Eastern Shore Wedding Photographer ~Mimi & Jason are Married!~

Jay and I LOVE driving to the Eastern Shore of Virginia for weddings.  The people there are so nice and we always have such a great time!  Mimi & Jason’s wedding in Birdnest Virginia, was no exception!  They were Married on Mimi’s Grandmother’s soybean farm, in a rustic Ceremony full of love and laughter.  They were surrounded by so many Friends and Family and it was such an honor to be part of such a special day!  When I got there Mimi was getting ready and then were went right into a First look for her and Jason!
