I’m so excited to share a sneak preview of Sarah Jo & Brandon’s wedding! I loved working with this sweet couple, especially having the opportunity to shoot at the Mimslyn Inn in Luray, VA. The Mimslyn has so many great locations for pictures…it was like a playground for photographers. Luckily, Sarah Jo & Brandon allotted plenty of time after the ceremony for their portraits.

Sarah Jo & Brandon…thank you for the amazing opportunity. I loved working with you both & your amazing friends & family. May you both be blessed in your marriage! Enjoy!

Stephanie & Daniel’s wedding was such a sweet event! They couldn’t have had a nicer day, as the weather was perfect!! I loved working with both of them, especially their portraits after the ceremony, which I absolutely love. The ceremony was held at a cute church close to Natural Chimneys, with the reception at the Country Club. Karris Atkins of Skyline Events coordinated Stephanie & Daniel’s wedding. Karris is amazing to work with & extremely organized, which allowed for a flawless occasion.

Stephanie & Daniel, thank you for the special opportunity. I hope you enjoy a sneak preview!

On May 16, Debbie & Mark tied the knot at Debbie’s mom’s beautiful home off of Rte. 33. Their wedding was beautiful, despite the torrential downpour that occured during the ceremony & reception. Luckily, everyone stayed in good spirits, even when the ceremony came to an abrupt stop since we thought the tent might topple down on everyone. However, it made for some great pictures!:-) Since the rain canceled any opportunity of taking pictures outside, Debbie & Mark will have a special “day after” session with me this weekend, hopefully without any rain! Enjoy a couple shots from their wedding!

Erin & Andrew-Maternity

This past Saturday I had the pleasure of shooting a maternity session with Erin & Andrew. I’ve known Erin since college, as she was my bible study leader for two years while at JMU. When she contacted me recently about doing her & Andrew’s pictures, I was thrilled to work with them both! Erin & Andrew will be welcoming Josh to their family in about two months. Enjoy a couple shots from our session!

Bubble Gum, Chucks, & Parasols

This past Saturday, I spent the evening in downtown Harrisonburg teaching a one-on-one session with Brittany Miller, a student at JMU. Brittany had contacted me back in the Fall interested in an internship with my business. After several months, we FINALLY had our session together. She recently purchased a brand new camera & a couple lenses & really wanted to learn how to use them. So I brought along my good friend, Elizabeth, to model for us. You may have seen Elizabeth in some of my previous pictures a while ago. I asked her again, since she’s AMAZING to work with & is full of energy & spunk. After going over with Brittany camera basics (lighting, shutter speed, aperture, yadda yadda…), I let her have full reign of directing & working with Elizabeth. Brittany caught on quickly & interacted so naturally with Elizabeth.

As many of you know, I LOVE unique accessories that my clients bring along to their sessions, & Elizabeth’s accessories are a perfect example of how they make for some interesting shots. Enjoy a couple shots from our session!

Allison & Tim Good, April 18, 2009

This past Saturday I had the opportunity of capturing Allison & Tim’s wedding. Their wedding was such a sweet event, as their closest friends & family traveled from all over to participate in their day. Allison & Tim opted to see each other before the ceremony, which allowed time for lots of pictures! Thankfully, the weather was absolutely GORGEOUS & we spent lots of time outside before the ceremony. I loved how simplistic their wedding was, as there were no bridesmaids or groomsmen, but their closest friends participated in the ceremony through beautiful music, which made it personal & intimate. Allison & Tim were all smiles the entire day & couldn’t take their eyes off of each other, which allowed for some very sweet pictures

Allison & Tim–Thank you for this special opportunity. May you both be truly blessed in your marriage. Enjoy!

Sabrina & Bud Andrew~April 11, 2009

Sabrina & Bud’s wedding officially kicks off my 2009 wedding season! I had such a great time this past Saturday with Sabrina & Bud on their special day, their wedding truly resembled Sabrina & Bud’s fun-loving personalities. They were very relaxed (so it seemed!) & were so much fun to work with! Enjoy a couple shots of this sweet couple’s wedding!

Sabrina & Bud~Thank you for the wonderful opportunity & may God continuously bless you in your marriage!

Kristin & Dagan Engagement Shoot

jodimillerphotography — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 17:04:15 +0000

Friday, I had the opportunity to travel out to Fort Valley, VA to work with this sweet couple, Kristin & Dagan. We all had such a blast together & enjoyed traveling to several locations around Dagan’s family’s farm…there were so many to choose from! I love being able to work in an environment with so much character, especially a location that is meaningful to the couple. Kristin & Dagan were so natural in front of the camera, it made my job easy! It was so hard to choose which pictures to post, because I love all of them.

Kristin & Dagan, we loved working with you both & we’re so excited to photograph your wedding in June! Enjoy!

Jessica & Patrick Engagement

Sunday afternoon I had the pleasure of working with Jessica & Patrick at a gorgeous location close to their home in Fulks Run. The weather was absolutely perfect! They brought along their three month old labrador mix, Callie for a couple shots…such a sweet puppy! We all traveled to several locations in Patrick’s truck, including the gutted school bus we passed along the way, which ended up being one of my favorites. Enjoy a couple shots of this sweet couple!

Jessica & Patrick I look forward to working with you again in October on your big day

The Vetter Family

This past Saturday, I spent some time working with the Vetter family. The Vetter’s recently introduced Braeden to their family in February & they wanted to have a couple family pictures taken. I had such a great time working with each one of them and capturing their fun, loving personalities. Braeden wasn’t entirely too happy to have his picture taken, but he was a great trooper! A special thanks to Jay, Stephanie, Meredith, Brooke, and the adorable Braeden for a great shoot!

Enjoy!
