Virginia Beach, VA Wedding Photographer ~ Grand Affairs ~ Cherish and Jeff

Posted on December 18, 2009

Cherish and Jeff were married at Grand Affairs in Virginia Beach on Saturday, Dec. 12th, in a beautifully sweet ceremony, their close friends and family surrounding them. I have to say Cherish is my most organized bride to date, I loved it. Another thing I loved was the way that Cherish and Jeff welcomed me with open arms, the relationships I build with my clients is the biggest perk of being a wedding photographer. Here are some of my favorites of Cherish and Jeff’s Christmas themed wedding. Oh, and on a side note, Special thanks to Robbie Hickman for coming out and shooting with me, as always it was a pleasure working with you.  I have added the full size photos of each of the pictures in this post to Cherish and Jeff’s gallery, if you are interested in purchasing them you can click here.  The complete set of their wedding photos will be available in Jan.

Cherish’s mom, Donna, is an event planner, her business is Foy Enterprises.  Donna and Cherish did all this themselves, it was beautiful!

Love this dress, it was perfect for a winter wedding.

Rings and a Christmas tree…. perfect

I was so excited when I walked into the room, everything Cherish has told me about was there, and even more grand (no pun intended)

This garter is so Jeff, I have a feeling he was surprised

The ring belonged to her dad, she wore it down the aisle

Don’t the red dresses rock!

Too cute!

I love when a toast gets this kind of reaction

I also love watching other people while the toasts are going on, this is the brides sister Tammy

Tammy and her fiance Brandon are getting married in April…. guess who is going to be photographing their wedding

Cake!

So there is a funny story that goes along with this collage, if you were there you may in fact be laughing right now.

Tammy and Brandon again, they are just so sweet together I had to get one more

I do believe this was during the Cupid Shuffle, I also do believe I may have been out there going to the left, to the left… just a warning to my future clients I will probably dance a little at your wedding, mainly because I can’t help myself.

I would call this the garter toss, but it very much so aimed

During the reception Cherish came over and asked if I wanted to head to Town Center with them for a few minutes to get a few shots in front of the great big Christmas tree, of course I said yes… then jumped and down with joy after I walked away and no one could see me. I loved getting a few extra minutes of couples time with Cherish and Jeff… and I loved this tree.

And a goodbye kiss

Cherish and Jeff,
I had so much fun with ya’ll. I wish you the best in your marriage and look forward to seeing you in April (or June)

Fondly,
Becca

Williamsburg, VA Wedding Photographer ~ Kristen and Jeremy Engaged!

Posted on December 3, 2009

I’ve always had a love for history, Virginia history is my most favorite (okay so grammer not so much a strong point) Colonial Williamsburg for me is like Wonderland for Alice. The old buildings, the cool grounds, the gardens, more gardens, and more gardens. It’s all just awe inspiring to me. Hopefully Kristen and Jeremy didn’t get too annoyed at my giddiness, there I go with the grammer again. Anyways, here are some of my favorites from Kristen and Jeremy’s fall engagement session in Colonial Williamsburg. I am looking forward to their wedding on the 19th!

They are so sweet together and always laughing, which makes me smile

This may be one of my favorites of all time

Love the hands, that’s the Governor’s Palace above them

This is why I can’t say the other is my favorite of all time, because I’m soooo loving this one!

I will leave you with this collage! Can you guess what they are doing? More importantly can you guess who won?
