Rikki and Cletus: Wedding Perfection

August 2, 2019

There are some weddings that are just absolutely beyond. Beyond perfect, beyond epic. They will live forever in the hearts and memories of the guests, going down as one of the greatest nights of all time. Rikki and Cletus are not just beautiful people, (and they are) they are warm, endearing, and passionate. Rikki has an amazing gift of making whoever she is speaking with feel as they are the most important person at that moment. She is disarming, and you are instant best friends. I love this about her. These two are a wonderful blend of laid back and visionary. When I saw all the bridesmaids in white and with beautiful white bouquets, my heart was full. And when Rikki stepped out in her classic off the shoulder dress, I was in photography heaven. Herrington was perfection, with its gorgeous gardens and bay views. Rikki made all of the Challah and all the cookies herself. Oh, and did I mention that Alicia Keys personally gave a video wishing these two a wonderful love and life together? I mean, how does that happen?! And the dancing. I can’t even with the dancing. You’ll just have to see. From manly chests to backflips, to one epic horah. I just photographed everything I possibly could, because it was going on. It was a night to remember. Congratulations to the both of you! Your life is full of so much love already! I can’t wait to see all the joy you will have together!

Stunning Elegance at Renditions Golf Course

July 20, 2019

Fun loving is the first adjective that comes to mind when I think of Rachel and Collin. The second thing I think of when I think of Rachel, is this girl has style! I love how she brought in soft pink dresses, delicate flowers, and teamed them with a rich blue and gold accents. Everything about Rachel and Collin’s wedding at Renditions Golf Course was just breathtaking. It doesn’t hurt that these two are absolute stunners on a regular day. Deck them out, and throw in a whole lot of love, and you have a photographers dream wedding shoot. Thank you both for making my job so wonderfully easy! I wish you both such love and happiness!!

Paradise on the Chesapeake

July 15, 2019

Soft yellows and vibrant summer colors adorn this beautiful wedding on the Chesapeake Bay at Herrington on the Bay in Maryland. Everything about this wedding is perfection, from babble head bridal party gifts, to table settings showcasing the love of travel Chelsea and Peter have, to the weather, and let’s not forget Chelsea looking absolutely like perfection itself. I loved hanging out with these two! Chelsea had such a vision for her wedding, and I know it so exciting to see everything come together so beautifully. This girl knows what she wants and she is smart and has a wonderful sense of humor. And to be honest, when hanging out with Peter, you better have a sense of humor, or quite frankly, you will be missing out. I don’t think any groom has made me laugh as much as this fella. My favorite moment of the night, was when Chelsea (who was in an a cappella group) sang in front of her new husband at the reception. <3 There is so much love in that room! Congratulations to you both! I wish you much love and happiness!!

Pink, Grey, and Paradise at Herrington on the Bay!

September 26, 2018

Exquisite taste is the first think I think of when I think of Tracy. Adventurous, travel lover, and dog love, are close behind. Needless to say she and Collin are my type of people. I remember listening to Collin talk about Tracy during their vows. He spoke about how much she learns about the people she comes in contact with, even if it is just for a moment, how she can really get to know someone. She listens, she cares. It’s true, at the end of the night, I told her I was going on vacation for a week, but I would be working hard to get her photos done quickly all the same. She responds (even after drinks and one of the most magical and long days of her life ) by asking where we were going and how lovely it would be. And she is really looking, and really listening. This girl has such a great big fabulous heart.

Their day was so hot to begin with, but we were lucky that it wasn’t pouring. Yet somehow how right before their ceremony, the temperature dropped 20 degrees and felt a little more like a fall day. Herrington on the Bay is a tropical paradise right in the middle of Maryland. And Tracy’s selections of soft pinks and grays are so complimentary(the bridesmaids dresses are stunning in that color pallet.) It was such a wonderful day, perfection really. I am so happy to have met both her and Collin. Congratulations you two! I wish you many wonderful adventures together!!

Lyndsay and Michael’s Epic Summer Wedding at the Newseum in DC

March 21, 2018

As I stare out at the beautiful snow on this second day of spring, my mind went to warmer thoughts. Summer, roof top bar and dancing with views of the Capitol, rocking out to the sounds of Billy Joel, by Billy Joe’s actual band. Michael and Lyndsay’s wedding was a dream to photograph. We started the day at the George for getting ready photos, then took the party bus to the National War Memorial for the ceremony. I loved the teal and pink that Lyndsay incorporated through out her wedding, vibrant and elegant, the two colors were as perfect together as the day. We then went around DC visiting the Lincoln Memorial and the Jefferson for some photos, then on to the Newsuem to party the night away. I still dream of Wolf Gang Puck’s chicken and waffles, swoon.These two are such a fun and classy couple. One of the cutest things about their wedding was how everyone just wanted to surprise one another. Lyndsay’s dad surprised her by hiring Billy Joel’s band to play during cocktail hour, and Lyndsay surprised Michael, an avid Nationals fan, to having the presidents come and party the night with them. I am so thankful I was able to share their day with them! I can’t believe we are coming up to your first anniversary! Best of luck to you both, and a lifetime of amazing experiences, new things, and much much happiness.
