Wedding: Molly & Trae - Rosewood Bermuda
Molly and Trae - very well may be - one of the sweetest couples I’ve had the pleasure of working with! When we linked up to first discuss their small wedding at Rosewood Bermuda, we instantly “clicked” when we realized we all went to college in the same small town in southern Virginia (and all had breakfast at the tiny dinner right off the main road - albeit it a few years in apart). Many congrats to the two of them!

Their wedding day was flawless!
A special congrats to the newly weds!

Wedding: M & C - Private Home, Bermuda
Who doesn’t love a backyard wedding? Furthermore, who doesn’t love a backyard wedding with a gorgeous water view on Memorial Day Weekend?! I first met Maddy - the founder and owner of Novah Swimwear - and Caleb at a New Years’ Eve Party at The Loren Resort, where Jim and I were working the photo booth. In the Fall of 2020, they reached out about wedding photography! Finally, the day came when Maddy & Caleb said “I do” at her parents’ house in Bermuda. Days after the wedding, the couple hosted an amazing wedding celebration on The Zara.

Wedding: Kristie & Jeremy - Annandale, VA
Who doesn’t love a “homegrown” wedding?
It’s not everyday you get to photograph your childhood friends’ wedding… and it’s certainly not everyday you get to photograph part of the wedding at your own parents’ house. For this reason, this wedding was an emotional one to capture. Kristie and I - along with her brother, Scott - grew up together. I was either down at their house or they were up at ours. We spent Saturday nights and holidays together, swam on the same teams, fished our neighborhood creek together, terrorized the neighborhood on bicycles together, and got into good-ole fashion mischief together.

When Kristie introduced us to Jeremy - I knew he was the right guy for her. After courting each other for a few years (and with a pandemic raging), they decided it was time to tie the knot. For reasons important to the bride and groom - their wedding date could not wait! For any couple who planned a 2020 wedding (and actually got married in 2020) - I think it’s fair to say that the couple’s decision to wed was not taken lightly.
Oddly enough, when I first heard of Kristie’s wedding, I already had a plane ticket in hand because I was flying home to help my folks with a “family matter”. It seemed “fate” had two reasons to bring me back in good ole Northern Virginia; one to assist my folks and two - to capture Kristie’s special day. Within a matter of weeks, Kristie and Jeremy planned a Micro “Covid Safe” Wedding; taking every precaution reasonably possible. The ceremony was held at Green Spring Gardens in our hometown of Annadale, Virginia.

Elopement: Lauren & Ed - Horseshoe Bay & The Loren
Lauren and Ed were married in the "midst” of a pandemic. With their masks, wedding attire, and dog - the two “tied the knot” at Bermuda’s beautiful Horseshoe Bay Beach. After which, they held a virtual reception at The Loren. (How cool, right?) This included a virtual cocktail hour via Zoom with several of their friends and family members. They also held their First Dance and Cake Cutting over Zoom. From there, we went over to The Residence at The Loren. Lauren - being a documentary filmmaker - and Ed - being a doctor - both shared a common love of English Sparking wine. They cracked open a bottle and we set off onto the beach for our sunset photos - the perfect ending to an elopement!
