Chiantia & Tim – Virginia Wedding/Engagement Photographer

I love to play with light…I love the way it turns warm yellow and glows through someones hair or through the whispy topped grasses of a summer meadow. I love the way it shapes a profile, and fuels a soft touch. This session is a perfect example of why I love light. It is also now my favorite engagement session to date.

I got to know Chiantia and Tim pretty well over the last few months while planning for their wedding in August. We had originally planned to do this session at the Cherry Blossoms in DC, but the weather just didn’t cooperate with us or our schedules this year…so what is the next best thing?? A warm sunny meadow at one of my favorite Fredericksburg, Va Battlefields. This field inspired me beyond belief last weekend…and Chiantia and Tim just made it absolutely perfect.

I can’t WAIT for the wedding!

laverne carr - breath-taking!!! Your work is so spirited. You capture a subjects very soul. The setting was perfect, although you all had to reschedule previously. Your subjects look as though they are the only two people in the world!!!

Mr. & Mrs.Scott - We commend your artistic and heart felt work. The way you’ve captured the very essence of love and life through a picture, for a picture is worth a million words, but in this case we’re in awe. These two make a great couple with the glow of God surrounding them. After taking these pictures MARTA your camera and business will never be the same. Expect bigger and greater things…. My lil brother is getting married to a special lady that has grown and became not just my sister in law to be but my real sister in my eyes. We love you Tim & Chiantia.
