This wedding was an absolute dream! We love shooting destination weddings and Chris and Leanna’s wedding was one for the books. These two tied the knot on the warm sandy beach of Jamaica at the Iberostar Grand Rose Hall with their family and closest friends surrounding them. The beautiful breeze and clear water ocean was the perfect backdrop for their wedding!
We had our first wedding in 2020 and it was definitely different than originally planned. However, Zach and Sydney’s small wedding celebration was just as special and beautiful. Especially because the wedding took place in the front yard of Sydney’s childhood home! Because of the gathering restrictions of 10 people or less, they chose to only have their parents and siblings at the ceremony. Thankfully because of technology, they were able to Zoom the rest of their wedding guests in to watch!
This post took a little longer than normal because of how busy we were this past fall! We had an incredible wedding season in 2019 and worked with so many amazing couples. I wanted to showcase some of our favorite images from the season. Each wedding was so different and capturing the different love stories is a joy!
What a year! In 2019 we shot 15 weddings, 10 engagement sessions, 45 family sessions, 12 maternity sessions, and 21 newborn sessions. So many amazing clients and relationships we had the honor to capture! I love doing this behind the scenes post every year to show you all what the environment was like where the images were taken and the different ways we get our shots.
Our last wedding of the year was a success! Scott and Taylor said, “I do” at the McDonogh Chapel with their family and friends in attendance. During the wedding sweet little Bo kept walking up to the altar and wanted to be a part of the ceremony! It was adorable. After the ceremony, everyone headed to the Elkridge Country Club for dinner and dancing. It was a wonderful evening.
Chris and Jo are one of those couples who sync so well together. They are both head-over-heels for each other which made their wedding day an amazing celebration. Chris and Jo exchanged beautiful vows at the District Winery as the sun was setting over DC. They danced the night away with their family and friends with delicious wine from the winery and amazing music!
William and Jennifer exchanged beautiful vows in front of their friends and family at their home church on the perfect October day. After the ceremony, they both were teary-eyed with joy in becoming husband and wife! The fun continued as they danced the night away at Hayfields Country Club with delicious food and cake.
Christian and Chelsea are married! These two tied the knot overlooking the water at Herrington on the Bay with their friends and family surrounding them. There were gorgeous wooden tables, tall candles, and beautiful florals throughout the reception. The cherry on top was halfway through the reception, Christian’s brother surprised him at the wedding. Their family didn’t think they would see him at the wedding because he was getting deployed to Afghanistan, so it was a wonderful surprise that he had a few more weeks before he left!
Jacob and Hayley are married! These two are one of the sweetest couples we have ever worked with. They were in their own world during the First Look and portraits because they were so excited to become husband and wife. There were lots of tears as Hayley walked down the aisle at Liberty Mountain Resort! The pops of pink and the candy and cigar bar were the perfect decor pieces for Jacob and Hayley’s big day.
Kirsten and Dan are married!! These two CrossFitters tied the knot at the beautiful Accelerator Space in Baltimore with their closest family and friends surrounding them. Dan proposed on a boat in Annapolis so sharing a first look and personal vows before the Ceremony was very special. It was a gorgeous October day with lots of tears and laughter! Their two pups Pippin and Rumpy were also in attendance to watch their parents become husband and wife.
Kyle and Kaitlyn tied the knot overlooking the water at Herrington on the Bay on a gorgeous fall day. Their adorable pup Norman wore a bowtie and cufflinks around his paws as he walked down the aisle! Kyle and Kaitlyn have a beautiful love for one another that is selfless and full of joy. It was a fabulous celebration!
