The wonderful thing about photographing weddings, is that we get to work in an industry based around love and parties! To say that we fall in love with our wedding couples sounds like an eaggeration, but it's true! From the moment we met Shannan and Derrik at Red Robin for dinner in Newport News, we felt like old friends. That same feeling carried through to their Richmond Engagement Session, and on to the day of their wedding in Norfolk, VA.  What we didn't plan on was meeting such an amazing wedding party! These guys and girls were ready to have fun and were game for anything we suggested!  It truly made capturing the events of the day fun and when there's an atmosphere of fun... well it just makes for good pictures!

Shannan & Derrik... thank you so much for the honor of capturing your beautiful wedding day. Have fun with this sneek peek of our favorites from your special day! ;)

...A little Saturday Night Fever sprung out in the hallway!


The groomsmen gave one of the most amazing toasts we have ever heard or seen. It was off-the-hook, and complete with Powerpoint display and lucid dissertation by 4 of them. The results? Apparently, Derrik is a 'bit' competitive. ;)
