Spruce Knob Lake Elopement Photographer | West Virginia Elopement Photographer
Lacy and Ron met many years prior while working at a restaurant together. They built together as she became a beauty queen and a nurse. Finally life slowed down enough that they could tie the knot and what a fun day we had doing so.
We ventured down to Spruce Knob Lake first and grabbed some family photos as we tried to keep an eye on the storm that decided to roll through the same day. Eventually we made our way up to the top of Spruce Knob and got to catch the last hour of the storm that was rolling through. Which gave us the most stunning sunset view as we watched the mist rise back into the sky as Lacy and Ron said their vows. After that we used the remaining light to get some mountain top pictures and the sky opened up perfectly to get some early star photos as well. Which we took full advantage of.
If you would like to have Lacy aka Mrs West Virginia America 2025 be your pageant coach you can hire her here: Empowered Pageant Coaching
Smoke Hole Resort Wedding Photographer | West Virginia Wedding Photographer | Seneca Rocks, WV Wedding Photographer
Emma and Mason’s September wedding at Smoke Hole Resort in Cabins, West Virginia which is just right down the road from Seneca Rocks and Smoke Hole Caverns was the definition of a fun time!!
Their friends and family surrounded them in love. Grandma knocked it out of the park by making their favorite cheesecake for their wedding cake.
Their families pitched in and helped turn a great view at a lovely place into a stunning time. The decor was on point, the people were most lovely, the food was tasty, even an inflatable screen and video games as a group activity made their appearance as well. The sun was strong, the vibes were vibing, and we all had a blast celebrating the love of these two amazing humans who met as childhood friends that reconnected with age.
