Back in November, just before Thanksgiving, I got together with Sara & Bryce who will be getting married this coming September. We agreed to meet at the beautiful and scenic DelFosse Vineyards & Winery just west of Charlottesville. The fall color was luckily still hanging on, although this vineyard would be gorgeous any time of year! We did have a chilly but gorgeous late afternoon for their session. Hiking up the ridge and into the vineyards made for the best views. We had a fun time and the folks at the winery were ever so gracious. Although this couple is planning their wedding at Josephine Butler Parks Center in Washington, DC, DelFosse would make for an amazing location for a wedding! Not to mention their wine is fabulous - I took two bottles home with me. I look forward to planning with Sara and Bryce over these next several months and to photographing their wedding come September!

maryland wedding photographer: ashley+gray 06.18.11
earlier this winter, i was commissioned to be a second photographer for taisie berkeley photography at a wedding, held in charlotte. when she asked me if i'd like to join her for another wedding in june, i was happy to have the date opened and delighted to have another opportunity to work alongside taisie again.
so when the time finally came for ashley & gray's wedding, i headed north and made a long weekend of it. i was able to visit friends and family on my way up and back, which was a real treat! it was also fun spending some time with taisie at her place in georgetown, my favorite area of the nation's capitol, and where my father once lived.
the day of the wedding, taisie and i headed to baltimore and we first arrived at ashley's childhood home. there we documented the women preparing and then family photographs in the garden, before heading on to the church. ashley and gray were married in a late afternoon ceremony, which was in a beautiful historic church in downtown baltimore.

the evening reception took place on gibson island at the gibson island club, about thirty minutes from downtown baltimore. the newlyweds, along with their guests took trollies to the island and it was fun to get the arrival shots. cocktails were served out on the patio, with a view of the gorgeous chesapeake bay, while taisie and i finished up some of the wedding party photos. naturally, we utilized the scenic bay as a backdrop. and i loved how the couple "played" a game of lacrosse for a few photo ops. both were on the team at yale, where they met.
dinner was served, the cake was cut, and dancing followed to an amazing band, the new monopoly, which went well into the night. the couple departed in a sea of sparklers with a vintage getaway car waiting for them at the end of the line of guests wishing them well. it was a fabulous party, indeed!
ceremony: holy cross church
flowers: clare stewart

tara + harold - a wedding in washington, dc
It's hard to believe that our last wedding of the season was a little over a month ago and I just now have the opportunity to look through the photos and get some editing done! Tara and Harold's wedding was held on October 27th in Washington, DC at the Notre Dame Chapel at Trinity College. It's been a few years since I've photographed any weddings in DC and it was a fun trip up that way again. Tara and Harold's reception was held at the Athenaeum in nearby Old Town Alexandria. A wonderful venue for anyone getting married in the DC area. As a child I always loved visiting my dad and stepmother in Old Town and being back in that area brought back many fond memories. Tara and Harold were such a nice couple, very fun and easy going---I've never seen anyone as relaxed as they were on their wedding day. I'm so thrilled that they found us via a referral from another couple--- thanks to our many clients who have recommended us! We are really looking forward to 2008! So far, we have weddings booked in North Carolina, Virginia, and Florida... and yes, we travel!
