Kelly + Elliott | Couple Session

What better way to spend a snow day than to do a photo shoot?  This past Saturday VA was hit hard with LOTS of snow, so Kurt + I snapped a couple of shots of my sister + her boyfriend, Elliott.  We weren’t out in the snow long, as it was a bit frigid + my makeshift weather gear (zip lock bag) for my camera wasn’t holding up that long.  Enjoy some fun shots! :)

December 21, 2009 - 10:23 pm Sasha Rothwell - Aww....they're so cute!!! :) They look so happy together!

Heather + Fred | Wedding

Heather + Fred are absolutely the cutest +  sweetest couple ever! Kurt + I were so honored to work with them last Saturday at Sweely Estate Winery in Madison, VA.  Words can’t express how beautiful their ceremony was! They had incorporated a praise band into the ceremony, comprised of their friends from their home church.  The worship set was so powerful + beautiful to hear.  And…their first kiss was at the altar, so it was definitely a momentous occasion! This post is a little bit longer than normal, but it was so hard to narrow down which ones to post! Enjoy! :)

Heather + Fred:  Your love for each other + the Lord is so inspiring + beautiful! May you be richly blessed in your marriage!

December 31, 2009 - 6:46 pm Jodi - Thanks Stephanie and Abby for commenting! You'll definitely be considered for the giveaway. :) Stephanie, if you have a specific date in mind for your wedding, let me know! I have only a few available dates remaining for 2010.

December 31, 2009 - 2:37 pm Stephanie Crick - Hey Jodi! Not sure if you remember me or not, I used to work with Kelly at Comfort Inn. My boyfriend and I got engaged in August, and I would love to have engagement photos done. I saw this contest and got pretty excited! I love your work and I look at your photo's every time you post something new! I'm just trying to figure out the date for our wedding so that I can contact you with more information about shooting our wedding! Have a great one! Oh and I love the pictures you did of Kelly and Elliot in the snow! They were absolutely gorgeous! Have a great day!!

December 31, 2009 - 8:28 am Abby Bare - Hi Jody I had spoken with you earlier about my recent engagement and the possibility of doing out wedding on August 7, 2010. Zack and I are still in the early stages of planning our wedding as we are still trying to get the big decisions nailed down but we would love to be considered for this opportunity to work with you and Kurt. It sounds like the possibilities are endless and I know with your creative touch this would really be a treat for Zack and I!

December 13, 2009 - 9:12 pm Stephanie Noble - This is a truly inspired idea! :) I know my fiance, Ches, and I have only gotten to meet you briefly as we have started planning our wedding, but I can't wait for you to capture all of our beautiful memories next June! Where I feel like we both fit the description you listed above - most of all, Ches & I just enjoy having fun together. I'm not sure we ever set out to be anything more than "big kids at heart" when we're together. In the time that we've been dating, I have enjoyed every bit of the journey and discovery of finding that perfect complement. What a great way to document part of that journey...we're excited to be considered and can't wait to work with you & Kurt!
