The day really could not have been more beautiful and perfect. The weather at Stone Tower Winery in Leesburg was gorgeous as we prepared for a cozy yet gorgeous vineyard wedding. When I met Marisa and John, I knew that their wedding was going to be gorgeous and relaxed and they certainly did not disappoint. They made me feel so welcome, like I was part of the family. We truly had a great time.

I was so excited to photograph at Stone Tower Winery as this was one of their first weddings. Everything was perfect down to the last detail. John and Marisa made such a great choice of venue and saw their vision through.

We were greeted by gorgeous blue skies and these great hand painted signs.  Just one reason why I love being a VA wedding photographer!

The venue has a great cottage where the bride and bridesmaids can get ready. It was such a great spot.
