Amy & Andy Part 2 | Blacksburg, VA Wedding Photographer

After the ceremony and a few photos at the gardens we headed over to one of our favorite Tech spots, the Eggleston Tunnel. Between the Hokie stone and the arches, the small tunnel is always a great place for interesting lines, great light and some fantastic photos.

A little ring action by the cake. The cake table was covered with daisies (as you can see in the background) and the toss bouquet – which is what the rings are on. I love the details on both of their rings. Pretty awesome.

Amy & Andy’s yorkie, Oliver is adorable. He was enjoying all the attention he was getting.

Amy & Andy Part 1 | Blacksburg, VA Wedding Photographer

We are blown away by how simply beautiful Amy & Andy’s wedding was that it seriously was hard to narrow down the photos we wanted to use for the blog post.

Amy leaving her house. She was so calm and so sure.

Meanwhile, Andy was at the hotel getting ready with the guys.

How handsome! We love Hokie stone. It has such great texture and color that everytime we shoot on Tech’s campus we have to utilize the Hokie stone. This one was in front of Lane Stadium.

Amy looked so classic and elegant. One of my favorite moments at weddings is not just the moment when the dress goes on, but when the veil is put on. It transforms the outfit from just a dress, to a wedding dress! That is how I felt at my own wedding and is something I often see in other brides.

The ceremony took place at Virginia Tech’s Hahn Horticulture Garden. It is such a magical and serene place. Look at that sky! Barely a cloud in sight.

Introducing Karly | Radford, VA Baby Photographer

Karlyle Jean. Don’t you just love the Southern charm that has.

This little girl is such a fighter. A week after coming home she was rushed the ER and spend over four weeks in the hospital. She fought her illness like a champ and we are so happy to say she is doing great! We are going to do a baby session with them in the near future but were able to get some newborn shots from visiting her in the hospital on her birthday.

Karly’s big sister is Abby. Abby is 2 1/2 and absolutely loves her little sister to bits. She was very proud to show Karly off to us.

We can’t wait to see Karly and her family again. I know she has gotten so big already.

My favorite. Look at her perfect nose. So adorable.:)
