Catherine and Eddie are recent graduates of William & Mary. I first met Catherine and Eddie at their wedding consult at a Starbucks near the Peninsula Town Center. After a few minutes of talking, we hit it off and by the time we all left, it felt like I was talking to old time friends!

Their wedding day came, and I swear it felt like it was just the other day we were talking details about the wedding. My partner in crime that day was Nicole of Nicole Jean Photography, and we drove up to Charlottesville that morning. The drive alone was amazing, as I am always in awe of the mountains. As crazy as it sounds, this beach bum would take the mountains over the beach any day! It was rather hot that day, however, everyone remained as cool as they could and had the time of their lives!

Thank you Catherine and Eddie for allowing me and my right hand gal, Nicole for being there to capture your special day!

In the words of Taylor Swift, today was a fairytale. And I have to say, Katie and Jay's wedding day was definitely a fairytale. Katie looked stunning in her dress, and Jay looked dapper in his tux. However, Mother Nature tried to have her way that day. Days prior to everyone arriving to Bernard's Landing Resort, we all received an email from Katie that the entire wedding day was being shifted due to the pending storms set to roll in later the day of the wedding.

The next day went off without a hitch. The girls gathered in the Matron of Honor's suite for hair, makeup and mimosas, and the guys gathered in the Best Man's suite for some grooming, shots and laughs. We nearly got away from the rain and the crazy storms, but it eventually rolled in. But did it stop everyone from partying? Heck no! Most of the guests that were staying on the property went back to their condos, changed into comfy clothes and continued to party through the rest of the night!

Katie & Jay, thank you so much for allowing me to photograph your special day. And thank you to Jamey of Jamey Brown Photography for second shooting with me! You definitely kept the guys in check for me and Katie!
