I mean there’s just so much… the day was awesome. We left their day feeling so fulfilled. They might go down in history as the most family photos we’ve taken in a day but they may go down also as the best families… attentive, receptive and on time for photo segments! The florals are always a favorite for me. Can’t get enough. And Sami’s gown… OMG… Haley Paige, and the bridesmaids… Sami crushed it. What Sami picked out for her babes… they all looked incredible!
Woot Woot! These two are married! We were so excited to be part of this wedding. From the timeline to the vendors to the families and the really incredible wedding party, this couple deserved it all. To be trusted by a couple like these two is unreal. We can play, experiment, have a lot of fun. There wasn’t a single moment that these two got photo’d out… a phrase we use often and what we work really hard to avoid. The whole day was fun. The guests were so enjoyable to be around and empowered us to create magic and fun for all!
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!
Bridal Shows are one of those things that we LOVE to do from a marketing standpoint and relationship standpoint. The ability to meet a lot of people in a short period of time is thrilling but also allows us to meet some pretty amazing people. Nikki and Pat were a couple we met through the Bohemia River Overlook show. I actually forgot how tall they are, but something that we remember talking to them about what how height and weight plays a part in photography and posing people based off physical dynamic and those factors matters.
Nikki and Pat also ended up being the winner of our engagement session giveaway so when they chose us to be their wedding photographers too, we were thrilled! These guys met through the University of Delaware but actually met in another state thanks to Volleyball. Pat is a surfer and volleyball guy, and Nikki is a physical therapist for athletes. They wanted to do their session at their Alma Mater, so we drove up and met them and cruised campus. We did over 15k steps and got such cool variety… the university has so much photo “treasure” as we call it, places to take photos, spots and the lighting was awesome. My favorite location… the kissing arches. Supposedly it’s like divine intervention, that if you kiss under the arches, you’re destined to that person for life! Now that I think about it… I should have kissed Patrick while we were there!
This December wedding you’re gonna LOVE! We met Allison and James through one of our past couples… actually a lot of our past couples. There’s this whole group of friends that went to Stevenson together and met because of a slip of paper under a dorm room door. We knew this wedding would be so fun due to the fact that we just got to see these guys in another wedding (LINK TO KORINNA) we shot earlier in the year.
The day was amazing. It could have been REALLY cold and it wasn’t as bad as everyone thought. The fact that first look, all portraits, bridal party and family were outside for photos is amazing. And the backdrop at Thousand Acre Farms is absolutely beautiful.
We’ve known Aubrie and her family for over 10 years which I think is nuts! When we get to photograph friends weddings, they end up being so amazing and more special than I realized. When we shot their destination beach engagement session, we couldn’t wait for their wedding to come! I definitely cried twice or more at this wedding.
Aubrie is the only daughter of our friends Brian and Rana. Watching Brian see his daughter fully dressed in her wedding gown will be engraved in my mind for a long time. Again this same look as he watched his daughter dance with her husband for the first time at reception.
When we met Caity and Michael, we had just come from a pumpkin patch with our son Zeke. He was a few months old and we were so appreciative that they would be okay with us bringing him with us. As soon as we met them we knew their wedding would be special.
I had never heard of the Tidewater Inn until I was asked by a friend in the industry to shoot a wedding alongside her. I was so excited because we had just booked Caity and Michael’s wedding and I would get to see it before shooting there for one of our couples. Little did we know that it’s sister venue is one of our favorites, the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club!
Caity and Michael found us through a sibling of our past October couples, Fadi and Stephanie, and their families. They shared with us their story, my favorite being that Michael’s son would play a key role in the wedding day. When the day actually came, this guy was honestly, so sweet. Oh… and can he dance. A few special moments of the day for us was watching him give a gift to Caity and Michael, and also the sand pouring during ceremony representing becoming a family of 3.
I’ve known Aubrie for like 8 or 10 years… something insane. We met through church and we have been great friends with her parents for years. When Aubrie got engaged I was like a giddy little girl… probably because Aubrie is like a little sister to me. She was in my wedding party 5 years ago. To be shooting her wedding is so so special to us.
