Best Wedding Photographers in Charlottesville

I feel incredibly fortunate to have captured some truly magical moments in 2024, and once again been honored as one of the best wedding photographers in Charlottesville. Thank you to all of our amazing couples and fellow vendors who have made this possible. Thank you to my team working behind the scenes in the office, and a special thank you to my wife Lisa for photographing alongside me and helping in countless ways! It's incredible to realize, 2024 marked my 20th year as a Charlottesville Wedding Photographer!!

Living and photographing weddings in Charlottesville is special. Charlottesville has stunning scenery, from rolling vineyards to breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountain views, making it a dream wedding destination. The iconic landscapes here provide the perfect backdrop for every couple’s wedding celebration, whether it's a romantic field of wildflowers or a breathtaking mountaintop ceremony. The natural beauty of the area never ceases to inspire me, and it makes being a luxury wedding photographer in Charlottesville an absolute joy.

2024 has been a year full of unforgettable Charlottesville Virginia weddings. Each one was unique and filled with heartfelt emotions. A bright and colorful weekend Indian wedding with Monica & Will, an unforgettable, jaw-dropping surprise for Kylie from her parents, and so many more special wedding moments. As a photographer, it was such an honor to capture these moments—the love, the laughter, and all the in-between moments that make every wedding so special.

Every year we pick our top 50 wedding photos, and selecting the best images of 2024 may have been the hardest yet! These amazing wedding photos show not only the beauty of the day, but priceless emotional moments between couples and their families, making them timeless treasures. From intimate first look moments, to jaw-dropping sunsets, these photos are a testament to the best local wedding photography Charlottesville has to offer.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with amazing couples and an incredible team of wedding professionals. These talented vendors really brought their A-game, and their dedication helped create the most stunning celebrations. Thank you to all the couples and vendors who made 2024 such a memorable year. I can’t wait to capture even more incredible love stories in the years to come!
