Tom Daly Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Ruckersville, VA

I'm a full-time freelance photographer, and have been photographing weddings since 2008. Risking understatement, I love being a photographer. When it comes to weddings, I photograph them in my favorite style -- journalistic. Nothing makes me happier than finding cool, off-the-wall moments at your wedding that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. Well, unless those moments happen to be in supreme sunset light. I try to be as hands-off as I can, while still providing direction when needed. Your wedding won't be a Hollywood production photo-shoot with me, it'll be a party with your family and friends that you will be able to enjoy to the fullest!

It is my honor to capture the purest and most sincere moments in peoples’ lives. Not only do I take pride in providing my clients with stunning images, I do so in a way that is always professional and engaging. Weddings don’t always go exactly as planned. Sometimes there is bad weather, poor lighting, or the timeline just gets derailed. It happens! My clients know that they never need to worry. Dealing with surprises is second nature to me, and my career as a seasoned photographer allows me to never skip a beat. The details of your special day will always be captured beautifully.

Robert is an amazing photographer that exceeded all expectations. He made our friends and families feel at ease while taking genuine pictures. He captured every moment with beautiful pictures that I will cherish forever. Thanks for everything!

Hi, lovebirds. I’m Cassidy, a big-hearted type A and perpetual wanderluster. I’m here to take the stress off your shoulders and your timeline off your plate. So you can savor the champagne, the getting-ready playlist, the dinner-then-dancing flow of it all. With a background in ballet and a decade of experience choreographing everything from stage productions to global conferences, I know how to keep things moving beautifully. Planning a wedding isn’t just about wielding clipboards. It’s about intentionally making space for joy- your joy.

I got married in a courthouse and was convinced I could plan everything myself. But! There are always details to forget, timelines to miss, etc. Cassidy was so kind throughout the entire planning process. She took care of everything. She gathered data and executed a plan that made me feel supported, but not bossed around. My husband and I couldn't have done it without her!

Leah, Wond, and Patrick were a dream to work with! They were absolutely amazing from our very first inquiry all the way through our event and after. My husband and I aren’t huge drinkers so we were a little intimidated by the process of creating custom cocktails for our wedding, but they guided us through everything so easily and came up with the most beautiful, unique, and delicious drinks! Our guests could not stop raving about them! You can tell how much they love what they do and how much they care about their craft. They put so much love and attention to detail into each drink they served. It was truly art. And they brought the best vibes to our wedding too! They were so enthusiastic and having fun with our guests while serving up amazing drinks. We truly cannot recommend them enough!

We had an absolutely incredible wedding at Eastwood in September of 2024. The views are stunning, the tent is so special and you cannot beat the location. Highly, highly recommend. The team at Eastwood is spectacular! Emma's partnership and guidance throughout the process was unparalleled. She took us up to the tent/terrace several times (more times than she needed to) as we figured out our vision for the wedding. Having the cottage on location was incredibly helpful. We were not only able to get organized in the days leading up, but also had a space for people to gather / our flower girls were able to sneak down and go down to bed a bit early too. We are so thrilled that we had our wedding at Eastwood!

The Wool Factory is a historic wedding venue that is located in Charlottesville, Virginia. The industrial design of this building has been preserved, providing a breathtaking, clean, and elegant aesthetic. This stunning venue was born from The Historic Woolen Mills, a 19th-century textile mill located just one mile from Downtown Charlottesville. The structure is home to an open and airy event space, a craft microbrewery, an artisan-style restaurant, and both a coffee and wine shop. This premier venue is the culmination of efforts from talented visionaries that see limitless potential in the reinventing of spaces. This beautiful venue offers in-house catering overseen by Executive Chef Tucker Yoder. While being nestled by The Rivanna Trail, this venue offers modern amenities such as on-site parking for up to 300 individuals, accessible restrooms, and insulated spaces.

  • Has a dance floor for celebration
  • Both indoor and outdoor options

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • Best for events with big guest lists
  • No on-site guest accommodations
We did a full buyout of the space for a 160 person wedding in May 2025, and I would highly recommend this venue for a wedding! There are many nice picturing-taking spots around the property. We were able to get some more nature focused pictures outside and then moved inside to capture the wonderful industrial feel of the space. We had about 20 tables of 8-9 people and it didn't feel cramped. The food was amazing and almost exactly like what we tried at the tasting. The staff was great during the event. We had to move our ceremony inside and they did the room flip to cocktail hour super quickly! Although it was pricey, we appreciate that the Wool Factory handled everything that had to do the with tables, we did not need to rent plates, napkins, glassware, etc and it was nice to just have all of that tied in with the food and beverage. The only downsides I would mention was that communication was a bit slow (I often had to send a followup email to get a response), the beer options were not given to us until 30 days before, and we had to rent chairs for the tables since they only provided benches. Also they had a strict "no bare feet" on the dance floor, which is totally understandable, but I wish I would have know beforehand so that I could have warned my guests to bring flats in addition to their heels. Overall, it was a beautiful venue and we had an amazing day!

The wedding was absolutely wonderful and exactly what my daughter wanted. All our guests were well taken care of and had a great time. Mary was our coordinate and she was fantastic to work with. She helped keep us on track with all of our vendors. The wedding was before the sunset and it was pretty bright out for our guests but it was perfect for the wedding party and for pictures. We had rented a tent in case of foul weather which thankfully didn't happen. We had a cocktail hour under the tent during pictures, dinner under the wisteria and used the pavilion for dancing. I was a tad nervous about a guest count of around 125 but it worked beautifully!

Designed to celebrate natural beauty from the inside out, our cake layers are baked with organic eggs and local ingredients including tri-color carrots, seasonal berries, and even local spirits and craft beer from time to time. We use botanical extracts to naturally color buttercream and style our cakes with wild foraged edible flowers, freshly-plucked herbs, culinary greens and blushing fruits on the vine.

I wanted a very classic and elegant looking wedding cake, ideally lemon-flavored and not thousands and thousands of dollars. We looked through a lot of different bakeries in the Charlottesville area, and are so, so grateful we found Cake Bloom. Working with Carrington was so easy and she is very responsive, and they're really reasonably priced. After tasting the flavors, it was one of the easiest decisions to say YES to them. The Cake Bloom team brought my wedding cake dreams to life, and it was one of the most delicious cakes I've ever had too. You really can't go wrong with them!

Willow Branch is Step mother/daughter team, Cathy Coyle and Mary Pearl Monnes. Willow Branch has grown from a life long love of flowers, gardening, art, nature and all things beautiful. Backgrounds in fine art and horticulture enable us to visualize unique combinations of color, form and texture with consideration for each individual couple and season. We work closely with dedicated local growers to select the best material for our designs. Embracing seasonal selections allow the beholder to take forward a memento of their experience, reliving the beauty of a day again and again in the passing of seasons.

As with many women, I have been dreaming about my wedding since I was a little girl playing pretend. My husband and I also had a two-year long engagement, so I dreamed even more intensely about what everything would look like. What we couldn't have predicted was how unbelievably gorgeous everything would look, because our florals were so vibrant and fresh and beautiful. I have never seen flowers so bright and healthy as Willow Branch Flowers'. They really made everything else in our wedding pop, and I'm so happy I got my bouquet preserved so I can always have a piece of these gorgeous florals. They were so easy to work with, very responsive, and even stayed after the ceremony to help set up the reception. The arch was easily my favorite part, but every table and votive and even the flower girls' petals were absolute perfection. They are completely worth it and more. I HIGHLY recommend booking with them!

If you are looking for a wedding photographer (or portrait photographer) in the Charlottesville area, look no further. We got married at King Family Vineyards this summer and that's where I first saw some of Aaron's photos. I was just blown away. He has this way capturing the fun little moments, and also creating more serious shots that are just epic (with and without a drone)! He's one of a kind and super fun to work with. We had him and his wife Lisa shooting at our wedding, and I have such great memories goofing off with the two of them out in the vineyards getting some beautiful shots. He has been doing this for a long time and he knows every angle, every trick in the book. He also knows and works well with all of the Charlottesville-area wedding vendors. The one thing you do not want to skimp on with your wedding is the photos, because that's what you'll have to look back on forever. If you want someone who is fun to work with and who will give you the most gorgeous keepsakes of your special day, look no further. We made the best decision choosing Aaron Watson!

Jen photographed our wedding and did an incredible job while somehow making sure we had fun (I'm nervous in front of the camera!). I have never felt so photogenic or seen SO many perfect photos that captured our friends and family. Not only did she get beautiful stills, she also captured a million amazing moments that we will treasure forever. Jen truly is the best.

Silver Streak Weddings

Mike Silverman started Silver Streak Weddings, a natural move based on his background in TV and video production. While he gained tons of technical know-how and hands-on experience from years of working in the industry, what really sets Silver Streak Weddings apart doesn’t come from any handbook. It comes from Mike’s passion for telling stories (your story), producing a wholly customized video that matches your style and personality. Mike accomplishes this by working closely with couples to discover and then deliver exactly what you’re looking for.

I have worked with Mike from Silver Streak Weddings for about 2 years, providing photo booth services for his clients who want to add that along with his photography and videography. Mike is very communicative in setting up events and relating back to the client with all the information for the photo booth services. In working with him, I know that he is thorough with the client and wants to make sure they understand the service, pricing, and exactly what is included. Mike is easy to work with, provides excellent communication, and has shown a commitment to ensuring his clients are completely satisfied with all the services offered.

Harvest Moon Catering

Hospitality is about creating a sense of place where everyone has a seat at the table. At Harvest Moon Catering we give consistent and thoughtful attention to details. We create your vision with a nod to seamless service, excellent preparation of quality food, for big and small events alike. We believe exceptional service as well as exceptional food should be a given, and train our staff accordingly.

From the very beginning, Harvest Moon was extremely responsive and clear about pricing, packages, and flexible options. We worked with Brittany (BK) who was fantastic, and they even worked with us to incorporate some Middle Eastern options into our wedding day. Our tasting was incredibly fun, and a highlight of the wedding planning process for us. They made us feel special and cared for throughout. The food itself was fantastic. It was very impressive how well they captured the flavors of dishes they had not made before. The beverages were also a highlight and all of our guests loved the mixed drinks and mocktails. We had a significant number of people at our wedding who were not drinking, and Harvest Moon worked with us to make sure we had great options for everyone, including a sparking cider toast in place of a champagne toast. We served a combination of our own Middle Eastern deserts and Harvest Moon’s excellent deserts and they set them all up beautifully. We are still getting compliments on our wedding food months later. Harvest Moon was a pleasure to work with throughout and we would highly recommend them.

Our Draped in White family is committed to connecting with you on a very personal level. Our goal is to create a perfectly crafted wedding film that shows your love story in an artistic way. Many couples feel disconnected from the wedding film process so we allow you to choose the different aspects of your wedding film; everything from music and color schemes all the way to filming styles and editing theme.

Draped in White is THE best video brand we have ever worked with. From a photographer's and past bride's perspective, I just can't recommend them enough. They are extremely professional, yet personable. And to say they are incredibly talented does not even begin to describe the quality of work they provide. They are by far the best in the market in my opinion.
