What an interesting day this was; I was called in by another photographer who was supposed to photograph a proposal, but due to the time getting pushed back last minute, he was unable to do so. Within minutes of being contacted I rushed to get to the city and as I was parking I get a text that says "we're walking up". I managed to get into position and within 30 seconds of opening my camera bag they walked up and it happened- and it was captured- one of the happiest and most

Javitta & Robert celebrated their 15th anniversary by enjoying a relaxed day and scheduling a portrait session since their photos were not the best back when they got married. little did she know that Robert had planned a surprise vow renewal ceremony for her with family at the The Boathouse at Sunday Park, and that the session was mostly a cover up for getting her there. During their 'outfit change' family and friends poured into the reception hall and when Javitta came out

Kilts, bagpipes, Irish coffee, and love; what a great way to end 2014! Don't let those sunny photos fool you, it was cold- and the bride and groom took it like champs. We started very early in the morning as the whole celebration ended at 3pm. St Paul's Episcopal church was beautiful, though very strict on photography (we were confined to the balcony only, and not allowed to move!). We walked over to the capitol for some quick portraits , went off too the Lee Statue on Monum

This was my very first experience with a Vietnamese wedding! Let's just say it was VERY different from what I'm used to. The ceremony was in the comfort of their own home and the reception was at the Richmond Marriot West. Everybody had a great time and the groomsmen were absolutely wild (check out that last pic!). Here are a few shots #2014 #bridalsession #brideandgroomportraits #canon5dmarkiii #canon6d #marekkphotography #richmondengagementphotographers #richmondvaweddingph

Oh how I love using lighting! We took a dark stairwell and made these dramatic portraits in about five minutes! #weddingphotographyblogrichmondva #richmondvaweddingphotographyblog #richmondweddingphotographyblog #therenaissancerichmondvawedding #bridalsession #2014 #brideandgroomportraits #marekkphotography #nikkor2470 #nikond750 #richmondva #richmondvirginia #richmondweddingphotographer #richmondweddingphotography #sb700 #strobistbridals #strobistweddingportrait #virginiawed

I had the opportunity to do a few portraits for my wonderful friend Lauren Rogers (now, Lauren Parker), who is one of our area's most prominent wedding photographers. She looks incredible in her dress! And her husband, David, I guess he looks ok too ;]. We got to play around a bit and do a combination of natural light photos and a few flash photos to add some drama, and you can clearly see the difference between the two styles here. I like both, and this is a great demonstrat

Though it rained most of the wedding day, it stopped towards the end leaving a dramatic sky that I had to capture. #weddingphotographyblogrichmondva #richmondvaweddingphotographyblog #richmondweddingphotographyblog #strobistweddingportrait #dramaticsky #brideandgroomportraits #canon6d #marekkphotography #richmondvirginia #richmondweddingphotographer #richmondweddingphotography #weddingphotographerrichmond #weddingphotographer #virginiaweddingphotogrpaher #strobistbridals
