Katherine and Taylor’s Engagement Session

Published on May 26, 2023 by Remy PhotosLeave a comment

We did SO much laughing during Katherine and Taylor’s engagement session at the Virginia Museum of History & Culture! In just thirty minutes we got enough images for a full gallery of giggles and sweet, romantic moments.

The history museum, located in the heart of Richmond’s Museum District, was a beautiful backdrop for their engagement photos. I love the clean and neutral color of the building, the classic columns and architectural details, and of course the blooming hydrangeas!

Katharine wore a perfectly bridal, trendy, white mini dress, and Taylor opted for a blue button-up that really made their light eyes pop. I managed to find both pink and purple blossoms around the property for some very on-brand Remy Photos ring shots of Katharine’s new favorite piece of jewelry! And right at the end of the shoot, we lucked out with a stream of gorgeous golden light.

The best memories and the warmest smiles are captured when the couple just has FUN and treats their engagement session like a date night… where I’m the third wheel. It was truly a joy being that third wheel for the night with these two! Congratulations, cuties!

Xo, Remy

Richmond Engagement Session | Christa + Rob

Christa and Rob are without a doubt one of my favorite couples. They are joyful, silly, fun, and madly in love with each other. Their cuteness is overwhelming and their love for each other makes my heart so happy! Their engagement session last Fall was absolutely stunning. We started at the VA State Capitol with soft colors and formal outfits. Then we made our way to Belle Isle while they changed into the most perfect Fall outfits! The shoot was complete with golden sunshine over the river and a colorful sunset while walking over the bridge. It was a beautiful evening for two beautiful souls. I can’t wait to share their recent wedding pictures based in Richmond with a church ceremony and Monument Avenue portraits!

Richmond Engagement Session | Sarah + Matthew

Welcome to one of my favorite engagement sessions EVER. Sarah and Matthew decided to have the ultimate Richmond photo shoot in four awesome locations. We started with the formal and romantic look at the VA State Capitol, then they changed into the coolest outfits for two very meaningful places to them. We stopped outside of the Berkeley Hotel and then walked over to the fountain where Matthew proposed! I loved the way he just scooped her up and spun her around- so cute!! For our last location, we made it to Libby Hill Park at the perfect time for some champagne popping and golden hour kisses. Everything about their engagement session was just so dreamy!! I adore these two and their love for each other. Sarah and Matthew tied the knot last weekend at Amber Grove and I can’t wait to share their beautiful day on the blog next week!

D.C. Engagement Session | Sarah+Danny

MY BEST FRIEND IS GETTING MARRIED!!!! Sarah is one of my most long-term friends- we have known each other since 5th grade when we met at a chorus concert. We became friends in middle school and that was the beginning of a friendship that has meant so much to me. Friends come and go, especially through high school, college, AND your 20’s when life can be messy and confusing… but not this chick. We have aways been and will always be friends that truly love each other through all of life’s ups and downs.

My heart was exploding with joy and I couldn’t help myself from crying when I got the call that Danny proposed!!! These two have been together for EIGHT years now! They have been through so much together, they have accomplished so many things; both individually and as a couple, and I have watched them grow into an amazing relationship. I couldn’t be more thrilled for them as they officially enter their wedding week! I’ll need some waterproof mascara and a box of tissues because this is going to be quite the emotional day!

Sarah and Danny, I wish you both a lifetime of unconditional love, support, laughter, joy, and so many blessings. Your friendship means the world to me and I am so thankful I get to be a part of your lives. Taking your engagement pictures was a true gift to me and I will always adore this memory! I love you both so much and I can’t wait to celebrate YOU on your big day!

Springtime Brown’s Island Engagement Session | Mackenzie + Derrik

Published on March 27, 2019March 27, 2019 by Remy PhotosLeave a comment

One of my favorite locations for an engagement session is Brown’s Island because it gives you the fresh blooms in Spring, the water, all the different bridges, a beautiful field, river rocks over looking the sunset, and more! I knew this would be the perfect spot for MacKenzie and Derrik since they were coming from out of town to take their engagement pictures. Turns out it was just in time for those pretty cherry blossoms, too!

This was my first time meeting MacKenzie and Derrik in person and we instantly connected. We had SO much fun walking around and getting to know each other better. They’re one of those couples you could just talk to for over an hour and then realize you haven’t even picked up your camera yet. MacKenzie is so sweet and I love the way Derrik makes her laugh. But you’ll also notice the way he looks at her in the pictures below and it’ll just make your heart melt! After spending just a few moments together, I knew they were adorably crazy about each other. They can be silly and laugh at each other, but they also nail the whole romantic gazing in each others eyes look. I love that MacKenzie wanted to be “more them” and chose a casual outfit with her favorite type of shoes- flip flops! All I can really wish for in an engagement session is for the couple to be completely themselves in every way and I think these pictures totally bring that out.

After leaving this shoot, I felt even more excited for their wedding day coming up in June at The Barns of Kanak! I can sense that it’s going to be a crazy fun wedding and we’re going to get some crazy good pictures! 🙂

Engagement Session in RVA

Published on July 21, 2017August 3, 2017 by Remy PhotosLeave a comment

In honor of these two lovely people getting married this weekend (EEE YAY!!), I figured I would share their sweet engagement session from this past winter! Kayla was my random roommate during my first year at East Carolina University. Sure enough, after her soon-to-be hubby proposed a few years later, she reached out to book their engagement session with me!

I was seriously SO excited for this! Kayla and Randy are crazy fun, so in love, and they just radiate happiness!! This particular winter day was, of course, absolutely FREEZING. I don’t know how she did it, but she was really a trooper wearing those dresses in that frigid weather! She looked stunning and these images are some of my favorites!! Cloudy skies turned into the most perfect golden hour. You’ll definitely want to stick around to see how this session ended on Libby Hill! Allll the heart eyes for that lighting and these two love birds! 🙂
