Chris and Claudia- Leesburg VA Wedding Photographer

I have been swooning over these images all. week. long. Yes thats right, I said swooning. I would come across an image that would literally stop me in my tracks and make me just sit and stare and think to myself “gosh I hope one day someone looks at me like THAT!” … or “ah I wish all couples laughed together as much as Claudia and Chris!” … or “man, THIS is what it should look like…” There is something extra special about these images and this couple; their joy is contagious and their love is tangible. The point of all of that? These are some of my new favorite images I’ve ever done and man oh man do they make me happy :) Chris and Claudia are getting married this June and I could not be more excited to photograph them again in a few months :) I’m already counting down!!  Chris and Claudia, I’m honored you chose me to be your photographer, and thank you THANK YOU for letting me show the world what joy-filled, Christ-centered love looks like. Couples like you are why I’m so darn thankful for this job of mine :) Happy viewing, friends!

This was one of the first images I took, and it makes me smile every time I see it: this picture makes me so happy. SO very happy :) I love how she’s looking at Chris out of the corner of her eye :) I know these next two are similar, but I just couldn’t pick which one I loved more, so you get both! :) Doesn’t Claudia have the most STUNNING smile?! :) I have no idea what was so funny, but I hope every couple laughs like this together: after Chris was a pro at dipping Claudia, she thought she deserved a try to dip HIM! it might not have been quiiiiite as successful, but A+ for effort, Claudia ;) LOVE:

Happy Friday! Have a great weekend! :)
