It's Halloween and what could be more fun this time of year than an engagement shoot in a Pumpkin Patch!? We can't take credit for this brilliant idea, it's was our bride Mary's and we love it so much when someone drops a fresh idea right into our lap! Thank you to the people at Maple Lane Farms for letting us use your beautiful place!!  Here are some of our favorite shots from Mary and Dave's engagement shoot!!

I also like this one, which is similar to one above --- maybe better than the last.. it's a little softer.

We loved this wedding!! It belongs to Jessica and Laurence who had a beautiful wedding & reception at The Mill at Fine Creek in Powhatan, Virginia (near Richmond). Although they had to change the location of their ceremony due to rain, I really couldn't think of anything more perfect ---- it was a cozy, fall, candlelit ceremony surrounded by all of their friends and family... And I really can't say enough about Jess and Laurence - they were both so nice and accommodating --- we 're so fortunate to have been a part of their lovely day!!

Some of our favorites!! For some reason Dan and I love the hair on the right: 
My prediction for this couple if they decide to have kids: BEAUTIFUL THICK BROWN HAIR!! --- the eye color will be a toss up as you'll see what we mean in a sec....

Three things right off the bat that I loved about this wedding 1- the guys' grey tuxes, 2 - the flowers and, 3 - she had this whole fall, bird theme going on....loved it!!

Jess Sloan doubles-5web.jpg
Love this!

laurence_jess_w0638web.jpg
As I was saying, the eyes could be really brown like Laurence or Jess's pretty aqua color - hmm... And, notice the picture of her grandmother attached to her bouquet - so sweet.

Jess wore these cowboy boots under her dress!

Oops, going a little out of order here...

Even though the ceremony was moved from outdoors to indoors, it was very intimate and cozy -- it was almost just candle-lit -- very dark but it suited the weather...

Jess Sloan doubles-17web.jpg
I love the one on the right :)

Jessica and Laurence escaped the crowd right after the ceremony for a few intimate portraits on the porch of this little cabin. It was really pouring at this point but it made it fun!!  Especially for me an Dan, we love a good photo challenge!

Mmmm, so sweet ---

I love how he has his hand on her shoulder in the photo on the right. Hair piece on left came from Etsy --- she got a ton of stuff from there, including this super cute bird house she gave us -- I'd snap a photo but it's pouring rain right now :(.

Jess reads our blog regularly so after they did this she said, "Did you think we were going to be cake smashers," -- cute, right!? I said yes but really I wasn't 100% sure --- I would have bet $ on it though...

Bottom right: Guests wrote messages on different squares of fabric (all bird themed) that she is going to make into a quit  --- yes, she's very crafty!
