Christina & Jeff: Wedding in Virginia

They met each other several years ago in high school in Chemistry class and were never the same. Christina would check him out in class as Jeff likes to tell the story. But we all know the truth – he was the one who couldn’t keep his eyes off of her. Right Christina?? ; ) They both come from amazing families and share similar values on love and life. It’s completely obvious that they totally adore one another and were definitely always meant to be. Christina contacted me earlier this year about shooting her wedding in Reston, Virginia… I was thrilled. From the moment I spoke with her on the phone, I had already begun to adore her! She is full of energy and life. AND she LOVES shoes – a girl after my own heart! ; )

Their wedding ceremony was held at the Wakefield Chapel in Virginia and the reception took place at the Hyatt Regency Hotel Ballroom. The following images are a few of my favorites from the day. Christina also decided to do a boudoir shoot for Jeff which will be posted on the boudoir blog soon. Boudoir is the perfect gift for your hubby to be. It’s so much fun and something you will both cherish forever.

Thank you so much Jeff and Christina for inviting me to share a part of your special day with you. I’m honored that I was able to play a small role in the event and I wish you both all the happiness in the world.

Love this moment with her mother adjusting her necklace. You can tell how excited they both are that this day has finally arrived.

I love this as they exited the chapel as Mr. and Mrs. There is no doubt they are in love.

This was one of my favorite moments of the day. Right after exiting and re-entering the back of the chapel, they started play fighting with each other about who was more nervous while reciting their own vows. It was so cute! I love how Jeff pulls Christina close at the end.

I had the honor of riding to the reception in the limo with them and was able to capture some really special moments.
