My name is Aaron Riddle and I am a professional photographer residing in Winchester, Virginia. I specialize in wedding photography, portrait photography and special event photography needs.

As a wedding photographer my style is unobtrusive, friendly photojournalism. I capture the spontaneous smiles, people living in the moment and details of your day as they naturally unfold. Your job is to relax and enjoy your wedding! My job is to document it for you to relive forever.

Wedding Photography – Addison and Elise at Historic Long Branch

Location and Date: Historic Long Branch Home and Farm, Millwood, VA | July 2011

The Details: Addison and Elise’s wedding had a bit of everything for taking place during the summertime…heat, a thunderstorm, rain, sun and fun! Right after their vows, a storm rolled in, so we spent some time taking photos inside the historic home. The storm actually worked in our favor as it cooled off things dramatically and gave way to some pretty spectacular scenery afterwards. The most memorable aspect of this wedding in my mind? The cutting of the cake with a military sabre!

Wedding Photography – A Wedding in Reading (PA) with Eli and Jennifer

Location and Date: Reading, PA | July 2011

The Details: Eli and Jen are one of my all-time favorite couples. They drove all the way down to Winchester, VA for their engagement session (see it here), and are a couple whose love for one another truly shows through in their photographs. Always happy and smiling, their wedding day was a family event…with a small ceremony in a church followed up by a backyard pool party reception!

Wedding Photography – A University of Virginia Wedding with Michael and Allison

Location and Date: Wedding – University of Virginia Chapel | Reception – Kings Family Vineyards, Charlottesville, VA

The Details: Having graduated from the University of Virginia like her father, Allison chose to have her wedding to Michael in the historic University of Virginia Chapel. This was my first ever trip to the University of Virginia and what a gorgeous campus it is. After the wedding, the reception was held a short drive away at a local vineyard surrounded by mountains full of awesome views which I certainly took advantage of for their photographs.

Engagement Photography – Two Awesome Couples at Penn State

Location and Date: Penn State University, State College, PA

The Details: This September, I’m photographing Matt and Amanda’s wedding. They are Penn State graduates who met at the university, so naturally they wanted to do their e-session at State College. Their friends, Ryan and Annie (also Penn State grads), are also engaged and wanted to do their engagement session at Penn State too. We worked out a day so that I was able to photograph both of their e-sessions in and around Penn State.

Wedding Photography – Jay and Emily’s Celebration at Rappahannock Cellars

Location and Date: Ceremony – Strasburg Presbyterian Church | Reception – Rappahannock Cellars

The Details: Jay and Emily (view their engagement session) were married on a hot day this past June. I don’t really recall it being hot though, since everyone was too busy having a great time to even notice. Married at the church in Strasburg, VA, their reception was held in the barn at Rappahannock Cellars. The owners let us explore the vineyard for some wedding portraits and I once again climbed atop my tall ladder to get a group shot of everyone at the wedding (they are always a lot of fun). I did learn a few weeks later, that the church Jay and Emily were married in caught fire and was badly damaged. I received this e-mail from Emily’s mother shortly after:
