A Glimpse Into the Zimmermans’ Wedding Day
Recently, I had the joy of photographing Amber + Ronald’s wedding at Lucas Farm — a day filled with laughter, heartfelt moments, and golden-hour portraits that felt straight out of a movie. Their ceremony overlooked the pond as the sun shimmered across the water, and later, we wandered into the orchard for a few quiet portraits surrounded by glowing light and apple trees. It was the kind of day that reminds me why I love what I do.
My Favorite Photo Spots
If you’re planning a Lucas Farm wedding, here are a few of my favorite photography locations on the property:

• The White Barn — elegant, timeless, and versatile for both portraits and receptions.
Each space captures a different emotion — from serene and natural to editorial and classic — giving your gallery a well-rounded, story-driven feel.
