When you think about the classic, opulent Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, VA, one of the first things that come to mind is the grand staircase and the iconic golden pillars. These stunning features set the stage for Chathurika and Daniel’s engagement session, and I couldn’t have been more excited to photograph them in such an iconic Richmond location. After all, they’re getting married at The Jefferson in July, so it was the perfect backdrop for their love story!
The Jefferson Hotel is truly a Richmond treasure, blending history with timeless elegance. Its beauty provides a backdrop that effortlessly adds a touch of class and sophistication to any wedding or engagement session. The hotel’s intricate architecture and luxurious decor not only reflect the couple’s own love story, but they also give me, as a Richmond wedding photographer, a canvas to capture every breathtaking moment. From the moment I arrived, I knew we were about to create something special.
Chathurika and Daniel are the sweetest couple, and working with them was an absolute joy. They were a bit nervous at first, as it was their first professional photo session as a couple, but their natural chemistry and easygoing nature quickly put them at ease. Watching them relax and enjoy each other’s company was such a beautiful experience. I could tell they were already so in love, and it made capturing their moments even more special.
When I delivered the sneak peeks to Chathurika, I was absolutely thrilled to receive such a heartwarming message from her. Here’s what she wrote:
“Looooove them soooo much! I’m in tears. You are so so blessed with your photography talent!
We both are so much in love with these pictures already. Thank you very very much!”
Can you imagine how much this made my day? Receiving feedback like this reminds me why I love what I do. It’s all about capturing the unique connection between two people and creating images that they will treasure for a lifetime. Their appreciation means the world to me, and it makes all the behind-the-scenes work worth it.
Take a moment to enjoy a few of the images from Chathurika and Daniel’s engagement session. Their love and connection really shine through, and I can’t wait to continue documenting their journey as they get ready for their wedding at The Jefferson this summer. It’s going to be a day filled with elegance, love, and memories, and I feel so honored to be their Richmond wedding photographer.
