Shannon + Pierre

Winterthur Museum & Garden

Winterthur, Delaware

06.13.2020

Shannon and Pierre are newly engaged and chose to do their engagement photos at Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library. Winterthur is a expansive and magical place right here in Delaware. Doing your engagement session on location allows the couple to learn more about their venue before their wedding.

Shannon and Pierre getting married in a small ceremony this fall. Originally they had planned for a big wedding this fall but have changed their plans due to the Pandemic. I love the idea of people still getting married this year in small intimate weddings with just a few of their favorite people present.

Then in 2021 Shannon and Pierre will have their big wedding on the same date, kind of a one year anniversary party. They are having their big 1 year celebration at one of my favorite gardens locations, the Reflecting Pool at Winterthur.

Film Photography

San Diego, California

For the first week of March I was in sunny San Diego enjoying photographing with film. Film photography is something I’ve been wanting to add to my weddings for some time now. I needed a good safe place to test it out with out the pressure that comes along on a typical wedding day. I’ve dabbled with it in the last couple of years but it took a while to find a camera I loved and a film processor who could make those images look magical. The camera has to be simple and fast so as not to interfere with the fast paced flow of the modern wedding and not take away from the digital photography that modern brides expect. I wanted to offer something more, something they didn’t expect and something that I knew they would LOVE!

So my trip to California taught me so many things, but mostly it made me love the look of film. I am so looking forward to wedding season starting again and being able to share my love of film with all my 2020 brides, just to add to give them a little something extra.

Megan + Alex

Hagley Museum Wedding

Wilmington, Delaware

01.11.2020

Megan and Alexandra were married on a perfect spring-like Saturday at the historical Hagley Museum. We love all soft colors and blooms they chose for their winter wedding.

Megan says, “This past Saturday I was fortunate enough to say “I do,” to the one woman who brings out the best in me and who allows me to be my most genuine self. Surrounded by our family and friends as well as our adoration for each other, we became more than two people in love, we became a single entity; one force powered by our independent cares for the other. Over the past years we have built our relationship, we shared many secrets, laughs and tears and now we legally share so much more- even a last name! Here’s to life ahead, wherever our adventures lead us I know you will be by my side.”

Emily and Dominic were married on a windy fall day at Thousand Acre Farm a waterfront barn venue located in Middletown, Delaware. I have always wanted to photograph a wedding at this pretty barn.
