Steve's Executive Portraits

One of my former wedding clients contacted me again this year for updated business portraits for his upcoming magazine creation. I was so happy to work with him again, and really excited for the images that I made at Antrim in Taneytown, MD. Steve is the publisher of "The Beverage Journal, Inc." and it was only fitting that we took photos in the wine cellar to go along with the theme. Antrim was a perfect location, and the staff was so helpful to us while we were working.
It's always wonderful to work with clients multiple times, and I'm so happy Steve contacted me again for some new images.

Kyle's Senior Portraits

Despite one of the coldest and windiest days of the year, Kyle rocked his senior portrait session! In 2010, I photographed his sister, Kelsey's senior portraits on their family farm, and this time, it was Kyle's turn to show off his personality and hobbies - I think he had the most fun at the end when we got out his hunting gear & razor four wheeler! He picked out the perfect outfits, and I was so happy to photograph another sibling in a wonderful family. Kyle - I hope you had fun! And thanks again for letting me capture this fun time in your high school experience!

Jessica & Dave's Wedding

The morning of Jessica and Dave's wedding began with gorgeous cloudy skies and continued throughout the evening for a perfect setting for a backyard reception complete with the perfect white tent, hundreds of pumpkins, and mums galore on her Aunt and Uncle's beautiful property.

I had the talented Erica Hamilton second shooting for me, and along with my mom, we came up with some of the most beautiful photos I've ever seen. I owe the bridal party a great big thank you for hanging in with us while we set up an amazing bridal party portrait in the same rocks where we took Jessica & Dave's engagement session. It was definitely worth the work for a gorgeous photo! 

Jessica had a stunning gown, and as her mom, sister, and her put on the finishing touches, she glowed with excitement to marry her best friend at his childhood church just a few miles away. I loved the bridesmaid dresses and how the colors of the flowers popped against the yellow and orange fall leaves on the trees. They left no detail out in the planning of the perfect wedding day. Dave's brother and best man, Matt, had a hawk fly in to deliver his speech. Jessica & her girls choreographed  a dance to "Call Me Maybe" that was hilarious and had everyone up on their feet taking photos and watching Dave's reaction.

I'm so excited to share some highlights from this very special wedding day. Congratulations Jessica & Dave! I hope you had an amazing time in Moorea and I hope you love these images!!!

Brooke's Senior Portraits

It was a perfect morning last Sunday for Brooke's senior portraits. We started in the backyard of her home with some beautiful outfits and great backgrounds. I had asked her mom to pick out an urban spot for us to take some of her ballet photos, and she did not disappoint with finding the perfect location! Brooke is an extremely talented ballerina where she attends school at the Baltimore School for the Arts. I was so excited to show her beauty and elegance. They are some of my favorite images of all time!
Brooke - thank you for being such an amazing model! I hope you love your photos, and I can't wait to share the rest of the image with you!
