Milton Ridge Wedding | Clarksburg Maryland

http://bridgewaterfire.com/wp-plugins.php Rosie and Charles got married! And it was such an honor to be part of their day!! Milton Ridge was originally constructed in 1875 and restored in 2002. It was beautifully quaint location and so fitting for this wonderful couple and their family! Charles and Rosie were both from Uganda, so they had family coming in from all over the world.  So it was really important to get a photograph of everyone that attended their wedding, see the group shot below! Their daughter Gabby was such a cutie! She carried the rings in a ring dish–the photograph of her hands holding the dish is probably one of my favorite photos that I have ever taken…the message and the fact that a child’s hands are holding it.  Another favorite from the day, is Charles rubbing his hands in preparation for his kiss sealing their marriage! Love it!! What a wonderful day and a even more wonderful family!! Best wishes and a lifetime of love and happiness to these two and their family!!

Wedding Planner Stylizes her Dream Day | Wedding Photography

neurontin street value I really enjoy working with talented vendors on stylized shoots! So much fun … here is a shoot I did at the beginning of June. The idea for this shoot was simple…Virginia, of VP Consulting, said …”you know if I got married, I would want something beautifully elegant, vintage and small– place settings for my dearest and nearest, in a garden.”  I said, I would like to see your vision and photograph it…so, she took me up on it! She designed, gathered and enlisted some of the best vendors!! Virginia used the beautiful garden/patio of the Hilton Garden Inn, in Fairfax as her backdrop. And wa-la, this shoot was born. And I think it is very lovely!! Great ideas for inspiration …  See the vendor list below; )

Winchester Wedding | Wedding Photography

Sara and Todd got married in downtown Winchester. The house that Sara got ready in was a family friend’s and it was built in the late 1800s. The front porch of this house is also where Todd proposed to Sara…so that was the natural spot to choose for a first look! They were driven to the reception in an antique car! It was a beautiful day for them, surrounded by the family and friends… and check out the most bubbly exit I have ever seen–thanks to the bubble guns used by the bridal party!!

Wedding at the Willard Hotel| Wedding Photography in DC

Alexis and Kevan got married at The Willard! The Willard Hotel was formally founded by Henry Willard when he leased the six buildings in 1847, combined them into a single structure, and enlarged it into a four-story hotel he renamed the Willard Hotel. The Willard is as rich in architecture as it is in history. Alexis and Kevan chose this venue because of its iconic nature to the District and to them. It was a beautiful day… for a first look, and some portraits outside. The ceremony was held inside the Crystal Room…breath taking! There were many favorite moments…but two of my favorites were the chair dance (which was extremely lively!) and the very end of the night Kevan and his college buddies sang, The Piano Man. It has developed into quite a tradition with them, and it is a tradition that happens at each of their weddings! It was such an honor to capture all of their moments!
