There are a lot of good things about living in the South. Virginia is home to some pretty great historical sites, traditions, and, of course, people. So what’s better than a Virginia wedding? A Virginia+Georgia wedding! Katie and Daniel’s friends and families came from all over to a central place—Virginia Tech, the campus where they met and fell in love—and the couple treated them to a great day filled with Southern hospitality.

Virginia+Georgia details abounded and of course the Southern food was delicious. Country music got the crowd out on the dance floor and it stayed full all night—those are the kind of receptions that are great to shoot, let me tell you! Looking through this gallery, I’m sure you’ll see what I got to experience that day: the love that Katie and Daniel have for each other and how beautifully they spread that to everyone around them. Enjoy some of my favorite images from their July 4^th wedding! And a special guten tag to the newlyweds over in Germany!

I loved that Daniel and Katie did their first look where they got engaged!

Daniel’s smile was contagious!!

Such a good looking couple! I am so excited they planned time for portraits on Virginia Tech’s campus!

For July 4th the heat wasn’t awful and it was fabulous to have the place to ourselves!

Gorgeous— love this!

The back of Katie’s wedding dress was so romantic…

Oh these two!

Burruss Hall never looked so good!!

You may recognize this look from the Bridesmaids movie– love how sassy these fun girls are!

Off to the chapel!

Such sweethearts, so happy to be married!!

 They celebrated their reception at German Club and I was beyond impressed with how pretty it was!

Loved the cute pom-poms Katie and her family made

Absolutely adore the decorations! Friends and family rallied together and helped Katie with these projects to pull off a beautiful wedding

I could’t have done this wedding without the help of Marissa with Bella Muse! She was an awesome second shooter!! Her ring shot on the left is epic.

Nothing better than sunset photos!!
