Angela and LaDonna decided to have a Viking themed microwedding at Rocky Gap State Park where they met in Western Maryland with their lesbian camping group. They were surrounded by all of their friends and their children, They decided to do an elemental themed ceremony around a giant fire pit once the sun had set. So we worked in reverse, starting with couples photos, then dinner, then once the sun set the ceremony began.

Winchester, VA Elopement | Virginia Elopement | VA Wedding | Shenandoah Valley Elopement |
Winchester, Virginia holds a sweet spot in my heart. Because of this wonderful space and it’s surrounding areas I have been blessed with some of the most amazing clients. But also, it’s gorgeous. But also also 😉 it’s where my great grandparents eloped. So when Aspen and Taylor got ahold of me and told me of their plan to elope there, I was stoked to say the least.

Devin, Billy, and Lennie are some of my favorite humans, So when Devin hit me up to let me know their family was expanding and that it was time to capture them once again I was hyped. They drove up and met me at Swallow Falls State Park in Deep Creek Maryland. For the day I rented a stunning dress from Flutter Dress, and we wandered all over the park enjoying nature and capturing them in all of their glory as occasionally Lennie would play along when motivated by snacks and songs. Also a major shout out is needed to Billy’s sister for helping with Lennie, it would have been impossible without you <3 As the sun was setting and the park was empty, we then broke out the other wardrobe for the day and totally smoked out the top of Muddy Creek Falls. A major thank you all around to coming up to Deep Creek Lake Maryland and showing off the amazing glow that is your love and expanding family <3

Creekside Wedding|Clearville, PA|Creekside Resort | Bedford,PA Wedding Photographer |Pennsylvania Wedding Photographer
Lexi and Ian’s love shined bright on their May wedding day. Friends and family came from all over to join them at their venue, Creekside Resort in Bedford County, Pennsylvania. Their ceremony was held next to a creek and the two were married by Lexi’s dad under the wedding arch Ian custom made for the day. The day was filled with lots of laughter, love, lovely homemade details nodding to the couples farm home in Montgomery County, Maryland. Stories shared throughout the day nodded to their meeting and proposal involving a rainy day and a pregnant sheep in veterinary school at Virginia Tech. I am so glad these two and their puppy Andie had me capture their day. It was a wonderful one for sure.
Venue: Creekside Resort
Hair and Makeup: Statik Salon

Swallow Falls Engagement Photos|Deep Creek Lake|Swallow Falls State Park| McHenry, MD |Deep Creek Couples Photographer
Adam and Morgan met up with me in Oakland, MD, then we wandered over to Swallow Falls State Park, and then ended the day at Deep Creek Lake State Park and watched the sunset.
I have known Morgan forever thanks to her being a year younger than me in private school. So I figured what better way to spend the day then stumble around the area around where they are getting married, and just take our time taking their engagement photos and catching up.
We spent the time chatting about life after school, how her and Adam met, them living in Aspen, Colorado and having a puppy named for that life adventure. Adam enjoys photography as well and does some wonderful work with landscapes and we chatted about his love coming from getting into astro photography out west. It was a nice day spent wandering about with an old friend and a new friend. I can’t wait for their fall wedding in Garrett County, MD!!
