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!

Mary and Michael

It was a beautiful ceremony and celebration at the Fair Oaks Marriott for Mary and Michael. Family, friends gathered to witness their union from the ketubah signing to the vows under the chuppah in the spacious atrium. The celebration was complete with a full brunch and a healthy wedding cake.

On this occasion, the Fair Oaks Marriott has a beautiful interior space for wedding ceremonies. With a very tall atrium, the overhead light was beautiful on all the faces. Undeniably, this is a great option is you want to have an outdoor – feeling ceremony. However, you are worried about our humid summers, or unpredictable rains.

Thanks especially to Mary and Michael for having me cover their wedding ceremony. They were in particular very accommodating to the friends and family that traveled to celebrate with them. Congratulations to you both!

If you are planning an upcoming wedding, please use this post to illustrate what I can do for you. Planning your photos is very different compared to many other vendors for your wedding. Firstly, you will be spending a lot more time with your photographer. Be sure that your personalities mesh as you will be spending a lot of time together on a stressful day!

Kathleen and Jim

With all the weddings I have been to recently, it was nice to be a guest for Kathleen and Jim at their celebration! Jim was one of my oldest friends from high school. We had a good crowd back then – mostly band mates, having good-natured fun at rehearsals, concerts, trips. Jim was always current with sports, and always ready to pick you up with a good laugh! Some of my best memories of high school – Jim running around on stage in our production of “South Pacific” with a coconut bra and grass skirt as he played Lt. Billis, or Bryony letting Jim take a quick joy-ride in her tiny Ford Festiva around Locust Shade Park

Well, it was nice to see that Jim hasn’t changed at all! (The only difference – a slight change in moniker to “Jimmy”). We were honored to be invited to the wedding. I had to bring my camera to snag some personal photos for myself. Mike was their official photographer, and he gave me a quick peek at some of his images at the reception. The album is going to be great! Thanks Kathleen and Jimmy for letting us join your friends and family on your beautiful wedding day!
