Such a cherished afternoon with them both – despite the rainy conditions on this Sunday afternoon, we captured these images that I am so proud of. They both are truly inspiring.

What an incredible story Daniela and Michael have. This wedding has been a highlight of my summer season. Their families were so warm and welcoming, I felt right at home from the moment I arrived. This being my first time in Boston, I believe I received one of the best overviews of the city I could have asked for in those few short days! The wedding was held in Marblehead, an island outside the city. The following day we shot in multiple locations for a private portrait session with Daniela and Michael – including the lovely and known Walden Pond in Lynn. They are now settling into their new home in the UK – such a rich hertiage they have, and I was beyond blessed to be a part of it and documenting such an inspiring and life-changing day for them both. I know lasting friendships will come from my time with these lovely folk.

This is one of the longer posts I’ve done of a wedding thus far – so many treasured moments to share. A post to follow of our portrait shoot that Sunday afternoon! Enjoy.

Early January, I enjoyed photographing this young, beautiful couple in Charleston, West Virginia. Looking forward to their tucked away mountain wedding at the end of May!

What a pleasure it was being a part of this incredible wedding! Surrounded by mountains, farmland and family, the entire day flowed so effortlessly. The bride and groom are both from Baltimore and decided to host their wedding at the family farm. Old photographs lined the walls inside the house of other weddings and festivities held their years before. It felt like home immediately, and how could I complain when I fresh glass of mint sweet tea was handed to me when I walked in the door? Enjoy viewing a few favorites of mine.

Today I had the amazing pleasure to shoot bride-to-be Sarah… only getting married in 2 weeks! Can’t wait to shoot her and Keith’s wedding. It’ll be beautiful, no doubt : )

Ashley assisted me today — so much fun. We made it before the thunderstorms came.

So many favorites, as you can tell.
