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.

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,

Romantic Wedding at West Manor Estate - Virginia Wedding Photographer - Erin & Devon

I first met Erin in 2010, when she became my next door neighbor. I had just had my son and that was the same year I started photography professionally. Soon enough, Erin and her twin sister, became my models. Being there to photograph Erin & Devon’s wedding was a lot more than just being their wedding photographer, I was a family member.

Their wedding was supposed to take place in 2018, but unfortunately a very terrible accident happened in their family so they had to postpone. It made their relationship stronger and make them aware of how fragile life can be, making them enjoy every moment with their loved ones even more.

Their day went by so beautifully, full of emotions, at West Manor Estate. The groomsmen all elegant and tight in their tuxedos and the bridesmaids gorgeous in their mismatched silver sage, dusty blue and burgundy dresses. The cake was a cappuccino flavor, Devon’s favorite flavor!
