Look for the current issue of Edible Blue Ridge, on stands now, featuring a holiday dinner with chef Tucker Yoder of the Clifton Inn! Featuring two local farmer couples and Tucker's adorable family, this was a really fun event to photograph. Thanks for including me, Edible Blue Ridge!

beyond the flavor | potter's craft cider + the most delicious cider-braised chicken!
FoodWe had such fun getting to know the guys behind Potter's Craft Cider, Dan and Tim. They were the sweetest hosts, and made us the best cider-braised chicken, duck fat potatoes, and greens. It was the perfect meal for a beautiful fall afternoon. Read their full story on Beyond the Flavor!

ginny + wes | married 09.29.12 in abingdon, va!
LifeGinny + Wes were married in Abingdon, Virginia on September 29, 2012! The sky threatened rain throughout the day, but cooperated and delivered a sunshine-filled ceremony and walk to the neighboring reception just after. Autumn had just arrived in Abingdon, kissing the trees with hints of red and orange. Ginny's grandmother graciously offered up her home - an incredible structure that functioned as a bank during the Civil War - for the reception. Guests nibbled on small bites throughout the evening, and many of them hit the dance floor for a party worthy of the very happy couple. Wes even jumped on stage to reunite with his former band, charming his new bride in the crowd below.
Ginny + Wes...we have so enjoyed getting to know you these last few months! Congratulations on your new chapter and life in Charlottesville...we want to get together for whiskey at the C+O very soon! xoxo, A+B.

october in virginia
LifeOctober is my very favorite month in Virginia. Today we took advantage of a beautiful afternoon and met friends in Afton for the Cardinal Point Oyster Roast. Afterwards, we took the long way home so that I could grab shots of the unbelievably gorgeous light and sky that I kept geeking out over. I brought only a film camera with me, but couldn't resist some instant gratification with my iphone. The shots with me in them were, obviously, taken by Brian. :)
Happy Fall!!!
martin family portraits
LifeBrian's family joined us for Thanksgiving this year, and while they were visiting we held a mini family portrait session at Veritas Vineyards. It was cold and blustery, gray and gloomy, but we still managed to have a good time playing in the vines. Perhaps it was the double flight tasting beforehand? :)
We found a backhoe. And of course, we had to climb on it. Why not?
We also found the last of the fall color...anywhere.
I snuck into the last one...
and baby makes three | charlottesville family portraits
LifeBrian and I photographed this sweet family on a crisp, Fall afternoon last week. Mark + Rebekah have been good friends for a few years now and the addition of little Lucy to their life has been a joy to be part of.
