Eastern Shore weddings are great. There is so much natural beauty surrounding the special day. I had never worked at Matapeake State Park before and I have to say I was impressed! Since i shot this wedding, I’ve taken two families there for portraits…there are so many different parts to the ground. It is gorgeous. It is smack dab in between the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club and Silver Swan. It is a more casual atmosphere but Shaina and Jeff created elegance with the space. They were a great couple who truly enjoyed every every moment of their wedding day. A big shout out to Joanna from Amie Decker Beauty, she did an amazing job with the make up. Beat2Beat kept the dance floor going with some great music. Congratulations to Shaina and Jeff!

Merri and Ryan got married! They got married on the hottest day of the summer but that didn’t stop them from enjoying the day! It was one of our favorite weddings because it included so many of our favorite spots in and around Annapolis. We started with pre-ceremony photos at the Loews Hotel and then headed to the ceremony at St. Mary’s in historic downtown Annapolis. Wow, do I love that church and it is not because I am parishioner there. It is because it is such a gorgeous church with the star painted ceilings, elaborate alter and grand columns! After the ceremony, Merri and Ryan wanted to have some fun in downtown Annapolis so we hit the dock and did some side streets as well. After we all had enough heat, we got in our cool cars and headed over the bay bridge to another one of our favorite spots…The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. As always, the CBBC staff rocked it out. The room looked gorgeous and nothing missed a beat. We were grateful for the beautiful sunset and made sure to capture a few romantic shots for Merri and Ryan to remember. Beautiful couple and a beautiful day!

Jessica and Jeff were such a pleasure to work with on their special day. There relationship is a special one and I was honored to be capturing all the moments. The ceremony was at the most beautiful Catholic Church, “Jesus the Good Shepherd”, in Owings, Maryland. I have never seen such a beautiful church with the white stone, archways and open space. I always do some formal portraits at the ceremony location but this time I spent extra time because it was so gorgeous! Little did I know I was going to an amazing reception location as well! I had never shot at the Old South Country Club before and I am sure glad I got a chance. It is such a charming place with rolling farmland surrounding it (a photographer’s dream spot!). My DeeJay rocked the reception and I don’t know who did the flowers…but wow! Overall, great wedding. I am glad that I met Jessica and Jeff and I wish them tons of happiness in the future.

This was definitely a hot wedding and I mean the temperature and the dance floor! We started off at the Tremont Plaza Hotel with Krista and the girls getting ready and then did a reveal with Steve so we could take the majority of the photos before the ceremony. We braved the heat and knocked out a bunch of B-More photography up on Federal Hill before heading to St.Alphonsus Church. The Tremont Grand’s Corinthian room looked amazing and elegant. Fleur De Lis created gorgeous flower arrangements and Sugar Bakers did the cake. It was a dancing crowd all night and the couple loved their music. Hence why they had one of the best DJ’s in town, Jason Wallace from Absolute Entertainment (they have a stable of great DJ’s ). Jason provided a great vibe for the room and we were able to get some fun dancing photos. I do believe I saw some fist pumping! Great wedding, thanks Krista and Steve for letting us be a part of the fun day!

Jaclyn and Kyle had my favorite kind of wedding day … ‘all about Annapolis’. You can’t get more Annapolis when you wed at the USNA and have your reception at the Marriott Waterfront in the heart of it all! I have said it before and I will say it again, the Naval Academy campus is one of my favorite places to photograph a newly wed couple. There are so many great spots that it never gets old! Kyle and the other officers were great to work with. They really liked to have fun which makes my job more fun. Jaclyn looked gorgeous and I loved her bright blue shoes which showed off her personality! The Marriott staff is great! If you are looking for a place that has a charming waterfront, great photograph opportunities and a staff that knows what they are doing, check out the Marriott waterfront…they rock!! Congratulations to Jaclyn and Kyle … enjoy married life

I really enjoyed photographing Julie and Bryan’s wedding in gorgeous Mt. Vernon. The couple was so easy-going and the event was just plain fun. After getting some cool groomsmen photos out on the square, the guys were off to St.Ignatius. One block off the square, this amazing church has great light and always good for photos. Then we had some fun photographing the bridal party on the square and were able to get some romantic photos of the couple. With the formals out of the way, we walked to one of my favorite places for a wedding, the Engineer’s Club. With all the beautiful dark wood, great open spaces and spiraling wood staircase, the Engineer’s Club is one of the most elegant spots to host a wedding.Madeline from MLC Designs did an amazing job with all the Programs/Menus/Place Cards etc and added more sophistication to this grand event.

Anguel and Nataliya are both originally from Bulgaria and are planning a beautiful wedding back in their home country for 2011. But for now, they decided to make it official here in the States, and wanted some photos down in Annapolis. They were such a cool couple and we really hit off. We got some shots that really show off Annapolis, but also the love these two have for each other. Who knows, maybe we’ll have some Bulgarian wedding photos to blog about for next year!

Katy and Matthew’s wedding was truly a Chesapeake Bay wedding with events on both sides of the bay. We started off at Katy’s parents’ home in Grasonville and got some stunning photos on the dock across from their house. As we were finishing the photography with the expansive bay as the background, a jet ski went by and he waved. It was one of the family friends zooming home to get dressed for the event. Then we were off to the other side of the bay for the ceremony, and the beautiful reception at Celebrations at the Bay. This facility has amazing views of the Chesapeake Bay and of course a great dock for more photography. The crew is so helpful and friendly everyone feels welcomed. Katy and Matthew enjoyed the evening with their friends and family and the reception went bumping into the night.

It was great to be involved with another big Mitchell family event. We photographed Becky’s sisters wedding a couple years ago and now it was Becky’s big day! What a great family. They are kind, funny and warm. We are so glad they enjoyed their first experience that they wanted to use our services again. The entire event was at the Baltimore Museum of Art and we were able to use all aspects of the facility to get some amazing photos. Some of Tope’s relatives flew in from Nigeria to attend the wedding and added a cultural flair with their colorful and traditional African attire. You could really see the love Becky and Tope have for each other with their laughter, smiles and tears.We want to congratulate them and wish them all the happiness for years to come!
