audra+jonathan: hartfield, virginia wedding

 you may remember audra and jonathan from their engagement session which took place a couple of months prior to their august wedding.  we had such a great time the day of their session, i just knew their wedding day was going to be equally fun too! though it was raining heavily the day of their wedding,  it never dampened anyone's spirits. the couple chose to get married in a beautiful historic brick church built in 1717.  the church is very special to audra, as this is where she attended with her family growing up.  it was such a lovely ceremony!

 the cocktail reception was held close by at the piankatank river golf club. coral & gray were their bright, cheerful wedding colors and were also used in their fabulous invitations designed by another former bride, april of {paper} dolls design.  everyone enjoyed the buffet which included smoked salmon and shrimp cocktail, appropriate for a coastal wedding.  the fun and dancing continued throughout the reception, thanks in part to a fantastic DJ!

early into the evening, the rain finally cleared the skies and the sun came out! it was just in time to capture a few of the wedding party out on the green & of audra and jonathan before they departed on their honeymoon.  the second image from the last is of yours truly in the purple top arranging the wedding party group for their photos.  my partner, terry, captured this shot of me from the porch.  i didn't know he took it until i was editing a week or so later after the wedding!    

we really enjoyed working with such a sweet couple and their families. we want to congratulate them on the their new home and a recent addition to their family, an adorable chocolate lab puppy

hartfield, virginia engagement session: audra+jonathan

recently i made a trip up to hartfield for audra and jonathan's super fun engagement session. we met along the piankatank river at the golf club, where their wedding reception will be held later this summer. audra's parents joined us for the evening session and they knew all the best places to go. and to get there, the club allowed us to borrow a couple of golf carts.

it was wonderful getting to know audra and jonathan before their big day and to see how excited they are to be getting married! we finished up just as the sun was setting over the river. it was a beautiful site to see. i love and miss this area of tidewater, virginia, but so very grateful that i get to come back,  thanks to many of my wonderful couples!

see you next month, audra and jonathan.  your wedding will be here before you know it!
