Sarah and Reed | New York Botanical Gardens Engagement
We Traveled to New York Botanical Gardens for this insatiate dreamy proposal. Our dear friends reserved the enchanted Rose Garden to set the scene. Afterwards we walked to the immaculate Conservatory to end the celebration.
Bromo Seltzer Arts Tower | Baltimore Maryland Photographer
Alli and Matt
The Bromo Seltzer Arts Tower is an incredibly unique and artistic photo location for couples portraits and engagement. It is packed with history and unmatched character housed in the gorgeous clocktower with 360 degree views of Baltimore, MD. We had such a blast with these two! Enjoy!
Edgar and Racheal | White Sands Wedding Photographer
Second to the Grand Tetons, White Sands National Park has become our favorite national park in the states! The vast rolling dunes of white gypsum at sunset reflect the deep sunset colors turning the landscape into a visual dream. This time around we encountered a camel named Samson along with his owner, George (or as we call him “desert Santa”). Samson and George come to the White Sands every Sunday for an evening walk and talk to travelers !

Romantic wedding at Stulzfus Homestead and

Abby and Ryan’s wedding at Stulzfus Homestead and Gardens was a celebration that mirrored the couple’s fun and playful spirit styled with the rich history of Lancaster, PA’s Dutch heritage.
From Abby getting ready in the carriage house bridal suite to the first look in the dreamy Stultzfus Secret Garden, everything turned out beautifully. The day was truly vibrant, warm, and the party was fantastic!

Stony Man Summit Mountain Elopement |Shenandoah National Park Virginia
Intimate fall mountain elopement at Stony Man Summit, VA
Loved hiking with these two for this epic sunrise elopement in Shenandoah National Park to Stony Man Summit in Virginia. It was a true fairy tale (even though the wind was unrelenting)! Enjoy their intimate wedding as much as we did!
WINTERGREEN RESORT | VIRGINIA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
Although weddings are beautiful, memorable, life-changing days honoring the love you and your partner have, and celebrating your life-long covenant to each other, they can also be hectic and stressful to say the least.
Which is why you might want to consider scheduling a bridal shoot apart from your wedding (partners can be included)! If you didn’t get that beautiful sunset shot that you wanted because of the weather, if you weren’t able to carve out enough time for bridal portraits during the hustle and bustle of it all, or if you just have a location aside from your venue that you want bridal portraits at that’s completely understandable.

This gives us complete freedom from the normal constraints of a wedding day, and we’d love to create some awesome ART with whatever vision you have in mind!
WINTERGREEN RESORT
Wintergreen resort holds a special place in our hearts as its stunning views of the Shenandoah valley, ski lodge, and mountain culture represent a part of our story as we used to call this part of Virginia our home.

BUCKS COUNTY WEDDING | PENNSYLVANIA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
I first met Maddie in elementary school, and like most childhood friends as we grew up life pulled us in different directions. But then she asked me to photograph her wedding.
I first met Maddie in elementary school, and like most childhood friends as we grew up life pulled us in different directions. But then she asked me to photograph her wedding.
Leading up to the wedding, I thought to myself how cool it would it be to tell our younger selves that we wouldn’t always be playing during recess or having sleepovers on the weekends; but that we would grow up, wouldn’t see each other for almost a decade between high school and her wedding day, and then would reconnect on one of the most important days of her life.
And it was beautiful. Seeing her and many others from my hometown and childhood on the wedding day was the absolute best. An oddly fun experience to reunite with the same people I used to sit in class with and see the unique individuals they had grown to become. Some of them turned out just as I had imagined, and others different than I originally pictured, but making perfect sense in hindsight.
Bucks County Wedding
Anyways, on the morning of the wedding there was a forecast of rain almost up until the moment the ceremony began, and the couple wanted to have it outside… They decided to take the risk and keep it that way. As the guests started arriving, the rain ceased and the procession started. As a result of the rain, the wooded backdrop in Bucks County was absolutely stunning because the fall foliage almost projected their vibrant colors back to us with the reflection of the sun. And although there may have been some soggy shoes that day, it was perfect nonetheless.
ALDIE MANSION | DOYELSTOWN WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
Aiden and Ashley’s wedding was nothing short of a fairytale. Not only because Aldie Mansion looked like a castle, but because this classic couple infused their Scottish heritage into the ceremony, had a suit of armor in their reception hall, and had the most beautiful renaissance touches.

RIVER HOUSE AT ODETTE’s | NEW HOPE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
What an honor and special experience it is to photograph the love story of an old friend.
I met Alli during my freshman year of college at Kutztown University. We were in the same major and ended up in the same classes 99.9% of the time…
What an honor and special experience it is to photograph the love story of an old friend.
I met Alli during my freshman year of college at Kutztown University. We were in the same major and ended up in the same classes 99.9% of the time, which meant that we had countless 3 hour studio classes together during our 4 years. We would even do impromptu photoshoots of each other in our free time and worked in residence life together.
If you can’t already tell, we are very similar, especially when it comes to art, style, and being, well… perfectionists. So when she asked me and Josh to do her wedding and engagement photos I was actually a little surprised, but definitely up for the challenge.
RIver house at odette’s
Everything came together so beautifully, and how could it not with a bride so attuned to detail? The venue, wedding date itself, stationery, flowers, wedding dress, bridal party attire, makeup, hair, cake, decor, and even guestbook were all meticulously considered and elevated the moody, autumn theme.
