One of my life philosophies is that everything happens for a reason. One day I received an inquiry from a bride who was looking for a wedding photographer. Her original wedding photographer was pregnant and due right around the time of her wedding which is amazing for her photographer but also a little nerve wrecking as a bride. (Baby ended up being born 3 days before the wedding day and is doing great!) When Amy and I first chatted over the phone about her Barns at Hamilton Station Virginia Wedding, I got off the phone thinking “Wow Amy is so bubbly and full of personality.”
Fast forward, Amy and Brandon booked me for their Barns at Hamilton Station Virginia Wedding. I was greeted with a ginormous hug from Amy and was surprised how tall she is!! Amy and Brandon’s wedding day was such a gorgeous fall day in Virginia filled with joy, laughter, and happy tears. They are such a beautiful couple, inside and out and such a joy to be around. Another one of my life philosophies is that you should always surround yourself with positive people and that’s exactly how Amy and Brandon are. I hope I get to see this happy couple again soon. Thank you both, from the bottom of my heart, for choosing me and trusting me with capturing your special day!
Enjoy a few of my favorite images from this Leesburg wedding.
