Virginia Mountain Love - Virginia Wedding Photography

It’s Wedding Wednesday and recently I met this great young couple and they had their wedding in the Shenandoah Valley. The setting was chilly but so picturesque. The couple was high school sweetheart and had a small church family wedding in the hills of Shenandoah. The church was their local church that the bride had been brought up in since she was younger.

The wedding party consisted of all their high school friends and they had a great time. Oh and the food was home cooked southern food complete with sweet tea and lemonade! I was in heaven and tried to take a container home. The most unique part of this wedding was the Unity Cross…it was a different take on the candle or sand concept and was more Christ focused. I really enjoyed this family and all the emotion of the day and I wish them all the best.

A Princess and Her True Love - Bowie Maryland Wedding Photographer

Do you ever know why so many of your wedding vendors are still stressing the importance of a detailed wedding timeline? Well this amazing couple did and they did it very well. The afternoon and evening was great. It started on time and ended on time with a horse drawn carriage exit. Love was definitely in the air and felt throughout the day in this family. We enjoyed working with them immensely.

A wedding day timeline is hour by hour written description that represents how your wedding is supposed to take place. It provides a roadmap of how the event is going to go from start to finish. 

Wedding timelines are essential to the vendors and service workers who are in charge of the event from start to finish. When complete details are not included in the timeline, it could be very hard to keep an event on track. In addition, most times guests need a little direction on where they are supposed to be and what exactly they are supposed to do. 

Keeping a fixed wedding timeline helps the people you hire to guide your guests during the event and to know what to pay attention to during the event. Not only is an excellent opportunity to understand exactly what your guest imagine for the event, but also a fantastic way to solve some time issues while visualizing the event. Many things can go wrong with your event. That is why is necessary to have an actionable plan and also an intelligent event coordinator that will make your plan comes in the form of a timeline.

Honduran & Salvadoran Wedding - Rockhill Plantation Stafford Virginia

July 16th I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Norvy and Francisco at the Rockhill Plantation in Stafford, Virginia.   This estate was amazing and the grounds were beautiful.  The staff was very friendly and the couple was simple adorable.  The day was a but warm and the ceremony was outdoors but the guests made it through the intimate ceremony filled with love.  You could tell that the the couple was madly in love with each other and couldn't wait for the day.  It was as if it was just the two of them.  The parents of the bride walked her down to her groom and the two were wed. 

We had a short time out on the vast lawn of Rockhill Plantation for the formal portraits and then we moved to the reception where we danced the night away for a couple of hours. The couple then exited their reception with a well lit sparkler exit.  I wish the couple all the best.
