Lauri & Russ' Wedding

Posted Saturday, October 18, 2008 in Wedding Photography

When Lauri first contacted me about shooting her wedding, she claimed that it would be held in one of the most picturesque settings she'd ever seen.

She was totally right; it was beautiful. The small (and I mean small!) wedding was held outdoors at the Goodstone Inn & Estate in Middleburg, Virginia. The weather reports that week made us nervous, but it turned out to be a gorgeous day.

Here are a few of my favorite shots. This first one shows the entire wedding and shows our fantastic backdrop.

After the ceremony, we walked around the area for a while and took some great, casual and fun portraits.

I know this is kind of a weird shot to end this blog post on, but I love it. Lauri's little niece kept giving her handfuls of gravel to which Lauri would be surprised and grateful, as you can see. I thought it was really cute.

Lauri & Russ: thanks for having me and congrats!

Nice shots! It really captures the whole Middleburg farm-country feel. I love the gravel shot, too. I'm sure years down the road the bride will smile every time she looks at it.

Russ and I are thrilled with these photos, Ben! You captured the feel of our wedding so well and were wonderful to work with. Now we're really excited to see the rest. Thanks again, Ben! -Lauri
