Amy and Brandon
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.”
Wedding Day
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!
