FREDERICKSBURG, VA WEDDING | RICHARD AND JENNIFER

Wedding Sneak preview! A beautiful December wedding ceremony and reception for Richard and Jennifer this past Saturday in Fredericksburg, VA. The groom surprised his bride with a beautiful love song - and an amazing voice. The couple are singers and musicians so their music-centered ceremony, with a live band, was well suited, and very thoughtfully planned. The bridal party and guests enjoyed a simply elegant ceremony and reception, with laughter, dancing, toasts, a gorgeous and delicious cake, and a fun photobooth experience.

For this wedding we created a set up with wireless off-camera lighting to add a nice edge during the ceremony and reception. Our technique for this indoor wedding included a combination of ambient light only, on-camera flash + ambient, and off-camera flash lighting. Not all ceremonies are suited for this type of set up, but this one was. We loved using this unobtrusive and powerful technique for this sweet wedding.

Here's a lighting diagram for this wedding ceremony:

WENDY AND BRANDON | FREDERICKSBURG ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY

A few years ago we photographed Brandon's brother's wedding (Richard and Krista) at Belmont in Fredericksburg. It really was a beautiful wedding and we just enjoyed capturing their day and getting to know their sweet family. We felt like we were among our own family. Months ago, Richard's brother Brandon and his fiancee Wendy asked us to photograph their wedding. We are very honored they asked us, and we are so looking forward to the capturing more beautiful memories for them and their families! Their engagement session was relaxed and fun, Wendy and Brandon are so enjoyable to spend time with, they so excited to be getting married, it's such a joy!
