Hello! I'm so happy you are here. My name is Liz Seidel and I am a photographer located in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
I have been running my photography business based out of Lynchburg for 5 years. I have photographed weddings all over Virginia, as well as Pennsylvania, New Jersey Ohio, and Arkansas. I specialize in Wedding Photography that is both classic and timeless with a photojournalistic and artistic edge. I truly enjoy capturing real moments that reflect my couples' personalities, as well as their families and guests. It's an opportunity that I am so grateful to have and I enjoy each moment spent with my couples on their wedding day. You can read more about my working style and approach to wedding photography here.
My favorite venues in the Hampton Roads area are The Chrysler Museum, MOCA, and Lesner Inn. I love traveling to Tides Inn on the Northern Neck for beautiful weddings as well.
Most of my weddings from year to year have taken place in or around the Richmond area at places like Linden Row in, The Commonwealth Club, The Virginia House and The Jefferson.
Charlottesville has some amazing venues that I've been able to photograph at including Keswick Vineyards and Trump Winery. Barboursville has a gorgeous backdrop for images with ruins on site that make for a gorgeous ceremony space.
Some of my favorite venues in the Lynchburg, Forest, and Bedford area that are popular are West Manor Estates, Tresca on 8th, Terraceview by The James, The Bedford Columns, Old Mill Farm, Historic Riverview on the James, Sorella Farms, Sierra Vista, Diamond V Farm and Bella Rose Plantation to name a few.
When you book Sterling Life Photography for your wedding day, you can trust that I have seen all types of venues all over the state and I think that offers something unique. I'm always at new and different venues with different lighting and I look at that as a chance to consistently make something new and unique for my couples.

One of the new venues in the area that I am so excited for is The Virginian Hotel. It has recently been renovated and it is an absolute dream. While Lynchburg is gorgeous and has so many amazing venues that I love, traveling for weddings has become a typical aspect of my business. I'm so thrilled when people outside of the area find me to document their day. I especially love the charm of Charlottesville. You can find so many beautiful vineyards and venues to have your wedding reception. Some of these places include, Blenheim Vineyards, Early Mountain Vineyard, King Family Vineyards, Mount Ida Farm, Wolftrap Farm, Barboursville Vineyard, Pippin Hill Farm and Vineyards, and Clifton Inn. If you are in the Richmond area, some beautiful spaces include the John Marshall Ballrooms, Linden Rowe Inn, The Jefferson, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and The Mill at Fine Creek. I also have shot weddings at the homes of my couples or their parents. Those are always a lovely change up from traditional venues.
I am so happy to have worked with so many amazing couples that are kind enough to take time to leave me reviews on wedding wire, the knot, and google. Please feel free to read through them and see what others have to say about working with me. You can also find a few kind words on my facebook page as well.
