Weddings

Kristen and Brett are a very well loved couple- it was a theme that felt ever present during their Lodge at Little Seneca Creek wedding. At every point, their friends and family would throw their arms around them (yay for vaccinated weddings!) and squeeze them. Many times as they broke away, there would be happy […]

I know that this is the absolute last piece of advice any couples wants right now but that might be why it’s the advice worth giving. As of writing this (early August) DC has recently reinstated their mask mandate. Anne Arundel county has reinstated it for government buildings. Other counties are debating currently. As of […]

Alex and Logans wedding put all vendor relationships to the test. In fact they are practically the case study of why it is so important to trust the people you hire. The forecast for the day included the dreaded R word- rain. However it called for off an on showers. No biggie. I got the […]

My friend Alexandra sent me a message asking if I had an August date open for a wedding. Her friends Laura and Phil were returning to Maryland to get married and needed a photographer. She promised “You’re going to like them. They are really cool and sweet.” That was probably the most accurate description of […]

I’ve lived in Maryland almost my whole life so my favorite thing is when couples take me to places I haven’t been. When you’re in Annapolis, looking at the water you’ll notice 3 larger metal towers – that is the park we went to. Brent runs through the park all the time and it has […]

I’ll admit we got off to a rough foot. For the first time ever, we showed up to our chosen location and it was closed. We both checked the hours but for whatever reason-gates were locked. This is why I schedule extra time in our sessions. We did some quick googling in a parking lot […]

Katie and Mick are impressive people. They planned a wedding during a pandemic while simultaneously planning a move to England- yes the country across the Atlantic. This meant their wedding was also a farewell party. And oh boy was it a party. But let’s backup. I really loved how family oriented this wedding was. Katie […]

Jenna and Forrest’s Jerusalem Mill’s Engagement session was soft and romantic and tail wagging fun! Jenna and I talked through many different options for their session. We talked through outfits but in the end they decided they wanted to have their session earlier as opposed to later. They are getting married next October so I […]

A leitmotif or leitmotiv is a short, recurring musical phrase associated with a particular person, place, or idea. Citation I first hear about leitmotifs while watching some behind-the-scenes features on Inside Out (I love Pixar movies) a week before Kristen and Brett’s session. The director was talking about the leitmotif they wrote for when happy memories are created, and the […]
