This weekend was the first that officially felt like fall! A chill in the air, the trees just starting to turn, and gorgeous weather in the afternoons! It was truly an incredible few days! I started the weekend with Deanna & Matt’s Engagement Session in downtown Annapolis, spent Saturday with Emily & Stephen at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club, and ended on Sunday with home renovations + DIYs in preparation for a special little upcoming feature next month! (Ah! Dying to share more on that soon!)

And in just a few days, I’ll be headed up to Pennsylvania for a wedding + engagement session before zipping back to celebrate Huey’s Birthday with a portrait session of our very own! Hopefully the trees will be showing us even more color in the next few days! This is truly my favorite time of year!
Deanna & Matt’s Engagement | Annapolis, Maryland



Oh, and I can’t sneak peek their session without their puppy – Murphy! Ahh! LOVE!

Deanna and Matt are truly an extraordinary couple! Matt is an officer in the Navy and Deanna is a news anchor based in Virginia! Add in their adorable golden retriever puppy, Murphy, and you have an engagement session for the record books! I can’t wait to share more of these two on the blog – Thursday!
Emily & Stephen’s Wedding | Chesapeake Bay Beach Club




On Saturday morning, we woke up to rain drops and storm clouds that quickly gave way into a gorgeous evening by the Chesapeake! Emily and Stephen tied the knot in an absolutely beautiful ceremony overlooking the setting sun and the Bay Bridge! I can’t even express in words how incredible this entire wedding day was! I simply adore these two!
And Saturday marked my 28th Wedding of the Year (wow!), with four more to go from Pennsylvania to Jamaica before December’s through! Add in a two week trip to Europe, a dozen or so portrait sessions, and a Workshop… and it’s easy to say that things won’t be slow around here for a while!
Have an amazing Monday, friends! Pass the pumpkin spice… It finally feels like October!
