Dereck & Jessica | Rappahannock Cellars, Virginia Vineyard Wedding Photographer

What thought to be a rainy day turned out to be a sunny and bright Saturday! … and thank goodness! I can only imagine having an outdoor ceremony and having to worry about rain. It worked out to be gorgeous! I can say that I absolutely fell in love with this wedding because of the style/theme starting with my favorite flower (peony) to the atmosphere of a winery and the style of rustic-chic! Loved everything from start to finish … including Jessica’s dress! Perfection!

Here is a preview of their oh so special day that I have been dying to share with you all! šŸ™‚ Enjoy! Thank you so much Dereck and Jessica for such an amazing time from your engagement session to your special day! xoxo
