Near the end of October, I found myself in Michigan for my very first Michigan wedding. The colors were at peak beauty, the sun was shining, and the day was overall quite glorious. Sarah and Jacob actually met at a wedding a few years ago and their love story has God’s hand written all over […]

You guys. This engagement session was absolutely amazing. Seriously. First of all, we had the most dreamy sunrise golden hour light. Listen, I’m a huge fan of sunset golden hour, however, there is something different and more ethereal about the sunrise golden hour. It’s usually less intense, more gentle, and honestly just so dang romantic. […]

When two librarian book lovers get married, there has to be a library involved somehow, and if you are extra creative, the Dewey Decimal System makes the perfect unique seating chart. Which is precisely what Liz and Kris did. Liz and Kris met while working at the Library of Congress in DC and share a […]

And almost a decade after God first introduced them to each other, on the first Saturday of October, Megan and Kevin finally became husband and wife.

Sara and Brandon’s wedding on the last day of September was a stunning Catholic wedding with the most elegent reception in a historic mansion in downtown Baltimore. Having met when they were students at John Hopkins University, it was only fitting that Sara and Brandon chose to be married in the same city that brought […]

At the end of September Elizabeth & Rafael were married in downtown Pittsburgh, the city that had brought them together. Since I travel for most of my weddings, it’s very rare for me to shoot in the same place twice in a row but my first two weddings back after the Camino just so happened […]

It might have rained last Saturday (despite not being called for in the forecast) but that didn’t make a difference in the joy that radiated through Teresa and Andrew on their wedding day.

Our last wedding of June was an absolutely stunning day in Waterbury Connecticut with Sammy and Will. Sammy & Will met at Franciscan University and share a mutual deep love for Christ and the Catholic Church. This was so clearly evident on their wedding day from every aspect of their Nuptial Mass, to the Catholic […]

This stunning Northern Virginia wedding was such a dream! The day started off at Courtney’s childhood home where she and her bridesmaids were getting ready. Courtney was so relaxed and joyful and I knew from the first few minutes that the rest of the day was going to be wonderful. As I was capturing Courtney’s […]

If I had to describe Marykate & Ross’s wedding in just a few words I’d say picture this: sweeping mountain views, the most down-to-earth, genuine, and just plain cool two people madly in love with each other, a beautiful Byzantine ceremony steeped in tradition, and a posse of children running, climbing, dancing, and playing having […]

Their wedding day was a beautiful reflection of their love for one another, for God, and for their families and friends. Both of them exude kindness and generosity and it’s hard not to smile when you are around them. […]
