the fact that Elliott proposed at a Lighthouse in Cape May at the beach is so incredible and sweet. It’s permanent. That place is sentimental for a number of reasons. The love addiction in us says Lighthouse = A guide, a constant, a place of hope and safety, a place that realigns direction. How awesome that their engagement started at a lighthouse. Amy and Elliot, Patrick and I honestly can’t wait for your wedding. We are excited to come alongside you in the months to come and share life with you and share that marriage isn’t always calm waters, but at times stressful and heavy seas.

One time last year, I was pregnant, and Sarah our assistant and I were headed home on a flight from Colorado. We were returning from a destination engagement session in Breckenridge. We left Patrick behind because he wanted to snowboard longer. Awesome. Sarah and I literally flew in and went straight to a bridal show at the BMI downtown. It was the craziest day of flying in, grabbing all our “expo stuff” and heading down to set up. Little did we know we would be meeting a super cute couple, Ashley and Kevin. These guys talked to us for a while and off they left, and we left later and headed home.

We love shooting new places for engagement sessions and weddings. What’s so funny about the next two engagement sessions we are sharing is that they are at the same locations, and we have never shot here until now. Let me introduce for the first time… Clipper Mill. We LOVE this little industrial part of Baltimore. I grew up less than 10 minutes from Clipper Mill and didn’t even know it existed until 5 years ago, when we weren’t even full time photographers. Let’s just say, we will be back now that we know how awesome it photographs!
