Williamsburg, Virginia

I met Eli and Gabriella on the day of their wedding, at their first look, more precisely. I was expecting a casual backyard wedding, but it was so much more. I've always loved walking by this courtyard, but most of the time, it just doesn't work. The sun isn't right or it's occupied. But this day, the courtyard was perfect for their first look. An old world waiting meeting the modern world.

First Look


It's fun to capture what unfolds. Every time I turned around, another amazing piece arrived...like Gabby's veil. I felt like I was in a magazine shoot the entire time. We could have stayed here all day catching the wind in her veil, but I'm sure the guests would not have appreciated that.
