From its panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains to its thoughtfully designed event spaces, this venue creates a truly unforgettable backdrop for your special day.

Why Cedar Oaks Farm Is a Dream Venue for Wedding Photography

The event spaces are STUNNING, and also easy to photograph. There is no driving necessary to get from place to place, but there is still a ton of variety. From the views of Peaks Of Otter to the reception space that is full of natural light, you really can’t go wrong using any part of the space. They have a designated spot to hang your dress to get beautiful photos without having to worry about keeping the whole suite cleaned. The whole room gets a ton of natural light, and it lets out right into where you will walk down the aisle. That makes your logistical planning SO much easier. The flow of the buildings and where you will spend what part of your day just make sense.

Should I Have A First Look?

Cedar Oaks Farm has some of the best places for a first touch or a first look if that is something you want to have on your wedding day. You can read private vows during a first touch without having to see each other. The best part is, you don’t need to venture far from the couple’s suites to get amazing photo backdrops. A lot of couples want to read private vows before their ceremony, and a first touch gives you an opportunity to do that while still being able to see each other for the first time walking down the aisle. First looks always make the photo timeline post ceremony a lot faster, but we can always discuss your priorities for the day on our timeline call!

Wedding Photography at Cedar Oaks Farm

My photography style leans more documentary/ storytelling. I want you to be able to look back on your day and see the full story of your wedding day. That includes a portrait section of the day where I will give gentle guidance through some of my favorite prompts and poses, along with family photos! I help stage moments like your first touch or first look, but once that moment starts happening I step back and let you enjoy the time with your partner or family member. I want you to look back on your day and remember the moments with your closest people. With me, your day won’t feel like a photoshoot, because it isn’t!
