Steph & Bobby – York Outdoor Country Club Wedding

Mother Nature couldn’t make up it’s mind on the day of Steph and Bobby’s wedding but that didn’t stop us (or them) from having a great time. It poured all morning and then the sun came out and melted us for a few hours before the sky became completely overcast and stormy again. Thankfully, the rain held off when we needed it to and Steph and Bobby’s day went off without a hitch. There was so much genuine joy and laughter throughout the day and you could really feel the connections between everyone involved.

Christina was super excited (and a little nervous) when the weather report came across with the four letter word that couples either hate or love: SNOW. Thankfully, the snow ended just in time for the roads to be safe and it left a beautiful thin layer of snow everywhere. The Inn at Leola Village looked absolutely gorgeous and served as the perfect backdrop to this winter wonderland wedding. The day was full of love, laughter, and tears and I can’t thank Christina and Brian enough for allowing us to capture their special day!

Kathleen and Andrew are one of the most fun loving couples that I’ve worked with. We had a blast at their engagement session at Tyler Arboretum back in August and I knew their wedding day would be quite similar. Fall decided to stick around a bit longer this year and we couldn’t have been more grateful because the colors just popped everywhere!

Brick Gables Wedding – Tierney & Troy

Tierney and Troy are such a fun loving and silly couple and I knew that their wedding day would lend itself to tons of great candid moments. Emotions were running high all day (and not in a bad way) and it really helped me to understand how deeply connected everyone was. I’m pretty sure everyone’s faces hurt from smiling a few hours into the day because we were having such a good time. Brick Gables is one of the newest wedding venues in the Lancaster area but they seemed like seasoned pros and did a phenomenal job hosting Tierney and Troy’s big day. Congrats Tierney and Troy!

I had been looking forward to Courtney and Michael’s wedding day for quite some time because I knew it would be a totally fun and relaxed day at a beautiful venue. Their day certainly lived up to the expectations – perfect weather, people, venue, and rocking reception band. If you’re having a wedding and are considering a band, you must check out Group du Jour. They absolutely crushed it and had the place rocking all night. I really can’t find the words to describe the awesomeness of Courtney and Michael’s wedding day so I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking!

The weather was absolutely perfect and so were Jessica and Brandon. They’re too adorable (see proof below) and brought a ton of smiles, laughter, and love to their session. This was my first engagement session back since my surgery and it reminded me how much I love my job and how much I missed shooting engagements like this one. We did a little trespassing and got into some dangerous positions for the shots but it was totally worth it in the end. Stay tuned for more from these two next year when they get married at the Stone Mill Inn!

Alicia and Winston’s engagement session was an absolute smashing success. We did their engagement session at The Hotel Hershey in the spring on the most perfect day and it really paid off. In fact, their engagement session was shared by Hershey Entertainment!

I knew that their wedding day would be equally amazing and it certainly didn’t disappoint. It was literally one of the hottest days of the year but that didn’t stop everyone from having a good time. The Clubs at Colonial Ridge served as the perfect backdrop for Alicia and Winston’s big day.

Chris and I are former coworkers so I was thrilled when his fiancé (at the time), Stacy, reached out to me. We all really hit it off and agreed that we were a great fit for each other. I shot Stacy and Chris’s engagement session at Excelsior while it was under construction and we had no idea that the finished venue would look as beautiful as it did. If you’re looking for a modern, chic, industrial, architecture, old, incredible venue in the Lancaster area, I can’t recommend it enough. Stacy and Chris’s day was filled with laughter, tears, and lots of love. Congrats!

Dana & Dan – Strasburg Backyard Wedding

Dana and Dan’s story of how they met is unlike any other that I’ve heard. In short, their friends helped them connect at a friend’s house one summer and a few years later they were getting married at the same exact house with family and friends from all over. The weather was slightly bipolar (100+ degrees to pouring thunderstorms) but everyone was in great spirits and stayed positive. Weddings like Dana and Dan’s remind me of why I got into photographing weddings. The pure raw emotion throughout the day was truly touching and it reminds me of what weddings are really about (love). I can’t thank Dana and Dan enough for allowing me to capture their special day!
