Gatsby inspired Intimate Wedding

June 4, 2018

I loved celebrating with Cass and Wyatt this past Memorial Day weekend. Their family came from across the country to celebrate at Cass’s parents home in a very intimate backyard celebration. Touches of Gatsby were everywhere, invoking a certain ambiance and feel throughout the night. The evening was casual and personal and absolutely perfect. Cass wore a stunning 20’s inspired wedding gown with bead work that would make you swoon. Her heels were a good 4 inches in worthy attempt to be closer to her beau’s kisses. Her jewelry was heirloom and was a wonderful tie to her own history. And my favorite detail was their signature drink, found in an old Prohibition recipe book. And lastly, of course nothing could be more perfect than having your 4 legged family member close by for love and to celebrate (not to mention find any extra smores throughout the night). It rained a bit on us, but what a beautiful night all the same. Congratulations you two!! May you have many wonderful adventures!

Kaitlyn and Adam’s Wedding at the Phillip Merrill Environmental Center!

May 18, 2018

I met Kaitlyn when she was a bridesmaid at a wedding I was able to photograph of our mutual friend. I remember thinking, what a lovely bride she will be when I heard she was getting married. She has such a Grecian look about her, that is so complimented by her understated and classic taste. I love that she choose simple greens for her bouquet, and how they went perfectly with her invitations. Her dress with it’s gorgeous beaded back, and flowing lines further accentuated the elegant and classic look of her wedding. Kaitlyn, who is an environmentalist, and Adam choose to have their wedding at the Phillip Merrill Environmental Center in Annapolis. The day was perfect, the band amazing, and like most perfect days, it just flew by. I know they have some wonderful memories, and I am so excited to share these photos with them, to help relive the day! Congratulations you two!!

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.

Lizzie and Todd’s Wedding at Sotterley Plantation

September 26, 2017

When you first meet Lizzie and Todd you can see how absolutely down to earth and loving the two of them are. You also know immediately that they are die hard Notre Dame fans. After spending more time with them, you realize that they are adventurous and have such a passion for life. Todd grew up in Hawaii, and it was wonderful to see so many elements of his heritage throughout the night. His best friend even surprised the two of them with leis. I also loved seeing the orchard and driftwood on the tables. Though it rained much of their reception, the rain and wind tapered down just enough to get a few photos in the gorgeous gardens at Sotterely. Their night couldn’t have been more perfect, and I am so happy I was able to share in it with them! Congratulations to you both!!
