A Colonial Williamsburg Wedding

History was made in the personal lives of Kimberly and Michael in the very historical setting of Colonial Williamsburg, VA on July 31st. Softly bathed in the natural light within Bruton Parrish Church, the couple exchanged their vows before their closest friends and family. Much history has taken place in and around the walls of this church, as presidents and founding fathers have attended services in this same venue. The church bells at Bruton Parrish Church on Duke of Gloucester Street could be heard from The Williamsburg Inn where the couple enjoyed dinner and dancing after their nuptials.

History has now added the names of this University of Georgia couple who now begin their own personal journey and new life together. Congratulations!

Moonlight Romance

A full moon partially obscured by clouds provided the foundation of this romantic portrait of Lauren and Matt during the waning hour of their wedding day. Though the hour was 11:20pm, our last image of the day was created with the light of the moon as well as a taste of off camera flash to enhance the rim light around this newlywed couple. I actually think Lauren and Matt forgot about me during the few moments it took to create the image. Standing in a parking lot filled with cars and a shopping center in the distance, the camera was positioned at a low angle to exclude any visual distractions.

This image beautifully compliments the collection of photographs that will illustrate this wonderful day in Lauren and Matt's life.

The presentation of cuisine can be a true art form. Through the years I have been impressed at the precision of this edible art and the attention to detail that venues take to make newlyweds and their guests feel extra special. Alison and Charlie selected the Country Club of Virginia to entertain their guests and celebrate their wedding reception. The chefs at CCV created beautiful culinary works of art that was a feast for the eye's and mouth. Congratulations to Alison and Charlie and to the staff of CCV for a beautiful evening.
