I met Chris and Becky when I did their engagement shoot back in July and they are awesome! We had a great time exploring downtown Richmond and I enjoyed getting to know them. They were so natural in front of the camera and by the time their wedding day arrived, they were pros! It was a gorgeous Saturday when Chris and Becky were married and many friends and family gathered together to witness this joyous occasion. The church was stunning and the ceremony was beautiful. I dont think they could have asked for a better day, it was just perfect! THANK YOU Becky and Chris for choosing me as your wedding photographer to capture the happiest day of your lives! It was an honor! I hope you enjoy some favorites from that special day.

BEAUTIFUL!!
Chris looking handsome as ever…
Chris and Becky chose to do a “first look” before their ceremony. If you have never heard of this before, it is simply a few moments where the bride and groom can see each other before the ceremony. This is such an intimate time for them because for the rest of the day, they will be with family and friends so this gives them a chance to embrace the day and take a few precious minutes together…with just the two of them. I LOVED being able to do a first look with them and I highly recommend this to all of my couples! It is something new and definitely not of the norm and totally NOT traditional, but I love it!! 🙂
Married!
How crafty is Becky?? She made this beautiful sign and it made for great pictures! 🙂
Ummm…how AMAZING is this staircase?!?! These are my favorites 🙂
The church was beautiful as well so I couldnt help taking a few in there. 🙂
Becky, you look amazing!!
Loving the light in these images!
I love the fact that they carved out so much time for their photography! It makes SUCH a difference when you have 45 minutes as opposed to 15!
Onto the reception! Becky did all of the decorations herself. LOVE them!
So excited they had photo props…great pictures with all the props are further down in the post.
First dance!
