Intimate Wedding at the Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, Va - Natalie & Like

Natalie & Michael are another couple that because of Covid, they had to rearrange their plans and reduce the size of their wedding because of Covid.

They opted out with a small intimate wedding, with just family and close friends at the beautiful Jefferson Hotel in Richmond.

Where was your first date? : It was at Mill Mountain Coffee downtown. We sat and talked for three hours about anything and everything. I think that was the moment we both knew.

Wedding in times of Covid - Irvine Estate - Lexington, Virginia - Kara & Tim

Planning a wedding is easy task said no one ever… Have you tried planning one in the middle of a pandemic crisis? Just the thought of it gave me chills….. Well, until I shot Kara & Tim’s wedding!

When they first started planning out their big wedding, they never thought that anything like a world spread virus would push them to make big changes! Many times during the planning they felt like they were sacrificing a lot. Changing their date was not an option, so they decided to reduce the guest list and focus on everybody’s safety.

Romantic Wedding at West Manor Estate - Virginia Wedding Photographer - Erin & Devon

Romantic Wedding at West Manor Estate - Virginia Wedding Photographer - Erin & Devon

I first met Erin in 2010, when she became my next door neighbor. I had just had my son and that was the same year I started photography professionally. Soon enough, Erin and her twin sister, became my models. Being there to photograph Erin & Devon’s wedding was a lot more than just being their wedding photographer, I was a family member.

Their wedding was supposed to take place in 2018, but unfortunately a very terrible accident happened in their family so they had to postpone. It made their relationship stronger and make them aware of how fragile life can be, making them enjoy every moment with their loved ones even more.

Their day went by so beautifully, full of emotions, at West Manor Estate. The groomsmen all elegant and tight in their tuxedos and the bridesmaids gorgeous in their mismatched silver sage, dusty blue and burgundy dresses. The cake was a cappuccino flavor, Devon’s favorite flavor!
