Yah! This wedding has been delivered and they love their photos! And I have to say, we do too! When we met Steph and John, we just knew that they would be one of those couples that would have an awesome wedding day, be excited for the full experience of the day, but also trust us to do what we love and are good at. The whole day was wonderful. These two opted not to do a first look which allowed us to do a lot of their separates on the front end of the day. Steph shared a really sweet reveal with her dad. John gave Stephanie a photo album… like a custom one and it was so sentimental. One of my favorite details from their day was including their dog on socks as well as signature drinks. Oh, and Steph wore cowboy boots!

Internet, meet Christy and Josh! We met these guys because of a series of relationships and what a sweet wedding day they had and GORGEOUS weather. Some of our personal highlights of their day was Christy’s reveal in front of her dad, our time with them during their newlywed portrait time, watching her dad and her rock out during their father/daughter dance, her 90 year old grandma dancing, and a really sweet toast from her maid of honor. Oh and how awesome… Christy is wearing her mom’s veil! I love that!

Last Friday, we had the honor of photographing Stephanie and Nick’s Wedding at Geneva Farms Golf Course in Jarrettsville. It was a beautiful week, leading up to a snowy/rainy mix of a day, but  that didn’t change attitudes!

We kicked off wedding season in Early March with a beautiful state-side wedding celebrating the marriage of Sai Rashmika & her groom, Venkat Sunil. We couldn’t be more excited to be apart of such a sweet celebration, with tons of kids, lots of dancing, and color galore!!

Cassie and Kevin are precious and their story sweet as ever. I asked Cassie to write up a blurb about their relationship (mainly because she can tell it so much better!). My favorite line “we are blessed to have found one another and know that is was simply by God’s sweet grace that we did.”  ughh… grab me the tissues! I’m a romantic by nature and fall in love over again with my own husband weekly. Knowing two people are completely and fully vulnerable to fall in love with another is amazing, a God gift indeed. It is by the sweet grace of God that he can hand pick someone for you.

Erica and Jim got married last September on a beautiful day at Historic Londontown Gardens. It took us a while to get this up on the blog but it’s here at last! This wedding was featured on Bayside Bride, and we were honored!

Amber and Chris were so much fun to get to know. I met them at one of the expos last fall when their name was drawn as the winner. Amber and her mom, who was with her, were ecstatic. We unfortunately were already booked on their wedding day, but we still got to work with them for their free engagement session.

Bright lights on stage. The crowd below watching and waiting for the music to start. His band was getting ready. A few casual stares and looks. Christina’s heart fluttered. Eric was totally distracted. But the recording had to go on.

I just can’t stand it any longer! Josh and Nichele are not just clients but they are dear friends of ours. We are so honored to be their wedding photographers. I really wish I met Nichele like YEARS ago! She’s a babe. I’ve known Josh pretty much since he was like a little kid… oh wait, I was a little kid too!! Josh and his family moved to Baltimore when I was in middle school… so I’ve known him over half of my life. I have the honor of knowing Nichele because of Josh now. Nichele has become a dear friend to me (ever since we moved to Ellicott City and I feel like my social life is my phone and computer, but really haha). Patrick and I really value and appreciate their friendship.

This story for us started in a starbucks, where we met them, and said “they would be a great fit for us!”. Mario and Allison, we are thrilled to be your wedding photographers, but more than that, our newest friends. 🙂

Allison and Mario wanted their engagement session to be in Alexandria, VA.
