I first met Drew & Jesslyn at their engagement session, as I do with many couples. But the truth is, I don’t think Drew has ever met a stranger in his life! He’s one of those people who welcomes you and encourages you without a drop of hesitation. Jesslyn then comes along with her soft & sweet-natured spirit. To say that these two will impact those around them, and already have is simply a given. I can only imagine what joy their wedding day will hold!
We met up at one of my favorite places in the area, Waterperry Farm. This place is truly a secret garden in all senses…the property is outside of Charlottesville among rolling hills of the valley. As you enter the property, you’re welcomed by Katherine, the owner & dreamer behind these beautiful gardens. Her home is what southern dreams are made of, and the estate is full of beautiful gardens all with their own unique touch. I certainly won’t tire of visiting this beautiful hidden gem. And of course, it’s the perfect place for engagement sessions throughout the year.
Drew & Jesslyn, it was such a treat to spend the afternoon celebrating your engagement. I am so looking forward to your wedding this fall, it will certainly be a joyful day!
Are you getting married and want to know more? I’d love to hear from you!
I take a limited number of sessions each month (plus, I’m a bit of a planner and always account for possible weather and sick days!) I’d love to set up a time to chat with you, hear your vision and answer any questions!
