Best of Weddings 2014

I just love being a wedding photographer and I truly cannot believe that this is my job… Seriously! I get paid to do something I absolutely love, work with people I adore, & create images that they will pass on to their children and grandchildren. It isn’t easy in the least and working nearly every weekend from April through November can be exhausting… but I truly couldn’t see myself doing anything else!

One of the most incredible parts of my job is getting to work with so many extraordinary couples each year. And being a part of someone’s life on such a monumental day brings with it an incredible amount of joy! It also makes ‘End of the Year Recaps’ that much more exciting and sentimental… Looking back through these images brought so many amazing memories and I’m so grateful to have captured each and every one of my 2014 couples!

To My Amazing 2014 Couples: Thank you for giving me the opportunity to document this special time in your lives. From the snow in Washington DC to the sandy beaches of Jamaica, you brought me all over the East Coast (and beyond) to do what I love most. I’m so incredibly grateful and so humbled that I get to bring you along as I chase after this crazy dream of mine. Thank you for trusting me to be your wedding photographer. I love you all, so much!

To My Amazing 2015 Couples: Can you believe it’s almost here!? I’m so excited to be a part of your wedding in 2015 and to capture the laughter + tears of your big day! Thank you for being a Natalie Franke Bride (or groom!) and get ready for one of the greatest of life’s adventures. Marriage is absolutely amazing… and your wedding day is only the beginning!

Oh, and just incase you thought that this was my last “Best Of” post… You’re in for a huge treat tomorrow! It’s a GIANT Details Recap that features bouquets to die for and rings that still leave me breathless! I’m so excited to share more with you all again tomorrow!
