July 5, 2017
Emily and Stephen met at Longwood University. Well really, their love story runs a little bit deeper than that.
Emily was working at her family store + in walks Stephen. Long story short, Emily got his phone number (but not by her own doing) and the rest is history!
I’ve known Emily for at least 11 years. We went to the same High School and followed each other to Longwood University! I can honestly say I’ve never seen Emily happier than the day she said I Do to Stephen!
Their wedding day was the perfect (maybe a tad bit hot) Saturday in July, but they couldn’t have asked for a better breeze or people to celebrate with! Stephen + Emily, we wish you nothing but the best + we can’t wait to see what the future holds for you guys!!!
How gorgeous is her ring?!
Emily was nothing but smiles while reading Stephen’s letter!
The Daddy/Daughter First Look was adorable!
These ladies!! They were a complete blast to work with!
We love capturing the reading of letters between the Bride + Groom on the wedding day!
The handsome groom!
Such a gorgeous spot to get married!
Can you believe Emily and her friends + family DIY’d almost every aspect of their wedding including these super cute table decorations!
I absolutely LOVE when Grooms show emotion when they see their Bride for the first time! Stephen’s reaction was so incredibly sweet!!!
When you ride in on your Grandfather’s tractor!
One of my favorite giving away pictures to date!
So sweet!
The new Mr + Mrs!
When you’re floating on air because you’re so excited your finally MARRIED!
LOVED working with this bridal party!
Popsicle Hour instead of Cocktail Hour? Yes, please!
No wonder the place is called The Oaks!!
Emily, you are gorgeous!
One of my favorites!
Daddy Daughter Dance that had everyone smiling!
Look how happy these two are!
When forehead kisses are “your thing”!
These two!
This is why golden hour is my favorite time to photograph!
Hands down one of my favorite moments!
LOVE!
Rustic Weddings wouldn’t be the same without a hay bale tower!
Life is too short not to have a little fun!
How sweet is this? They wanted to go back to the place where it all started!
These ladies ROCKED Cotton Eyed Joe!
Seriously? What an incredible Grand Exit!
