Celebration in the Vineyard

Ashley and Seth were married on a warm summer evening in August. This beautiful candid was photographed in collaboration with my wife,Wanda and associate photographer, Angel Hart. As the sun set over Rosemont Winery in Bracey, VA., the newlyweds shared a kiss just outside the vineyard of ripened grapes. The celebration continued with dinner at the winery and dancing until midnight.

The Unscripted Moment


Weddings seldom go as planned. In fact the unscripted moments are often the best and most memorable. In this case, the flower girl decided not to walk down the aisle at the very last moment. Even with gentle reassurance she was determined to not make the journey down the aisle with hundreds of eyes focused on her. As the ceremony continued the soloist (her mother) began to sing. Curious, her daughter peeked around the corner to see a warm smile from her mother and a discreet gesture that encouraged this priceless moment; unscripted but now forever remembered.

A Father's Prayer


A wedding day is full of hustle and activity, but I often witness fathers finding a peaceful place to offer a quiet prayer or collect their thoughts before giving their daughter away. This image was captured as I was walking down the hall to photograph the bride's hurried activity with all of her bridesmaids making their final preparations. In contrast, I passed a half open door, and noticed the father of the bride, alone and in quiet contemplation. Without interruption, I discreetly captured the above image. My heart filled with emotion as I saw myself in this moment years from now. This image is now part of the bride's wedding story, complete with the memory of her father's prayer.
