Emily and Andrew – Newport News Wedding

Scott — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 23:20:49 +0000

Emily and Andrew got their game on last week and scored! It felt like home since we knew so many guests and the atmosphere was so laid back. Andrew serenaded his bride with his guitar and smooth voice while Emily just glowed with excitement all night! We were thrilled to be there and we can’t wait to see what life has in store for these guys! We’ll be watching!

Here’s a few shots from the evening..

New York City, Times Square – Ryan & Xavia’s Aftershoot

Scott — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 22:27:13 +0000

The Big Apple is our backdrop for this shoot with Ryan & Xavia in Times Square, specifically. I would have been tickled to just photograph all the lights and glitz of 42nd street but give me an awesome bride & groom and that just kicks it up a notch! We hit the empty streets of Long Island at 2:30AM for a cruise down to Times Square to capture Broadway’s lights with a few less people in the way. The streets were empty except for a few taxis and New York’s finest so we had the whole place to ourselves. Say it with me now – Awesommmmme….. A big high five to our couple for allowing us to capture them on a shoot of a lifetime! A few pics from our 3am excursion:

Long Island New York Wedding – Ryan & Xavia

Scott — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 21:00:41 +0000

I had one of “those” days last week. Not the kind you think though. It was a big “ah-ha” moment when it occurred to me that THIS is why I love my job so. Beautiful people at a killer location that get our photography. Yeah, that’s the ticket! Ryan and Xavia tied the knot at the fabulous Chateau Briand in Long Island, New York. Where was the last time you saw a bride and groom make their entrance THROUGH the floor in a cloud of smoke. So bizzare, yet so totally cool. Our destination weddings are getting better every week and this one certainly sets the bar high for all of you bride & grooms abroad! I challenge you to find a gown to top Xavia’s ostrich feather masterpiece or Ryan’s most suave suit. Total class down to the initials on the cuff links. I have a feeling we will be seeing more of these guys on this her blog – can you say Times Square? I have a vision….

Beach Wedding Virginia – Amanda & Andy

Scott — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 20:34:25 +0000

Two of the coolest people are on tap for you today – Andy & Amanda! Pour yourself a big drink of this awesome couple and maybe, just maybe, you will be as in love with your significant other as Andy & Amanda are with each other. You catch all that? The Atlantic ocean was being nice to us and the sky was this amazing blue that slowly morphed into a glorious sunset. The pelicans even flew by for a cameo as they kissed on the lifeguard stand. Say what? Pelicans I said. The ringbearer and flowergirl were just the cutest together….I could have spent all day shooting them! Congratulations guys, welcome to the crazy world of married life.

Westin Virginia Beach Wedding – Tom and Angie

Scott — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 20:40:24 +0000

A class act is what I would call it. A very classy but unique wedding at the Westin Virginia Beach is what Angie & tom had on order a few week ago. Antonia Christianson events made sure that the guests were treated to some local treats including Doumar’s ice cream, Krispy Kreme doughnuts, and gourmet popcorn. A truly delicious combination! The flowers by Daevid’s Bridal Flowers were stunning along with the awesome lighting by Pike Media. I say all that to say this – you missed out on a whole lotta fun but we’ll try to take you on a quick tour of the day via slideshow. Enjoy!

Westin Virginia Beach Wedding – Tom & Angie

Scott — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 01:25:12 +0000

Summer in Virginia Beach can’t be beat, especially when you get to spend the most amazing day with some awesome folks like Tom & Angie! The Westin hosted both the wedding and reception and we found plenty to take pictures of thanks to some really unique ideas like a Krispy Kreme Doughnut bar, Free movie DVD’s to the guests at the popcorn bar along with the fresh Doumar’s ice cream cones (a local favorite!) A truly unique experience right down to the life size ice sculpture of a set of golf clubs. Antonia Christianson Events put everything together and the guests were treated to a fabulous party complete with a lounge, amazing lighting by Pike Media Resources, awesome cakes by Patti Cakes and flowers by the always impressive Daevid’s Bridal Flowers. We wish Tom & Angie the best as they head into the crazy world of married life!

Destination Wedding Aruba Bucuti Resort – Ryan & Leanne

Scott — Fri, 11 Jun 2010 13:20:51 +0000

Bucuti Beach resort in Aruba was the backdrop for Ryan & Leanne’s wedding last week in Aruba. A sunset on Eagle Beach is God’s little idea of perfection and they grabbed a little piece of it for themselves. All the way from the UK they winged it over to the tiny Caribbean island of Aruba for a simple but classy wedding. We spent the afternoon with them and watched the sunset dip into the Caribbean Sea. Of course some photography was on tap and Ryan & Leanne were stunning as they strolled Manchebo Beach toward a dinner on the grounds of the Bucuti Beach Resort. There are days (a whole bunch of them!) when I love being a photographer and this was one for sure! A little bit ‘o heaven in Aruba courtesy of our fav resort – Bucuti Beach!

Cheers Ryan & Leanne!

Jennifer and Cameron Got Married

Scott — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 17:39:46 +0000

A couple of cool people got married the other day in Yorktown. I like cool people so I took a few shots….then a few more. Gee, I guess we ended up staying all night at the Freight Shed in Yorktown for their wedding! A great location right on the York river with a couple of fabulous people – what more could you ask for? Congratulations, Jennifer and Cameron – you rock!

Aric & Monica

Scott — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 20:40:32 +0000

Shall we try to top Aric & Monica’s wedding? I say no! But you say, “All weddings are the same!” Nay! I rebuke thee! Aric and Monica went a step above – Not a minister but a Bishop. Not a church but an art museum. Not a veil but a birdcage veil. Not only a DJ but a Czech accordion player. Shall I go on? Just watch the slideshow and you’ll agree this was one for the books. Here’s A&M:

Josh & Tiffany

Scott — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 17:21:20 +0000

I get Tiffany and Josh. They keep it simple. Just lots of love and a few good dance moves. What more do you need, really? They put on a fabulous ceremony and reception at Ohef Sholom Temple with a “few” of their friends and family. Here’s a sneak peek into their amazing evening. Congrats guys!
