this August, and we got together to get some engagement photos of the two of them. It was very hot and sunny in Newport News, VA, but they gladly worked through posts for me. They told me about how CJ proposed, and their plans for the wedding day.

They are well-prepared and are planning for a fun time with family and friends. We were able to get some shots with their dogs as well, and they cooperated for a few snaps!  At this time, they picked area by the Mariner’s Museum Park. Although it was very close to a busy part of time, this was a nice oasis next to the lake. Leah I met only recently. However, CJ has been a work friend for a few years. Now that we both have moved on to new career paths, it was nice to see him doing so well!

Thanks for having me down for the day, and I looked forward to your wedding later this summer!
