I can’t tell you how excited I was to witness Dustin and Natalie finally tie the knot! These two high school sweethearts have been together for a DECADE, so their wedding day was the ultimate celebration of their love story. If you know the Tri-Cities, you know The Moore Mansion is an absolute icon here. It’s hard to pass up that stunning waterfront property, the pristine white house, and the classic car parked out front. So, it’s certainly no surprise it’s such a popular wedding spot. It was the perfect backdrop for Dustin and Natalie’s special day, and I loved every moment!

Pre-Ceremony Excitement: Capturing Good Vibes at The Moore Mansion

Shooting at The Moore Mansion has been a dream of mine since I first picked up the camera, so getting to capture Dustin and Natalie’s wedding felt extra special. Returning to this beautiful venue was always a blast, and the pre-ceremony moments were so much fun! Natalie and her bridesmaids were all about the good vibes, popping champagne in their cute matching outfits, and we couldn’t resist snapping some fun shots in the vintage clawfoot bathtub in the bridal suite. They decided to skip the first look, which I thought was their best choice. You could openly see the emotion on Dustin’s face when he saw Natalie walking down the aisle with her dad, and it was heartwarming to watch her tear up at that moment. You could feel the love between them.

A Night to Remember at The Moore Mansion

After the ceremony, we couldn’t resist taking gorgeous portraits of the newlyweds with that classic car and in front of the stunning Moore Mansion—such a perfect combo! Their grand entrance to the reception was a showstopper; they came in from the balcony like true royalty! They kept the decor classy with a black-and-white theme that fit the venue beautifully—simple yet elegant. Their guests knew how to party! The dance floor was, as they say, poppin’, with everyone getting down and celebrating. To top off the night, Natalie and Dustin made a magical exit with a sparkler sendoff, a fun way to wrap up their perfect day!
