Lansdowne Resort Wedding in Leesburg: Virginia Wedding Photographer

I wish I could share the full gallery of this wedding with you all, but out of respect for the privacy of my clients, I'm going to do the Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds version.  This ceremony was held at Lansdowne Resort in Leesburg, Virginia.  The day was beautiful and perfect for a fall wedding.  This wedding was somewhat of a last minute adventure.  The bride contacted me just a few weeks before her wedding.  Her family was visiting from over seas and it seemed like the perfect time to hold …

Tricia + Rees are Married and before Hurricane Sandy: Evergreen Country Club Wedding, Virginia Wedding Photographer

Tricia and Rees, what can I say?  Even though a storm was looming and you weren't married outdoors as you had hoped, your ceremony was perfect and you could feel the love fill the room as you two exchanged vows.  The rain held off just in time for us to capture you two, just being you and enjoying each other.  I feel honored to be your storyteller and I hope you enjoy just a small peak into what I saw through my eyes.  Congratulations Tricia & Rees! Loved that she had a personalized hanger …
