Jon and Kathleen
An Intimate St. Michaels Affair
Jon and Kathleen came home to Maryland from California to tie the knot among their family members and closest friends at the Inn at Perry Cabin. The day was unreal; cool and breezy and brimming with love and emotion. Jon and Kathleen were walking on air!
Sexy little bride shoes!
I had Kathleen wait for Jon under the weeping willow tree outside her
suite. It was so romantic as the leaves blew in the breeze, and
exciting for me to try some creative portraits. I think it was torture
for Kathleen, though, as she waited for Jon to come find her!
Love to Lola, Kathleen's grandmother.
Lighting the unity candle before the blessing at dinner; great idea!

A Baltimore 4th of July bash
The couple looked so cute with their dog, Zoe, who was trying to beat the heat all day!
I took a stab at the ring shot, a little technique I was reminded of at a recent gathering of wedding photographers.
Zoe decided it was potty time during the processional!
Cake by Charm City Cakes. It must have been good - by the time Monica and I even thought about trying some, it was gone!
Zoe wanted to dance, too!
These two were on top of the cake, but Monica caught them making out outside!
Nice light spilling into the staircase at the Cloisters Castle. This was my take...

Hollywood Glam comes to Annapolis
Lindsay and Kirk's vision of a contemporary, yet classic, wedding came to fruition with a totally unique look and feel. Their family and friends converged upon Annapolis from the Eastern Shore and New York in formal black-and-white attire. It was quite a dapper crowd, and I have never seen the Annapolis Marriott Waterfront look so elegant!
Vogue magazine cover?
The bridesmaids' dresses were more high maintenance than the bride's!
We love when the B&G have a moment together before the wedding, with time to unwind before the ceremony and do all the group shots, it's a great relief to everyone.
We integrated some classic Annapolis architecture into our family formals. This one's by the State House...
...and this one's on Maryland Avenue.
My assistant, Monica Hoeffelmurphy, broke out a fun lens for this shot! Go Monica!
I love the ivory and silver combo!
Welcome to the tribe, Lindsay!

Shannon and Dino

A Baltimore backyard wedding
Shannon and her sister, Darby, are very close, and they had so much fun getting Shannon dressed.
I stood outside in the rain to get some natural light for this portrait of Shannon. She was squatting in the doorway.
The flowers by Teresa Kastner of Floral Impressions were exquisite!
The limo drivers from An Xtreme LimoScene were so attentive; like bodyguards with big black umbrellas. This is a great shot by Kathy Blanchard, my assistant for the day!
Oops! Dino almost dropped the ring. Nice catch.
The sun came out moments before the B&G exited the church at Loyola College Alumni Chapel. It was a miracle!
I passed this horse pasture on my way to Shannon's house. I was SO EXCITED to be able to stop for pictures later to capture the scene with blue skies. The horses were frisky and came running right up to us.
I love this shot by Kathy! It's very unusual to get a nice shot of the lineup before the intros. This one is gorgeous and really sets the scene.
Dino and his mom.
The Boticelli painting "Primavera" from my Italian Renaissance days in Florence came to mind when I saw the girls chatting under the willow tree.
Shannon's dad, Pat, and his mom.
"Butterfly Kisses" for the last dance with dad.
