Old Silk Mill Wedding | Manassas Wedding Photographer

india Aurogra Vanessa and Jarrod were married on a snowy Saturday this January! It was snowing almost until their ceremony time. It was the most beautiful winter wedding. Vanessa had two first looks- one with her son and the other with her Dad!! Their venue was the Old Silk Mill in Fredricksburg, VA.  Their DJ was incredible, check out the lights in some of the photos. There was lots of fun had at this reception AND dancing … AND dancing… AND dancing. Their wedding day, I believe was exactly how they wanted it- and we were honored to celebrate and capture their wedding!!

The Inn at Kellys Ford Wedding

Everything turned out GOLDEN for this wedding- (this is a term that I use all the time – and it just happens to be the couple’s last name- score for me; ) The weather didn’t cooperate with us- so they had their ceremony inside- which turned out beautiful!! Sarah’s Dad did all the flowers and made the doors used in the ceremony. It did stop raining – well, it drizzled during formals- these two were so so fun!! What a lively reception!! Loved the first look with Sarah’s dad and a bridesmaid reveal -so cute!! Sarah was a stunning bride!! I also loved their sand ceremony- but you know what touches me- their engagement photo was used for the container for the sand- this is so incredibly moving to me!!!

River Farm Boho Engagement Session|1940s Style Shoot

Here is some inspiration for you – this is from a shoot I did about a week ago at River Farm. The talented Virginia Perry of VP-Consulting.net put the whole thing together- and the talents of a mother/daughter makeup team of ticabeauty.com created two looks for this bride (1940s and Boho). I loved both looks and thought that Jen (our Bride/model) looked like Blake Lively’s character in The Age of Adaline: )) After we did the 1940s part of the shoot, we did a boho engagement session with Jen and Jeff. They were a pleasure to work with!!!
