This weekend marked my first wedding of the year and the start of spring wedding season! After a few weeks since my last wedding in December, I’ve been excitedly awaiting the start of my busiest year yet! I am so excited to document wedding days from Annapolis to Jamaica in 2014 – and it all started on Saturday!
The Adventure Begins…

I absolutely and whole-heartedly love being a wedding photographer. Every weekend I have the honor of capturing some of the most precious moments in a person’s life. And amidst the shimmer of details and rush of traditions, I experience the emotion and vows of commitment focussed on creating a marriage more beautiful than any wedding day could ever be. And this fills my heart with joy!
This weekend I had the incredible privilege of photographing Annabelle & Scott’s Wedding at the Baltimore Museum of Industry! I can’t wait to share this gorgeous day with all of you on the blog this week – For now, just a little sneak peek to hold you over!
And this was my first attempt at night portraits in the rain! I can’t wait to show you more and I’m so grateful that Annabelle & Scott trusted me to create something truly beautiful on a cold rainy evening! Running out in the rain? So very worth it!

Beautiful, as always! I’m usually not a fan of nighttime portraits, but you are making me believe it’s moreso due to technique because these are breathtaking!!!! 🙂
