What an amazing way to open spring season for us.  Liz and Dave were married at the Amber Grove Inn in Moseley, Virginia last Saturday under the clear, blue April sky.  Its been a long time since we have shot at Amber Grove but its always been one of our favorites places to shoot with its backdrop of green pastures, a big beautiful barn, and perky gardens behind the historic farmhouse.

Time and again Liz and Dave’s nearest and dearest toasted the authenticity of their love for each other.  For a long time I have claimed that photographs can lie, that its not so hard to bend the truth with a camera.  Believe these photographs.  Liz and Dave really are this in love and everyone around them really was this happy.   It really was this beautiful, this real.  While acting is one of many talents possessed between this couple, this was no act.

In celebration of Liz’s love of theater, the tables were arranged by classic plays with lines about love printed and tied to lanterns.  Soft shades of silver, peach and pink made for a soft, romantic color scheme:

Here’s a slideshow with our favs from the day and if you would like to be notified by email when their online gallery is available for viewing, click here.  Congrats to Liz and Dave and many thanks for inviting us to be part of it.  Your love for one another other reminded us of why we love doing what we do.
