Adventures in ParaDyess: The Road to Hana - Maui
Apparently the one thing you HAVE to do in Maui is drive the Road to Hana. It’s this super narrow, twisty, windy road through the mountains and along the coast of east Maui that leads to a town called Hana. The reason you have to do it isn’t because Hana is this super awesome, hopping town. It’s for the adventure of getting there. Hana Highway is 52 miles from Kahului to Hana with 620 curves and 59 one lane bridges. Talk about car sickness waiting to happen.
Mr. and Mrs. Scott | Oak Creek Farm Summer Wedding
Kesley and Ryan’s summer wedding at Oak Creek Farm had it all. Tears, lots of laughs, memorable moments, and a beautiful Virginia sunset. Their day was beautiful inside and out and I’m so happy to share it with you.
Mr. and Mrs. Hill | Barns of Madison County Summer Wedding
Austin and Hannah’s wedding at the stunning Barns of Madison County was so special and memorable! This was my first wedding ever where the ceremony had to stop after it started because it was DUMPING rain.
Adventures in ParaDyess: Maui, Hawaii
My husband and I finally made it to a place I’ve been dreaming of going pretty much forever. I mean, can you really look at a picture of Hawaii and not want to go? We spent two weeks in one of the most beautiful places on the planet. And if you’re wondering, yes, it really is as beautiful in person as it is in pictures.
Mr. and Mrs. Gelles | Northern Virginia Farm Wedding
Tyler and Annie got married at the stunning and historic Sunnyside Farm in Hamilton, Virginia. The weather was perfect for an early October wedding. Thankfully we were blessed with a beautiful overcast day and not a single drop of rain!! It was an emotional and fun day all around. I loved how thoughtful Annie’s details were to her. She incorporated many family heirlooms and things her mother had given her, which made it extra special.
Mr. and Mrs. Leis | Central Virginia Farm Wedding
Austin and Sami’s central Virginia barn wedding was emotional (and fun!) from start to finish. Their family and bridal party welcomed me like I was one of their own from the very beginning.
Kody + Kate | Fourth of July Virginia Farm Wedding
Kody and Kate got married on the Fourth of July at the beautiful Layz S Ranch in central Virginia. These two and their entire bridal party were total troopers as we toughed out 90+ degree heat and direct sun to capture all of these amazing pictures. The day also included a father-daughter dance that started out with playing catch, surprise confetti cannons courtesy of the groomsmen, and Kate surprising Kody with Signature DJs’ awesome “Sparktacular Impact” exit
2019 Year End Wrap Up
Y’all, 2019 has been so good to us. I “officially” started my business, shot four of my own weddings, second shot another three, and so many more things I will talk about here in a second.
If you don’t know me personally yet, you probably don’t know that I’m a serious numbers person. I’m talking I LOVE numbers. So here is a year-end wrap up in numbers:
Troy + Emma | Mountain Top Vermont Wedding
Emma and Troy’s mountain top wedding day was absolutely perfect. Set in the mountains of Vermont on Emma’s family’s Christmas tree farm, the setting could not have been more beautiful. Every detail was meticulously planned, everything was executed without a hitch, and most importantly, Emma and Troy are MARRIED after 9 years (!!) of dating.
