On the last weekend of October, on a gloriously sunny and warm day, Anna and James became husband and wife. The fall colors were in their final peak display and Anna and James’ terracotta and navy color palette perfectly complimented the fall colors they were surrounded by. We started the day off with all the […]

When Teresa and Andrew started talking to me about what they were hoping for their engagement session, they both said that their ideal location was a very outdoorsy/wooded area during peak fall colors. I suggested Raccoon Creek State Park, which was halfway between us and always a stunning location choice in the fall. I’ve shot […]

At the end of September, as I was driving back across Pennslyvania from a wedding, I was able to stop in Harrisburg and meet Sara & Brandon for their engagement session. These two got up and drove three hours from NJ to meet me here and despite the rainy forecast, we went ahead with their […]

I’m a few weeks behind on blogging weddings and I’m so happy to finally get to share this STUNNING Florida wedding with you all! A few weeks ago, I flew down to Jacksonville, FL to photograph Patricia and Justin’s glorious wedding. Patricia went to Franciscan University with me, and it was fun reconnecting with her […]

This classy Northern Virginia wedding was the epitome of fall perfection. From the changing colors, the rolling vineyards, the crisp weather, the colors and decor, and everything in between, it was a glorious October wedding. I started the day off with Madelyn and the girls at the cutest little airbnb just a few minutes down […]

My younger brother is officially MARRIED! And I was honored to play the role of bridesmaid and photographer with the amazing help of my dear friend Laura. I’ve photographed over 100 weddings at this point, and quite a few have been for cousins and close friends, but this was my very first sibling to get […]

Dakota said as soon as she found my Instagram account, she knew she had to have me photograph her wedding, and as soon as I saw all the colors and details for her wedding, it was clear why! We have a very similar love for natural elements and earthy tones and her and John’s style […]

When Samantha and Will asked to do their session along Skyline Drive, I was envisioning sunshine and beautiful mountain top views. We didn’t have the option of rescheduling and so when I saw rain was on the forecast, I quickly reassured Samantha and WIll that they would get amazing photos no matter what the weather […]

The mountains, color scheme, flowers, the hint of fall on the air, all of it made for the most beautiful wedding day for Marin and Max. These two met at Franciscan University through mutual friends and graduated this past spring. They love their families and friends fiercely and wanted their wedding to be special and […]

It’s officially September which means it’s FALL and my favorite time of year again! Seriously, I know it’s the basic white girl thing to love all things fall but I seriously do! I always have and I probably always will. There’s something about the muted fall colors, the transition into cooler weather, all the cozy […]

When Brittany first reached out to me earlier this year and told me her wedding was in Youngstown, Ohio at Stambaugh Auditorium, I was super excited. Brittany told me that she and Dave chose Stambaugh to be their ceremony venue because they loved the building’s architecture and beauty; and my goodness, it made for the […]

If you pause and envision a summer wildflower wedding with golden yellows and blush tones, delicate floral lace, a beautiful flower crown, warm sunshine, little ones running around in the grass, lots of laughter and good conversations, and a beaming bride and groom, you will have just pictured Brianna & Tim’s wedding. Brianna & Tim’s […]

This blog post is LONG overdue but hopefully so worth the wait! At the beginning of July, I flew down to the great state of Texas (for the first time which was so fun) to photograph Maria & Bence’s wedding at the Lost Mission in the Texas Hill Country just outside of San Antonio. As […]

I first met Priscilla and William for their engagement session last September. I was instantly struck by how sweet and genuine these two are. They met through Catholic Match and quickly fell for one another and were soon frequently making trips between CT and Ohio to visit one another. And finally, after waiting and praying […]

On an unusually chilly Saturday in June, Megan walked down the aisle of her home parish, Immaculate Conception, with one arm on her father and her other arm holding on to her brightly colored bouquet. Her shoes somehow perfectly matched her flowers and trailing behind her was an exquisite cathedral veil. At the end of […]
