Weddings

My first e-mail about Sara + Jeremy’s wedding came from the bride’s little sister, Rebecca, whose beautiful Peabody Library wedding to Rick I photographed back in 2010. “You’ve done so many weddings, I doubt you remember (!), but we’ve always loved your photos,” she wrote. I laughed out loud. Not only did I remember Rebecca’s big day, I also … See More

Paula + David were married in a gorgeous little ceremony on a weekday afternoon in the beautiful gardens of The Tudor Place. It was my first time shooting on the grounds of the 201-year-old National Historic Landmark home in Georgetown and I could not have been more charmed by the place. Of course, it also helped to have such … See More

It feels like Kelsey, Chris + I have been e-mailing and chatting about their wedding for forever. So today, as I reformat memory cards and pack gear for their it’s-finally-here big day, I couldn’t resist looking back at and sharing a few favorites from their Baltimore engagement session last spring. I can’t wait to work with them again today … See More

Thank goodness for indoor atriums with pretty light and some greenery on hot, humid, rainy wedding days. And hooray for weddings that feel like mini-reunions. As I photographed guests at Sara + Jeremy’s wedding, I kept feeling like I recognized everyone. Then I remembered: About half the guests were likely in attendance at the wedding of Sara’s sister that … See More

Tracy + Rob’s big day was one of the most *fun* weddings that I’ve had the privilege of photographing. I knew the bride’s father, Carl, an attorney, from a previous life when I wrote about courts and crime and the death penalty for the Baltimore Sun newspaper. Back then, before we all had cameras in our phones, I almost … See More

Helen + Jeff were set up on their first date by his best friend, who hoped that finding Jeff a girlfriend in Baltimore might persuade the Philly native to relocate to Charm City and, correspondingly, spend more time with him. And it worked. Kind of. Jeff began visiting Baltimore regularly after his first sushi date with Helen. But, as … See More

A couple of runners jogged past. A water taxi docked nearby to let off and pick up more passengers. An office full of workers gathered at their floor-to-ceiling windows as they saw what was happening. Life in Baltimore trucked merrily along as Nina + Bryce exchanged vows and rings in the tiniest of tiny weddings on a recent Tuesday … See More

I met Tracy + Rob’s pup at their engagement session. So it seemed appropriate that her horse be included in their wedding, right? This truly was one of the most impressive entrances I’ve seen in 11 years of photographing weddings. In a heavy, floor-length, beaded, strapless gown and with no saddle whatsoever, Tracy rode her retired racehorse LJ to … See More

With the heat index well over 100 degrees every day this week and the humidity pressing down on us like a wet sponge, the crisp fall weather from Megan + Chris’s engagement session seems a distant memory. As I print schedules and reformat memory cards for their wedding today, I couldn’t resist looking back at and sharing a few … See More

Erin + Andrew’s wedding was positively lovely. With a ceremony in the historic Capitol Hill church of Saint Peter’s and a party to follow in the gorgeous Mayflower Hotel, it really couldn’t have been anything but beautiful. There were touches of pale pink and gray. There were little cycling details in a nod to the groom’s favorite hobby. And … See More
