It was a windy but beautiful fall wedding day for Erin & Alex who exchanged their vows at the Eastern Shore’s beautiful Lighthouse Sound Venue. The couple got ready at the venue before doing a first look on the back patio and heading out on the golf carts for portraits. Bleached Butterfly put together some very ornate decor for their tables and centerpieces. Sage green accented the room and looked just dreamy against the ocean city skyline. The day went off without a hitch and these two celebrated with their close friends and family in style. Congratulations Alex & Erin, we wish you a lifetime of happiness!

What a fun wedding!  The couple got married in the middle of downtown Salisbury Plaza and it was a gorgeous afternoon.  After getting ready in much of the Salisbury Plaza we made our way out between raindrops to grab some quick portraits before heading to the ceremony.  When she started to walk down the aisle her sweet little girl came running back towards her and back up front, it was incredibly touching and not a dry eye was seen around.  After the ceremony and fun portraits done around the plaza we went upstairs to the Delmarvelous Occasions Reception hall for a fun evening of dancing, drinks and cake and ending with a few night portraits around the area.  Congratulations Mike & Lindsay, thank you so much for having me be a part of your special day!

What a crazy afternoon of every kind of weather imaginable.  After more than two straight weeks of rain on the Eastern Shore everyone's eyes were on the skies on the day of May 14th.  The bride got ready in the Riviera Suite at the Edge at Fager's Island.  The suite was one of the most gorgeous places in town, lots of vaulted windows and natural light pouring into the room!  The water views were pretty sweet too.

When we got to the Golden Sands the place was set up and ready for a perfect intimate ceremony right on the sand but away from wandering tourists from crossing the path of my lens behind them.  The air was a little crisp but it felt good against the warm sun peaking around the sides of the building.  Once the I Do's were said we walked down to the beach for some fun portraits and made it into the reception hall just in time for the skies to open up and fall down.  High winds picked up and moved the arbor onto it's side and flipped chairs while we were in the safety of the building above.  Once the storm passed the most beautiful of sunsets complete with a double rainbow shadowed around the building, it was incredible.  The couple danced the night away with friends and family to the entertainment stylings of Steve Moody who kept everyone on their feet.  What a great night, congratulations Sean & Megan, I was so happy to be a part of your special day!

What an incredible wedding!  I was excited to work with this fun couple from our first conversation on the phone.  When I arrived up to the ceremony site and saw the hay bales set up for seating and cool floral decor and burlap, I swooned for what was to come.  This beautiful bride cried so many happy tears on her wedding day and I was so excited to see such a happy and in love couple just ready to spend the rest of their lives together.  We shared a fun evening and dreamy sunset together and I learned more and more about the two of them as the night went on and just adored them even more the more I learned.  Congratulations to the two of you, I hope your life together is just magical because the love you shared with friends and family on your wedding day certainly was!

Jonathan & Jamie are Married - Fenwick Inn, Peaky's | Ocean City, MD

What an incredible afternoon wedding for Jamie and Jonathan.  After torrential rains for more than two days persisted in Ocean City, the ceremony was moved inside and it turned out to be gorgeous on the top floor of the Fenwick Inn Hotel.  Jamie got ready in the honeymoon suite and that overlooked Coastal Highway and Ocean City beaches.  The lighting was perfection that poured into the hotel room for her hair and make up.  The ceremony was on one side of the venue with white folding chairs and a beautiful decorated arbor and the reception took place not he other side of the hall and was gorgeous with white satin covers on the chairs and hot pink accents to match her bridesmaid's dresses and decor.  While the rain did change up our plans it sure added a nice touch to their couples portraits on the balcony overlooking the nightlife lights of Ocean City.  Congratulations Jonathan & Jamie, we wish you all the best!
