Martinsburg’s historic mansion venue — gardens, grand interiors, and three real wedding films from the team based ten minutes away.
Check Your DateThe Purple Iris at Hartwood Mansion is Martinsburg’s signature historic venue — manicured gardens for golden-hour portraits, a mansion backdrop with real character, and interiors that glow once the reception starts. We have filmed multiple full weddings here, including church-ceremony days that ended in epic Purple Iris receptions.
We are based in Martinsburg, ten minutes away. That means no travel-day risk, timelines that already fit the property’s flow, and a crew that knows exactly where the garden light lands in every season — one team, photo and film together.
Three films from the property — an emotional full film, its sunshine-filled highlight cut, and a church ceremony that rolled into a Purple Iris reception.

The gardens are the portrait star here — we schedule couple portraits for the hour the property turns gold, then move inside as the reception light takes over.
Several Purple Iris weddings start at St. James or another Martinsburg church. One photo-and-film crew covers both ends without a coverage gap in between.
Historic rooms mean character — and mixed lighting. We bring the same lighting discipline you see in the films above so interiors stay warm, not orange.
How many weddings have you covered at The Purple Iris?
Multiple — three films from the property are embedded above, and full galleries are available on request.
We’re doing a church ceremony first. Can you cover both?
Yes, that is a Purple Iris classic and we have filmed exactly that day. One team moves with you from the church to the mansion.
Do you do photo and video together there?
Always — one team, one timeline, planned around the property’s light.
