Virginia Wedding Stories & Planning Advice

Some Days I Even Put the Camera Down to Write.

Wedding Stories, Useful Advice, and the Occasional Tangent.

Some posts are a peek into the weddings I’ve photographed. Others answer the questions that come up when you’re planning your own. How much time do portraits need? Should you do a first look? What happens if it rains besides everyone suddenly becoming a meteorologist?
