We discovered this really incredible venue up near Delaware called Rosewood Farms. If you haven’t heard of it or need to see what it looks like, totally google it, you’ll LOVE it. We decided to do their bridal show earlier this year and met some really amazing couples as a result!

Candice and Nick were one of them. Nick wasn’t there but Candice and Patrick connected as they talked about their wedding and the plans they had. When Candice and Nick reached out about meeting us and then shortly after meeting, they hired us, we were SOOO excited. 

Laura and Kurt are some of the most patient people ever, and I’m so grateful! All day we were praying for sunny skies and we almost made it… until it was time for their first look! Laura braved the winds to go outside and have a sweet, quiet moment with Kurt before the skies opened up on us! Luckily, the storm passed, and we were even able to get a few pictures in the rain. It ended up being the best of both worlds! 

Happy Friday!

Chrissy and Ryan’s session was better than I could imagine. They were pros. Their genuine affection, joy, and enthusiasm radiated during the whole time we were together. I proposed a few fun photo segments and they totally took me up on it. Wait until you see the Scooter and Ice Cream segment of our time together. 

Beach engagement sessions are some of our favorite. The salty air, the breeze that hits the dress and makes it do what only wind can do. Foot prints in the sand and wet feet. We love it all. Lindsay and Matt were champions. Our 2.5 hour engagement quickly became 4 (by accident) we were having so much fun and cruising all around a private golf course (by foot unfortunately, I love golf carts). These two never tired out… except at the end when we all realized we were starving and then went and ate the biggest chimichangas, enchiladas, and burritos. 

I’m gonna recap this wedding for you. Beautiful details, beautiful bridesmaids, a killer vendor team including My Flower Box, Crow Entertainment, Betsy Robinson Bridal, Flavor Cupcakery, Radiant Films, and so much more goodness. The day was smooth and wedding day full. Although we highly recommend first looks, these guys had the perfect timeline in place for a day without a first look. Watching Josh see Lindsay for the first time was so sweet. The backdrop for their wedding day was beautiful, they couldn’t have asked for better weather. It even rained and then stopped before ceremony which was amazing!! We didn’t even have to use umbrellas at all that day! 

This destination wedding was amazing. Brittany and Darryl had such a packed full day. Some of my favorite highlights to this day included a double date first look, a cat that followed us EVERYWHERE (like I had to pick it up and move it across a field in hopes it left us alone), a ceremony that was sweet with vows spoken on the spot, and a band that had people dancing all night long. Oh and don’t forget the reception details… I loved them all, from lanterns, to a beautiful 4 tiered cake and mini macaroon cakes too on a beautiful antique server. Love love love!

I remember going to the Antrim 1844 as a young girl with my parents. I thought it was gorgeous, something out of a magazine, something historic and so neat. I remember thinking their gardens would be so pretty to take pictures of. But never did I think we’d shoot a wedding here. The Antrim 1844 has been on my bucket list since 2014 when we went full time. This is our first wedding there.

Our time with these guys was so fun and adventurous. We drove almost an hour and a half to Abby’s parents private farm on 17 acres. It was absolutely beautiful and there was so much variety. We literally were driving off road across their property to find property gems that would be perfectly suited to show off our couple.
