Vermont Wedding: Cheryl and Billy at Topnotch Resort in Stowe

Although Cheryl was born and raised in New Hampshire, she lived in San Diego for three years after college. So needless to say, we definitely hit it off with our love for SoCal (and our San Diego cell phone numbers we both hold on to.) Cheryl and Billy traveled from New Hampshire to get married at Topnotch Resort in Stowe, Vermont. They really could not have asked for more perfect fall weather for their romantic wedding!

Cheryl got ready for her big day in her private suite with her bridesmaids. Cheryl’s dress was one for the books – the amount of detail and lace put into the design was breathtaking! She had two first looks, one with her dad (talk about all the happy tears) and one with her future husband, Billy. We made sure to get plenty of portraits on the deck and immersed in the trees before everyone took their places for the ceremony.

Cheryl and Billy got married under a gorgeous natural wood pergola surrounded by their friends and family. Their glamorous wedding celebration continued on the lawn with a clear tent, lounge furniture, tiny succulents, and a gold disco ball hanging from greenery leaves. The guest enjoyed delicious food and crafty cocktails while literally dancing under the stars.

Venue: Topnotch Resort
Bakery: North Country Cakes

Hi, I’m Savannah

Originally from sunny Southern California, I’ve found my heart—and my home—in the charm of Vermont. It’s a long story (best shared over coffee or cocktails), but let’s just say Stowe won me over fast. With its cozy, cinematic beauty, it truly feels like living in a Hallmark movie.

  • UVM seniors, this one’s for you.

I just opened a limited number of shared senior sessions on campus this spring. If you’ve been putting off senior photos or don’t want to commit to a full private session, this is the easiest way to do it.

You can grab a friend or come solo. Most people book solo and I’ll pair you with a great group.

We’ll spend an hour walking around campus, hitting some of the best spots, and capturing a mix of candid and editorial images. Nothing stiff or awkward. I’ll guide you the whole time.

Each person gets 40+ images, and there are only 12 total spots available.

If you’ve been thinking about doing senior photos, this is your sign.

When I said “have fun,” they really understood the assignment. 😍

Somewhere between the laughs, the chaos, and whatever was happening in half of these photos… they also got engaged. And yes, we made sure to sneak in plenty of sweet, romantic moments too.

Honestly the best kind of session. I smiled the whole time and all through editing. Thanks for sharing your joy and laughter with me! ❤️
