A Fall wedding at Taylors Mill

Happy anniversary to Hayley and Josh!  Dating anniversary that is!  They began dating on October 7th three years ago.  When they started wedding planning and realized their anniversary was on a weekend AND Southern Bleachery was available they signed the dotted line for a wedding on Sunday, October 7!!  What a fun date and story to always reminisce with!

Josh and Hayley wanted to do a First Look which gave them a chance to spend time together before guests arrived for the ceremony.  A lot of times couples ask if a First Look takes away the feelings and emotions of walking down the aisle.  To answer, Josh and Hayley were teary-eyed for BOTH the First Look and the aisle!  Their time together before the ceremony allowed them to calm their nerves and soak in the moments even more!

Hayley and Josh have been such a joy to serve through their wedding experience!  I’ve been anticipating their big day since the moment I knew they were dating!  I’m so glad they chose me and trusted me, even at 37 weeks pregnant, to capture their memories!  I couldn’t have done it without the help of my team, Jill and Ashley!

Ready for their first look???

Who else is in love with this color scheme!?!?

The cutest little flower girl ever!

Josh’s father passed away when Josh was only 18 months old.  When Josh seated his mother for the ceremony he saw this special memorial in the front row.

When you finish all family portraits and the light is perfect, you run outside for bonus pictures before you are introduced into your reception.  This is the magic of a First Look.  Time together.  Flexibility.  Memories.

Two couples I have LOVED photographing this year!  There was one more JWP couple there, but I missed them for the picture!!  Remember Michael and Katie’s Virginia wedding?
