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 magical day to be married in Ocean City, MD. We started things off at the Double Tree by Hilton for getting ready images and a first look with the bride’s dad in the getting ready suite. Olivia was stunning in her gown and a decision was made to move the beach wedding inside to seek cover from the high winds we were experiencing that day. Olivia and Jalen were married in Harrison’s overlooking Ocean City’d iconic Boardwalk followed by family portraits inside and then portraits of the two of them and their bridal party outside. It was a perfect day on the beach save for the wind, the skies were gorgeous and lighting soft for photos before we went back into the venue for a big celebration. Olivia & Jalen had one of the most unique entry announcements I have ever seen with their bridal party acting as their true “squad” being announced in one at a time. The party kicked off with dancing, libations and good food before settling into the end of the night with an exit on the boardwalk. Congratulations Olivia & Jalen, we wish you a lifetime of happiness!

Oh man what a pretty day! Denise & Wayne were just the sweetest couple when I met them for their engagement photos last year and I knew that their wedding would be a blast. The couple got ready at the Dunes Manor Hotel and little Miss Sky stole the show in her pearl collar. We took off to Northside Park for some really fun photos before heading back to the venue at the start of the ceremony. Denise & Wayne exchanged vows overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on the beach and headed back up to the ballroom for some dancing and drinks. My favorite part of the evening was when they cut their cake to the song “Mudshovel”, truly a unique moment and their musical selection was quite amazing and true to their style. Congratulations Wayne & Denise, it was a blessing to spend the day with you and we wish you a lifetime of happiness!

Kurt & Lisa were married on the veranda of the Dunes Manor Hotel on a beautiful Saturday afternoon in September. After postponing their large celebration from December due to Covid the couple met with family and friends for an outdoor ceremony followed by a big party in the hotel’s ballroom.

I love a Dunes Manor Wedding and this beautiful celebration was held on a perfect August evening. The couple exchanged vows on the veranda and strategically placed the shutters to block out some of the boardwalk from behind them. Guests gathered for cocktails and hors d’oeuvres as we finished up portraits and carried the party into the ballroom. DJ Greg lit up the evening with some amazing jams and a super fun photobooth that I think everyone hit at least a few times. Congratulations Michael & Sherry, it was amazing to spend the day with you and we wish you a lifetime of happiness!

What a beautiful celebration at Lighthouse Sound in Bishopville, MD. The threat off rain hung through most of the day but just before ceremony time we got a clear 40min window for the exchange of vows under the gazebo before retreating for cover from the falling drops at the end. The couple celebrated with their closest friends and family and enjoyed much dancing with DJ Bump in the dining hall. Congratulations Kenny & Wendy, we wish you a lifetime of happiness.

Justin & Carolyn were married at a beautiful venue nestled right in the Ocean Pines Community. We started the day getting ready in the bride and groom suite before heading out to the deck for the wedding ceremony. The bride walked down the aisle with her father and daughter before meeting the groom at the altar. The couple exchanged vows with Alison of Alison to the Altar officiating and included a sand ceremony into their wedding ceremony. Guests were treated to Ocean Pines Yacht Club appetizers and dishes while we finished up with some family and wedding portraits before kicking the party off up stairs with DJ Tonez. Just in & Carolyn enjoyed an evening of dancing, good food, music, a cake smash and dessert bar and finished out with even more dancing.
Congratulations Justin & Carolyn, we wish you a lifetime of happiness!

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!

Joaquin couldn't take the glory out of this party, that is for sure! After a week of anticipating a possible hurricane striking the shore, this wedding went off with much to celebrate at the Grand Hotel in Ocean City, MD. The ceremony was moved inside and the chairs looked beautiful as they lined the middle of the reception hall. Guests were moved to a Garden Bar where preparations could begin for the reception once cocktail hour concluded. Jim Baker for Steve Moody Entertainment rocked the house and kept the party going strong, everyone had a great time at what would be a very memorable time in Ocean City for all!

What an amazing day! A gorgeous sunset wedding on the beach in the Ocean City Inlet followed by a rocking out reception at Harrison's Harborwatch with Big Bang Baby. The groom surprised his bride with one of her favorite bands ever playing at their reception, her look when she saw them for the first time was priceless. They planned a very cool rendition of Thinking Out Loud for their first song and kept the party going strong all night with her favorite hits. We snuck away for a few evening shots after nightfall, it was a very fun wedding to be apart of!
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!
