This weekend was absolutely amazing and I spent most of it on Maryland’s gorgeous Eastern Shore! Mid-week, I photographed an editorial shoot for What’s Up? Weddings with a Kate Spade theme that took my breath away! I was allowed to sneak peek a few images to Instagram, but the professional photographs stay under wraps until the next issue!
Ahh! I have no idea how I’m going to make it that long! This shoot was truly incredible! And somewhere over the past few days I caught a bad cold (who gets a cold in August?) – but managed to make it through the weekend with the amazing support of my team and a couple who you’re going to fall in love with!
On Saturday, I had the incredible honor of photographing Kim and Andrew’s Wedding at The Oaks Waterfront Inn outside of St. Michaels! I have adored these two ever since their sweet Rehoboth Beach Engagement Session last autumn! If you think the sneak peek is pretty… just wait until you see their full blog post on Wednesday!
Yesterday was a big workshop prep day and I picked up my dear friend Anna from the airport in the afternoon! I’m so unbelievably grateful that she flew all the way up from Georgia to help us and be a part of this giant next step in my business!
And that leads me into today – where I’ll be spending the next twelve(+) hours with twelve truly remarkable photographers at the Historic Kent Manor Inn! The Workshop has been in the making for a long time and we have put so much work into our presentations and so much thought into the experience.
We have a list a mile long of people that we need to thank for making it happen and you can look forward to that in my Workshop Recap! For now, say a little prayer that my voice holds out and that we have good weather all day! Ah!

We’ll be live Tweeting & Instagramming throughout the entire day using the hashtag  #baysideworkshop
