Special Moments

The bride and groom were all about simplicity and spending quality time with each other and their closest family members. They decided to forgo a traditional wedding party, keeping things sweet and intimate.

Their priorities were clear from the start: cherishing precious moments together and weaving in personal touches. As their photographer? I couldn’t have respected their decision more.

One of the most touching details of the day was the bride’s bouquet. The glass pieces adorning it were lovingly made by her grandmother, adding a sentimental touch that made it all the more special.

The bride’s getting-ready moments were beautifully simple, shared with her mom and grandmother.

Before meeting her soon-to-be husband for a heartwarming first look outside, she shared a touching moment with her dad, creating memories to last a lifetime.

The ceremony itself was nothing short of magical, overlooking the breathtaking blue ridge mountains. Though the wind may have been wild, love was the prevailing force, and even their furry friend, the dog, was there to witness their union.

As for the reception? The setup was cozy and cabin-style, a perfect reflection of the couple’s laid-back personalities. Family and friends gathered in the warm embrace of Montfair’s event lodge, enjoying the celebrations under a tented deck with dancing, laughter, and joy filling the air.

The Perfect End to a Perfect Night

Now, let’s talk about the most epic exit ever!

After saying their “I do’s,” the couple made a grand getaway on a tandem bike. How cool is that? And that’s not all – they hopped into a canoe and paddled away for some intimate moments together before rejoining their guests for the reception.

Kelsey was truly amazing to work with! She helped us tremendously with location and vendor recommendations. Not only did she come up with the perfect timeline but she coordinated with our other vendors which took a lot of the stress off us. Driving for hours to our location, hiking the trail multiple times, and getting drenched in the rain!! The best part was seeing all her hard work pay off with these gorgeous photographs! She is truly a master at her craft. She made us feel so at ease and the entire experience was spectacular!

"SHE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND THROUGHOUT
THE ENTIRE PROCESS"

MEGHAN & KEITH

Preparing for the wedding, the million little things that need to be seen to, arranged, planned for, accounted for, and crossed off the list. It is no wonder that the cliche exists portraying this process as utter madness. Consider this, and then consider how amazing, how truly wonderful it would be to book a photographer who can give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing the engagement photos will turn out perfect, the wedding photos will turn out perfect, and that in the photographer you may look forward to finding more than the hired help, but a lifelong friend. My friends, that is what you can not just look forward to, but can expect with complete confidence when booking Ridge and Ramble Photography.

Kelsey and her team were simply amazing all the way from the engagement session to the big day! Her quality of work is like none seem before and she makes it literally impossible to select just one photo as a favorite. She has been so helpful throughout this entire experience, kept great communication, and was so easy to work with! I am so thankful for all the beautiful work she put together and I will definitely be returning for her for any photography needs I will ever have! When looking at the photos, the amount of love and fun is literally jumping through the photos which I never realized one could capture.
