Capturing Love and Joy: Megan and Victoria’s Magical Wedding Day


As a wedding photographer, I’ve had the privilege of capturing many beautiful moments, but Megan and Victoria’s wedding was truly special. Their big day, held on August 10, 2024, at the Boxcar Bar & Arcade in Greensboro, NC, was a celebration filled with love, laughter, and unique touches that perfectly reflected their personalities and their deep connection.


A Love Story in the Stars


Megan and Victoria’s story is one that feels almost written in the stars. Both Geminis, their playful and vibrant energy was evident from the first moment I met them. I had the pleasure of attending their Gemini-themed party the previous year, which allowed me to get to know them better and see firsthand how their love for each other shines through in every aspect of their lives.


Their wedding day was a beautiful continuation of that connection. The venue, Boxcar Bar & Arcade, was the perfect backdrop for their celebration—fun, eclectic, and uniquely them.

Capturing the Details


One of my favorite moments from the day was photographing a stunning ring box that read “You are my universe.” This simple yet profound detail encapsulated the essence of Megan and Victoria’s relationship. The love and admiration they have for each other were evident in every detail, and this ring box was a beautiful symbol of their commitment and affection.

On the Tracks of Love


After their heartfelt ceremony, we ventured to the train tracks behind the bar for a photo session that was both romantic and whimsical. The tracks, with their rustic charm, provided a perfect contrast to the elegance of Megan and Victoria’s wedding attire. Adding to the allure of the backdrop were the vibrant murals painted on the building behind the tracks. Among these murals were striking images, including a tribute to Mac Miller and a vivid depiction of a pitbull, which added a colorful and urban touch to our photos. The murals not only enriched the visual narrative but also mirrored the couple’s dynamic and vibrant personalities.

Fun and Games at the Reception


The reception was a lively celebration of Megan and Victoria’s personalities. One of the highlights was the shoe game—a fun and interactive activity that had everyone laughing. With each question asked, Megan and Victoria had to hold up the shoe of the person they thought was the best fit for the answer. It was a delightful way to show their understanding of each other’s quirks and strengths.
