Joriana and I are a mother-daughter photographer team who love photographing weddings — especially at Airlie Center. We photographed Marcus and Marie’s wedding. there and also Kim and Jeff’s wedding, too.

Each of us love wedding photography — and most especially when we are able to photograph in a photojournalist style with plenty of emotion in a beautiful location in Virginia.

Photojournalism in wedding photography is an art — capturing the peak of emotion, along with vivid colors, gorgeous fashion and lots style takes skill and dedication. Noelle and Van’s’ wedding is the type of wedding that a wedding photojournalist longs for. Beautiful and elegant surroundings and true love to document . . . what more can a wedding photographer ask for?

Van and Noelle were elegantly wed last weekend as friends and family looked on with love. These two are definitely a match for each other! Our bride, Noelle, is such a beauty — we had the awesome privilege of getting some wonderful bride and groom time for images. These two aren’t a cookie cutter bride and groom, so they dispensed with those old traditions and saw each other before the wedding in a special, emotional and intimate moment. We weren’t close enough to hear, but it looked to us as though Van looked his bride up and down and told her how magnificent she looked — and she seriously did! How lovely for us to see a bride break with the strapless dress that the majority of brides seem to be wearing! We felt this style suited Noelle to a T.

Van and Noelle struck us as individuals with a unique style all their own from the first time we met them — we love all of the personal touches this wedding had, from the butterflies represented on the cake, the favor (the cutest cookie cutter tin we EVER saw) and even butterfly lollipops for the guests! With a fun, casual and relaxed atmosphere, we enjoyed every minute to this unique and fun filled wedding — and hats off to Vicki for wedding planning that helped everything stay on track.

One of Noelle’s favorite types of music is Reggae — ours, too! So we incorporated that Reggae theme into her slideshow — we love it when brides show their individuality and applaud it whenever we see it. Most of all, we love how happy Noelle and Van looked together — from their bride and groom images right on through to their first dance. Van had that look on his face — the one that says: I just married the girl of my dreams!
