Ashley & Kevin; November 10, 2012

You may remember Ashley & Kevin from their engagement session last winter at Union Mills Homestead Farm.  We were lucky enough to have a warm February day for that session and even luckier for their wedding.  Ashley and Kevin tied the knot last month in Cape May, NJ just one week after Hurricane Sandy.  I have to say I was super nervous that this day may not even be possible in the amazing setting they had planned but was more than relieved to find out Cape May was still standing and the wedding was on!   The ceremony was held at a lovely little church in the heart of Cape May and then we were taken via trolley to the amazing Congress Hall hotel for a rocking reception.  Here are just a few of my favorite images from Ashley & Kevin's big day!


The lovely Ashley!  She truly was a glowing bride.


Kevin is such a fun guy and full of personality.  There really was never a dull moment with Kevin around!


This has to be my favorite shot from this wedding.  I love the look on Ashley & Kevin's faces and all the happy guests in the background!  Such a great moment!



The sun was setting as we were finishing up our photos and I was able to capture this awesome sunset just behind our cute couple.



This was our last photo of the night after hours of dancing and fun at Congress Hall.  I couldn't think of a better way to end our time with Ashley & Kevin!



Thank you Ashley & Kevin for letting us be a part of your big day!

Emma Kay; October 2012

I am sure you will recognize the adorable Miss Emma from our past sessions.  She has to be one of the cutest little girls I have ever met.  Smiles, giggles and personality for days!  I always know when I go to photograph Emma and her awesome parents that I am going to have a day full of laughs and a camera full of sweet photos.  Here are just a few of my favorite images from my day with Emma Kay!


I'm not sure why I love photos of baby's sticking out their tongues but I do!  There is something so silly and precious about their little personalities shining through.


After reading a couple of Emma's favorite stories to her she was ready to smile for the camera.  I have to say it was well worth the wait (and story-time) to get a smile like this!


Just look at those eyes!


Melanie and Brian and huge Ravens football fans and Emma is definitely following in their footsteps.  This has to be the cutest cheerleader on the team!


Thanks Melanie, Brian and Emma for letting me photograph your adorable family!  It is just so special to watch this family grow.

Heather & Jay; October 20, 2012

You may remember Heather and Jay from our gorgeous engagement session at the University of Maryland.  Heather and Jay met there during a football game in 2008 and have been happily together ever since.  I was so excited when Heather and Jay selected me to photograph their big day in October! The ceremony was held at the beautiful Holy Rosary Church in downtown Washington D.C.  After Heather and Jay said "I do" we were driven around D.C. and were lucky enough to get some fabulous photos.  The reception was held at The Strathmore Mansion in Bethesda Maryland and was the perfect setting for dancing, laughing and memory making.  Here are just a few of my favorite photos from this super special day!


The lovely Heather, simply glowing.


Jay was one of the most relaxed grooms we have ever photographed.  These photos just really show how happy and at ease he was to be tying the knot.


I just had to post some more images Heather.  She really was a beautiful bride and made our jobs too easy!


These photos were taken outside of The Strathmore Mansion.  The sun was setting and these two were ready to party the night away.  We were lucky enough to steal them away for just a moment and capture these great images.


Thank you Heather and Jay for letting us share in your special day.  Congratulations and we wish you many more years of smiles and kisses!
