A Beautiful Spring Waterside Wedding in Norfolk, VA

~ Brittney & David | Wedding ~

The Harbor Club | Norfolk, Virginia | May 10, 2025

Brittney & David (Acner) had a beautiful wedding day at the Harbor Club at Waterside District in Norfolk, VA. David is from Honduras and unfortunately, most of his family are still living there and were unable to attend the wedding, but David’s friends and State-side family made sure he felt celebrated and supported. Brittney’s friends and family all came in from out of town and brought the party! They had a beautiful, warm spring day with gorgeous sun. Their dusty blues and creme colors were absoultely stunning for the day, and they had a gorgeous view of the harbor from their ceremony site.

Brittney did a first look with her dad, uncle, brother and son, Leo. Leo was the CUTEST Ring Bearer EVER! They passed out Jello Shots before the wedding party walked the aisle and that was just the kick off of their party. David beamed at Brittney as she and her dad walked down the aisle. After they exchanged their vows and their rings, Brittney, David, and I ventured around Waterside District for portraits and I am OBSESSED with how gorgeous these came out!

The reception was truly a blast! They shared their first dance, we had a delicious dinner, and the dance floor was open! Guests partied HARD and danced the night away! I LOVED that after cake cutting, not oly were desserts available, but “drunk snacks” like chicken & cheeseburger sliders and pizza were out for the guests to enjoy as well. Before departing and walking the aisle for their sparkler send off, they took a few minutes and danced to a slow song, all by themselves.

A Cute & Casual Engagement Session at Pleasure House Point – Virginia Beach,VA

~ Clarissa & Santes | Engaged ~

Pleasure House Point | Virginia Beach, Virginia Beach | May 20, 2025

Clarissa & Santes have never had photos taken together before and we couldnt have had a more perfect morning for it. We managed to beat the heat and enjoy the beautiful morning around Pleasure House Point. I LOVED Clarissa’s Top, it was so cute and the way Santes looked at her says it all! They are getting married in October this year and I cannot wait to see their wedding vision come to life.

These two met while both of them were worrking. Clarissa works at a preschool, and one day Santes was working at the preschool doing the landscaping work. It was still hot outside and Clarissa felt bad that he was working out in the heat. She decided to take him some water to drink and they hit it off! They both had never been in love before but they just knew they were perefect for each other. Santes proposed 6 months after their first date on a cozy day in on Saturday. They spent the day cuddled up watching movies and before Clarissa went to leave, he stopped her and was on one knee!

A Botanical and Beachy Engagement Session in Norfolk and Virginia Beach, VA

~ Tracy & Michael | Engaged ~

Norfolk Botanical Gardens | Norfolk, Virginia & First Landing State Park | Virginia Beach, Virginia
| May 3, 2025 |

Tracy and Michael are so adorable! They are having 2 wedding ceremonies this October! They are honoring Tracy’s Chinese culture and having a traditional Tea Ceremony and then a few days later they are having a small brunch wedding aboard the Spirit of Norfolk! We had a great time wandering through the botanical gardens and strolling on the beach. I loved their energy and how they always seemed to make each other laugh.

Tracy and Michael met in the spring of 2008 at work. They connected over anime and started as friends, drifted apart for a little, but they eventually found their way back to each other as friends again. Their friendship became more when Michael asked Tracy out after they went to see a showing of Warm Bodies in 2013.  Their first date and first kiss was at the Macaroni Grill.  They are each other’s best friend, connecting over a shared love of cats, fantasy, Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars.  Michael introduced Tracy to Magic: The Gathering, Pathfinder, and D&D.  Tracy introduced Michael to going on cruises, Dune, and a bunch of interesting movies and shows she keeps borrowing from the library. 

After 10 years of dating and adventures together, Michael finally popped the question after their anniversary brunch at the Sweetwater Cuisine. Michael was trying to find the “right” moment to propose.  It wasn’t until they got back to his truck, and he was so nervous, he could not get the question out and could only open the ring box.  Tracy was surprised, could not get her answer out, but answered with a kiss! How cute!?

A Sunny Morning Engagement Session at Corporate Landing Park in Virgina Beach, VA

~ Jessica & D’Juan | Engaged ~

Corporate Landing Park | Virginia Beach, Virginia | April 6, 2025

I met up with Jessica and D’Juan on a lovely spring morning with a gentle breeze making it a little extra romantic at Cororate Landing Park. They are getting married this September at the Neon House in Norfolk. I couldnt be more excited for them. I had so much fun learning about them and their wedding day plans. Shout out to D’Juan who assumed the role as wedding planner! (We love an involved Groom!) I am obsessed with the pops of green palms, tall towering pines and how these two make this look like a movie.

They have been together for almost 10 years but it all began at the bar at Bungalows and a football game. That night, they bonded over touchdowns and bar food. As the night continued, they exchanged socials and the conversation continued. They became inseparable and became each others best friends (and favorite pains in the butt). They eventually moved in together and share laughs together daily. They even up and moved from the big city to the salt life to build a life they love! He proposed right after Christmas 2021 at the same bar they met at all those years back during the Dallas vs. Washington game. They are very excited to FINALLY tie the knot this September with all their friends and family!

Studio Muse Norfolk | Norfolk, Virginia | April 22, 2025

So excited to be sharing these photos from Britteny’s Bridal Boudoir session from a few months back. The wedding has taken place and the groom has been surprised so I am free to share all my favorites with you! Brittney has never had a boudoir session done before, but she totally exuded confidence! We had so much fun chatting about our kiddos and all her wedding plans. She is so beautiful and i loved her sense of humor. Brittney pulled her best lingerie and with each outfit got more and more radiant. She is so pretty yall!! I had such a hard time picking favorites because I loved so many. My all inclusive wedding package includes a boudoir session, but you can also add it on to any of my other wedding and elopement packages!
