Marti and Andreas are getting married at the end of this month at Sacred Heart Church in Norfolk and their reception will follow at a new venue at the corner of Virginia Beach Blvd and Laskin (used to be Taverna?). ANYWAY! My wife, Kat, has known Andreas since he was a child and has been friends with his Mom (Anna) for many many years.
I didn’t know any of this when Marti contacted me to do their wedding photography. All of this came out after the fact. So, the pressure is REALLY on now. haha
Anna, mother of the groom, is the owner of LaBella Italia on Laskin Road.
Marti and Andreas opened a sister restaurant LaBella In Ghent about 6-7 months ago.
Kat and I have dined at both places, and if you love AUTHENTIC Italian food. There’s none better around.
We decided to go a bit more urban for their engagement photography so we started at Waterside in Norfolk and just walked around main street and the surrounding area to goof around and take some photos. This is just a smidge of what I did that afternoon.

I’m really looking forward to this wedding, there’s going to be a fairly large contingent of family coming in from Italy and Kat’s teaching me rudimentary Italian. Nothing like a situation like that to completely embarrass myself saying words where I only have a vague idea of what they truly mean. haha
