We had a great time at Sarah and Nate’s wedding at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t cooperative, but the wedding was beautiful nonetheless. We were able to get outside for a few portraits on the beach. The reception was a great party with some great dancing!

Congrats Sarah and Nate!!

Meredith and Chris had a beautiful wedding at the InterContinental Harbor Court hotel in Baltimore. They were totally laid-back (must be a Florida thing!) and everyone was having a great time. Thanks to Marcella Kligman for helping out and getting some great shots of the guys.

Heather and Mark enjoyed a wonderful day for their wedding at the Bethesda Marriott at Pooks Hill. There was so much love surrounding these two from family and friends. Oh, and some really cute kids! As soon as Mark and Heather entered the cocktail hour, there was a line of nieces and nephews wanting Mark to flip them. He was a gamer! The reception was super energetic thanks to the wedding band Escapade! I think everyone was on the dance floor most of the night.

Congrats Heather and Mark! Thanks for having us at your awesome wedding.

I’ve seen hundreds of weddings over the last six years, so sometimes it surprises me when I’m blown away by a wedding. Each wedding I photograph is special and unique in its own ways, but sometimes everything just comes together so perfectly. Jessica’s and Michael’s wedding was one of those really memorable ones for me. The light was great at the right times, the guests were really enjoying themselves, the venue looked beautiful, the band was amazing, the toasts were funny and emotional, and there was just an incredible love that filled the room. Of course, most importantly, Jessica and Michael were having a great time and their smiles were infectious.

I loved how they worked with coordinator Lorin Kotz Kline to transform the reception area of the 1840s Ballroom. They opted to cover a mirrored wall with drapes and create a gallery-like atmosphere with various framed art and mirrors, as well as actual silhouettes of the couples’ faces, which they also used as elements for other details (the candy bar, etc.). It was such a creative way to achieve the look they wanted!

Jessica and Michael, thank you for trusting us with your special day. It was truly an honor!
