Wedding Slideshow Marriott Norfolk – Mike & Melanie

I love M&M’s they make my tummy happy. Mike & Melanie, while not being covered in a sweet candy shell, are certainly a treat to take pictures of! I am just sure that they have a warm chocolate center – I just know it! After all, how else can you explain all the joy and mirth (there’s a new word for your Scrabble game!) that followed them around on their wedding day? From the church to the Waterside Marriott it was a sweet ride! I have always thought M&M’s can cure world hunger and bring peace to the nations. It all starts with Mike & Melanie…. my favorite M&M’s of all!

Visionary Productions Wedding Video – Mike & Melanie

I think Dave Alegre over at Visionary Productions has the whole video thing down…. Well, I guess it helps when you have an awesome couple like Mike and Melanie as your subjects! He added a few images from their engagement shoot along with his video and came up with this really cool wedding fusion video. Killer job Dave as always! Thanks Mike & Melanie for dealing with all the cameras on your wedding day…it will be so worth it! Enjoy the show….

Wedding Virginia Beach Convention Center – Bryan & Charlene

The Virginia Beach Convention Center played host to a wedding and reception put on by the world-famous Bryan & Charlene.  The Fuzz Band was in full effect with their cool tunes and Daevid’s Bridal Floral and Isha Foss Events made the Convention Center simply spectacular!  It’s always great when a groom gets into the photography and Bryan certainly was along with Charlene who sported two dresses for the evening.  You guys are a class act – congrats to you both! Here’s a few of my Favorites:

The Booth! Sara & Eric’s Wedding

A little known fact – Our booth makes the coolest things happen and we get to take pictures of the whole thing! Sara & Eric gave their guests the time of their lives at their wedding with amazing food, dancing and of course the photo booth. It’s always a blast to bring the booth to any event but Sara & Eric’s wedding provided us with the most amazing personalities and we got it all on camera! Here’s a few of our favorite shots from this most “Wonderful Night”.

Sandbridge, Virginia Beach – Mitch & Caitlin Trash the Dress!

What an amazing couple that totally gets photography! They picked a cool location. Wore some fresh duds. Looked like a couple in love. What more could a photographer ask for? Um, how about a roll in the water with waves crashing all around – sure, why not? Mitch & Caitlin were up for just about anything and I am confident I could have put them in a dumpster and they would have figured out a way to make you wish you could be in a dumpster too…. It’s freakish what happened when I pointed a camera at them! Of course, it helps when we have the most perfect sunset and a backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean (secretly I thing the sun and ocean were in on the whole thing – Mitch pulled some strings.) We hung out with them at the Back Bay Nature Preserve where the spiders played nice (they were everywhere!) and the waves put on a nice show. Here’s Mitch & Caitlin and their friends, Ocean & Sun.

Beach Wedding Virginia – Amanda & Andy

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

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!

Michelle – Senior Model 2010

An adventure was in store when we met Michelle. We toured the countryside with her and took a few pictures along the way. Michelle is such a free spirit and we had a great time photographing her! Biplanes, beaches, fashion shoot in the studio – you name it and she was up for it! Michelle is another one of our 2011 Senior Models so keep an eye out for her in your school next year! Here’s Michelle:

Lester & Arlyn

I see a couple of people with a lot going for them. Their names are Lester & Arlyn and we took a few shots of them on their wedding day. It’s always cool when someone asks to to shoot their wedding but when a photographer asks you to…. that’s the cherry on top! Isha Foss events did an amazing job of jazzing up the Virginia Beach Convention Center which always makes for an easy day for the photographer. Congrats guys and here’s to 2010!
