Historic Shady Lane Wedding – Heather & Andrew

Bysmjphotography

I don’t even know how to write about this day because it was just that emotional and incredible. Heather and Andrew are two of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet and their friends and family were no different. Heather and Andrew both looked stunning and Historic Shady Lane provided the perfect backdrop for an amazing day. They left plenty of time in their day for getting ready, first look, wedding party, and portrait pictures which always makes me happy and ensures that I can deliver the best photography possible throughout the day. I can’t thank Heather and Andrew for enough for allowing me to capture their special day and wish them nothing but the best in the future!

Sam & Josh – The Susquehanna Club Wedding

I had such a great time during Sam and Josh’s engagement session last summer that I knew their wedding day would be special and it didn’t disappoint. There’s usually one point in the wedding day where something doesn’t go as planned and everyone has to help out to get things back in track. In the case of Sam and Josh’s wedding, their weddings rings were left back at their house! The wedding party flew back to their house to get the rings so that the day could resume its schedule. With the help and cooperation of everyone, we were able to get the timeline back on track. We enjoyed a wonderful evening at The Susquehanna Club in Harrisburg and captured some great moments from a really fun crew!

Carolyn & Jon – Lancaster City Engagement

Carolyn and Jon live in Lancaster so it was only fitting that they had their engagement session in the city. I love shooting engagement sessions in the city because it’s full of little nooks that you discover each time you shoot there. I also like to incorporate lots of flash during urban engagement shoots because it helps everything pop and become more dramatic. Stay tuned for more from Carolyn and Jon as they’ll be getting married at Prospect Valley Farm in Columbia in June!

I was so excited when Alicia and Winston told me that they wanted to do their engagement session at The Hotel Hershey. I had heard so many great things about the grounds and they certainly didn’t disappoint. No matter where we went, there was another picture just begging to be taken. They’re getting married at the Colonial Country Club in September and I’m really looking forward to their big day!

Courtney & Michael – Carlisle Engagement

When I first met with Courtney and Michael to discuss their wedding photography, they asked how I felt about horses and if I had any experience working with horses. Ironically, I did as my aunt owned a horse for a few years and I did a few photo shoots for her. Courtney and Michael (and their families) are involved with the local library so we started off there and then went to the stables where they keep their horse. This one goes down as one of the most unique engagement sessions ever! Keep an eye out for their October wedding at Kennedy Family Farms.

Longs Park Engagement – Nastassia & Henry

I meet a lot of fun and carefree couples but I think Nastassia and Henry take the crown as the most fun loving couple I’ve shot to date. As a photographer, my goal is to get my couples to feel and look as natural as possible in their pictures. Nastassia and Henry couldn’t have made it any easier and they reminded me of just how much fun my job really is. We had a beautiful day at Longs Park in Lancaster and I can’t wait for their wedding next month at Historic Shady Lane in York!

Kate and Chad were a ton of fun during their engagement session so I was really looking forward to their wedding at Beech Springs Farm. This was my first time shooting there and I certainly hope it’s not my last as the property is just gorgeous and everyone who works there is so nice! The weather couldn’t have been any better for Kate and Chad’s wedding and the timeline for the day was absolutely flawless with no stress or issues. Congrats Kate and Chad!

Emily & Brian – Liberty Mountain Resort Wedding

Emily and Brian’s wedding story was a complicated one that had a lot of bumps along the way but ended just perfectly. For starters, Emily and Brian found out that their reception venue (Liberty Mountain Resort) wouldn’t be ready in time for their wedding (as it was undergoing reconstruction) so they would be in a tent outside instead. They handled it really well and LMR really stepped it up with a massive, beautiful tent. When I met with Emily to discuss her wedding day, we joked how the only thing that would really throw a wrench into things would be if we had a torrential downpour of rain and strong winds (because of the tent). Apparently the joke was on us because Hurricane Joaquin decided to show up and really make the day difficult. However, it all worked out in the end and we were able to get a really incredible shot with the rain!

Cindy & Terry – Glen Rock Wedding

My photography friend Artemas reached out to me and asked if I was available to shoot a small backyard wedding in Glen Rock for the owners of the Glen Rock Mill Inn. I was thrilled for the opportunity and reached out to Cindy and Terry to arrange the details for the day. The wedding was quite the change of pace (in a good way) from traditional weddings and it reminded me that all you really need is the person you love and your loved ones to celebrate your new life together. It was a beautifully intimate and heart warming wedding and I can’t thank Cindy and Terry enough for allowing me to be a part of their special day!
