Elegant Wedding at a Private Residence in Roanoke, Va - Madison & Will

This Charleston-inspired wedding in Roanoke, Virginia, will forever remain etched in my heart as a timeless celebration of love and elegance.

The fusion of Charleston charm with the natural beauty of their private estate created an environment that was nothing short of magical. A vision started by the bride and her mother and put together in an exquisite way by Caroline La Rocca.

From the moment one set foot on the picturesque private estate, it was clear that this wedding was something truly special, creating an environment that felt like a page out of a fairy tale.

I just got back from Italy and I feel restored and full of ideas! I haven’t blogged in who knows how long and the best day to post is the day you decide to post! It’s not written anywhere but I’ll stick with it! Haha

I met up with Quinn at a local coffee shop after she had contacted me about her wedding photography and immediately we knew that we were a match! It doesn’t always happen, to have that connection and to know that yes, this is the person I want to photograph our wedding.

Groom: My favorite moment of the day was finally being announced as Mr. and Mrs. Mele when we walked into the venue and everyone we love was there cheering us on with genuine happiness their faces.

Lauren & Jacob’s wedding was one of the most fun weddings I shot. They were both so laid back and easy to work with and as you can see from the images they had a blast!

Starting with their special dance walking down the aisle, to their toasts and sparkler exit, you can tell that it was a happy and fun day! And their sweet dog Alice was part of it too!

I asked them what was their favorite part from the day,
