Lindsay & Joey | A Sunset Wedding | Virginia Wedding Photographer | Christina Chapman

I’ll share a secret with you, those first few moments of meeting everyone and hugging our Bride on her wedding day is the best part of the entire day for us! We get to take off our photographer hats and share in the joy and excitement that fills the air! We meet family and friends and admire all the little details that our Bride has chosen to be a part of her day! Most often some of the sweet most intimate parts of a wedding take place in the Bridal Suite. That’s where a Mother helps her daughter put on her wedding dress and where a Father hugs his little girl tightly. Being trusted to share in these private moments and preserve them for a lifetime is one of the greatest honors of our lives.

From the moment we walked into the Bridal Bungalow at Summerfield Farm we knew this was going to be an amazing day!

All of the people that Lindsay loved the most were there helping her prepare to marry the man that was made just for her. There was no shortage of love, smiles, joy or encouragement! It was clear to see how Lindsay and Joey had made their sweet relationship last through high school, college, graduate school and to their wedding day. They have spent their lives surrounded by a legacy love and profoundly strong faith. To see these two together you just know that their souls are one that this day was a beautiful chapter in their long love story.

Lindsay and Joey, thank you so much for all the trust you placed in us to capture your wedding day and for chasing the last tiny bit of sunset with us! We really loved meeting all of your family and friends! It was so much fun! We couldn’t be any happier for you both and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for you! Xoxo Christina & John
