Claudia and Dustin had a fantastic wedding, beginning their day of getting ready at the Westin in Virginia Beach where we caught up with rap star Flavor Flav and was able to get a quick photo.  Then, we headed to their ceremony site at Norfolk Naval Station’s Chapel.  From there, the PARTY began when they arrived at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens where the Patron flowed all night.  Special thanks to Valerie, at the gardens, who I’m going to miss a lot (she just took a job with another company), Barbara and crew from Style Events, for keeping things together and the wonderful food from Sweetwater Cuisine (they have incredible sweet tea!).  Congratulations you two!!

Wow…What a great time I had with Colleen, Steve and their family and friends!  Their wedding was held at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Norfolk.  From there, we stopped by Norfolk’s No. 14 fire station, where Steve works, to have a little fun and then off to Colleen’s family’s pub, Conklin’s Irish Rover, in Virginia Beach to have a couple of Guiness’ before heading to their reception, held at The Chief’s Club at Little Creek.  Below are only a few of the fun loving pictures I captured throughout the day and night.  I’ll never look at a hatchet the same after watching theirs dig into their wedding cake!;))  Enjoy the pictures!

Vicki and Chris were recently married at the (newish) St. Bede’s Catholic Church in Williamsburg and held their reception at the fantastic Ford’s Colony Country Club. The two celebrated their nuptials and danced and partied the night away with their closest family and friends. What a terrific wedding and thanks for letting me be part of it, you two. Below are some of my favorites from the day.

Alison and Max were recently married at the Virginia Beach restaurant One Fish, Two Fish, where it was all about food, family and friendship. There ceremony was beautiful, held on the restaurant’s deck, and their reception was a BLAST!! Special thanks to Michelle, of Weddings by Michelle, for helping with all the coordination. Below are some of my favorite shots from the night. Congratulations to you both!
