Hi there! Welcome to the Luke & Ashley blog, a journal about our lives, our beautiful couples, and their stories we get to tell. Stay a while and do say hello if you please!
Dalton & Brittany are seriously the cutest couples ever! They are high school sweethearts. They met in 9th grade at Jamestown High School in their Earth Science class. ( Who remembers that class?) After attending homecomings and proms and all the in-betweens they were inseparable! From Brittany’s own words:
I knew in high school I couldn’t imagine my life without him! But as we did long distance in college and then when I moved up to Blacksburg I knew I couldn’t let him go! We are attached at the hip! I can’t put my finger on the exact time I knew he was the one but I knew pretty early that we had something really special!
So we really really like these two. Sometimes, sessions can be hard, or a little awkward. Which is quite normal and something we expect. Not with Brittany and Dalton. We helped them feel comfortable in front of the camera and the session was full of laughter and fun. Oh, and of course their beautiful pup Storm was also a star in front of the camera! There is something so sweet getting two best friends together for a photo session. Their friendship and love make it so easy!
This session took place right before Thanksgiving weekend and the trees were at their peak. I think Williamsburg was trying to show off a little! We stayed in the historic area and because it was absolutely perfect we didn’t need to go far. Brittany wore the perfect clothes for their fall engagement shoot. You can never go wrong with a lovely sweater and a great pair of boots! So take notes if you’re planning your engagement session and if you’re really stuck you can always read this POST we put together for all those couples planning their engagement shoot. I am anticipating seeing this girl as a bride because she is going to be absolutely STUNNING!
These two will be getting married in Kingsmill and we will be working alongside some amazing talent for their wedding day! Including Jess with the Wedding Co. Of Williamsburg, Karen with Aleen Floral Design, and Andrew & Brittany with One Story Films! Talk about the DREAM TEAM right there! We cannot wait for the day that we can get them back in front of the camera!
One thing we are most excited about is to meet all their family and witness them all come together to celebrate these two become husband and wife. Being together for such a long period of time and pretty much growing up together definitely adds so much history and richness to the story. It will be amazing witnessing these two families become one!
Thank you, Dalton & Brittany, for trusting us to capture your incredible day! We cannot wait to see you again and we are so excited for September 2019!
Sharing some of our favorites from their Williamsburg engagement session!
Isn’t she the most adorable thing EVER??? I couldn’t help all the squealing…
Yes Williamsburg was definitely showing off with this golden glow! Praying we get this light on their wedding day too!
These two LOVE football and LOVE the Steelers… So this was the only appropriate thing to do…
Did you know we wrote a whole blog post on how to incorporate your dog into your session? Read it HERE!
As you can see we enjoy this beautiful city and we spend a lot of time shooting here.

We are Luke & Ashley, Virginia Wedding Photographers who specialize in Williamsburg, Richmond, and Charlottesville weddings. Our couples are those who know how to have fun, can laugh at themselves, and are looking forward to spending their lives with their best friends. During the engagement session, we spend our time tromping around these various cities and getting to know them. Usually, by the end of the session, we feel like old friends instead of just two strangers with cameras. Oh and usually the Beasley kids are trailing somewhere off behind us having their own adventure. It is a win-win for everyone involved! If you are a couple in search of a wedding photographer and if this all seems to bring excitement, then please head on over to our CONTACT page and tell us more about your story…
Oh and if you are planning a destination wedding… WE LOVE THOSE! Visit our Contact page and let us know all those fun details!

Beautiful as always. I miss home! Black and Gold is a fashion staple here in Pittsburgh. They even play the games at stores on Sundays. I’ve never seen anything like it!
I have never been to Pittsburg and it is definitely on my list to go!
