Josh and Gabrielle’s wedding at Glencliff Manor was a classic autumn wedding with many fall elements throughout the day. Their friends and family brought the love and support while Josh and Gabrielle shared so much joy all day long. It was wonderful!

Cody & Olivia | Lynchburg Wedding Photographer

Friends, meet Cody and Olivia. They are two adorable lovebirds that met while on the track team at Liberty University. They are getting married at Glencliff Manor in just a few weeks and I am so excited about their wedding. There are a lot of reasons: they are having a first look (!!), I have a soft spot for the grounds and the people over at Glencliff Manor, and I am just seriously so, so happy for them. They are completely smitten with each other and are already on such great track for sharing a wonderful marriage together. I mean, I'm only 5 years into marriage so, really, what do I know? But… they already have weekly date nights and that is something to be admired if you ask me! :) Anyway, we had a ton of fun during their session. I laughed so much and they played along with all of my silly jokes and quirky suggestions. I love the way their pictures came out. (So much so that I ordered a duplicate sample album of their guestbook! Score!) Okay, enough rambling… meet Cody & Olivia! And get ready to see pictures of their beautiful wedding in just a few weeks!

Pierce and Sarah, pt. II | Lynchburg Wedding Photographer

These two were made for each other. As they say, opposites attract, and Pierce and Sarah are a beautiful example of this. They met and started dating six years prior to their wedding day so they have been through a lot together. Sarah loves Pierce's outgoing personality and her sweet demeanor balances perfectly with his zest for life. Together they LOVE baseball (so much so their cake topper included them wearing Red Sox jerseys!), their sweet dogs, and simply enjoying each other's company. All of this was evident at their wedding between the personal touches throughout the day and the way they enjoyed one another's company during every shared moment. Is there another word for fairytale? Because I feel like I have seriously overused it to describe this wedding. But, you guys, it truly was. The light sparkled perfectly on this couple. There was a horse and carriage... a prince and his princess... love and marriage. Just... perfection.

The rest of their wedding day story unfolds...

Pierce and Sarah, pt. I | Lynchburg Wedding Photographer

Another double wedding post coming right up! Sarah and Pierce had such a beautiful day that I cannot for the life of me narrow down their pictures! I shouldn't be surprised, though. When I first arrived at Glencliff Manor and connected with the coordinator on site there, Teresa, it was a cloudy day. I said something along the lines of "just crossing my fingers for clear sky!" Teresa immediately repsonded "Oh. This is Glencliff, it doesn't rain here. We have had one wedding rained out in 29 years." Well... I am beyond grateful at how right she was. Not only did it NOT rain at all - but the sun came through the clouds as soon as the ceremony started. It was like nature's blessing on the beautiful couple! And seriously, I follow almost all of the local photographers on some sort of social media and while they were all sharing instagrams and sneak peeks of cloudy, rainy wedding days I shared this:
