A little about Becca

First let me start by saying, I'm a wife to Andy and a mom to Tyler, also the proud slave to two horses, Dillon and Blue, and one great dog, Braun. I have a passion for photography that just won't quit. I believe there is always more to learn and I take the time to continue doing so, through both reading and classes. When I'm not spending time with my family, editing pictures, at my full time job, or sleeping, you can find me at the barn. A little about my gear: I shoot with all high quality Nikon ditigal equipment. I have a main and back up camera, so no worries there. I also have off camera flash and some great lenses, everything I need to capture all those special moments. I edit all my pictures using my trusty Mac, Adobe Lightroom 2 and Adobe Photoshop CS4. A little about this site: Instead of having both a blog and a website I have found an option that combines both into one. So please look around and come back often as you will be able to see my latest work through my blog below. At the top of the page you will find links to my portfolio galleries. I love comments so please leave me one. The picture you see of me being silly is courtesy of Andi Grant Photography. Thanks for visiting, hope to see you back soon

Williamsburg, VA Wedding Photographer ~ Kristen and Jeremy Married!

Posted on February 9, 2010

Kristen told me she always wanted to have snow on her wedding.  Wish granted my dear! It snowed buckets that night. When Kristen, Jeremy, and I met originally I asked them what the theme would be for their wedding and she said “winter woodland” they nailed it. The room was GORGEOUS! Kristen and Jeremy are both teachers, they both have the most warm/welcoming smiles, I would have loved to have a teacher with that kind of sincere smile. The love radiated between the two of them, it was an awesome wedding, and I had so much fun shooting it. I will tell you that you will be seeing these two again (sooner rather than later), due to flooding in the area Kristen and Jeremy were forced to move their ceremony from the Historic Church at Jamestown to the Williamsburg Community Building, where their reception was held. Their caterer pulled it off flawlessly and everything turn out beautiful. We all were looking forward to the pictures in and around that glorious old church, so when it warms up a bit and finally stops dumping snow, Kristen and Jeremy will get all dressed up again and we will have a blast doing a “day after” shoot, something for ya’ll to all look forward to. Along for the day with me was my friend John Cachero, we had talked about working together for some time and this hopefully the first of many, please visit his blog to check out his pictures from this wedding.

There were lots of great details at this wedding and you will see them throughout the post… enjoy!

A more traditional ring shot

My most favorite ring shot, this was taken using the floor to balance the camera, this was shot at f/3.5, ISO 400, 1/8 of a second exposure.

Kristen’s brother Rich gave a toast that didn’t leave a dry eye in the house, seriously even I had to wipe away a few tears.
