Dixie & Luke – The Star Barn at Ironstone Ranch

Dixie and Luke’s wedding day was special for so many reasons. One of those reasons being that it was the first wedding at the brand new Star Barn at Ironstone Ranch. Ironstone Ranch is known for being one of the premier wedding venues in the south central Pennsylvania area and they certainly didn’t disappoint with The Star Barn. The weather was perfect. The people were amazing. The scenery was epic. It was everything that I hope a wedding will be and I was honored that Dixie and Luke trusted me to capture their special day!

Ballroom at the Ben Wedding – Julie & Alex

When Julie and Alex told me about their wedding day vision, I knew it was going to be a classic yet unique Philly wedding that would be one for the record books. And it certainly lived up to and exceeded those expectations! 

We started the day at the Hotel Monaco where both Julie and Alex got ready for the big day. Once everyone was ready, we made our way over to the Second National Bank where we did portraits of the wedding party. We then hopped on the trolley and rode over to Christ Church, a church founded in 1695, for the ceremony. Then, we went back to the Second National Bank for portraits with Julie and Alex with some amazing light. Finally, we made our way over to the stunning Ballroom at the Ben. It’s truly a venue that leaves you speechless when you walk in!

The day was absolutely perfect from start to finish and I think the moments we captured certainly prove that point!

Liz & Steve – Excelsior Wedding

Liz and Steve came to me through the recommendation of one of my former couples and I couldn’t be more thankful because they were so much fun to work with. I went to their home in Brooklyn to capture their engagement session and then they came down to Lancaster to officially tie the know at the always incredible and never duplicated Excelsior. We had such a wonderful day full of laughter and tears (best first look of 2017?!). Congrats Liz and Steve!

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. 

Heidi & Barry – Four Seasons Baltimore Wedding

Heidi & Barry – Four Seasons Baltimore Wedding

When I first meet with my couples, I always ask why they chose their wedding venue. Usually, they give the response that they like the grounds or location of the venue. Heidi and Barry gave the most unique response to my question and I’ll never forget it. They said, “We believe that it takes four seasons to truly get to know someone else. That’s why we chose to get married at the Four Seasons in Baltimore.” It doesn’t get much more real and authentic than that and their wedding day was filled with genuine moments. Congrats Heidi and Barry!

Kim & Chip – Fleisher Art Memorial Wedding

One of the golden rules for photographers is that you never work with your family or friends because if things go wrong, you don’t want it to damage your relationships forever. However, I knew that wouldn’t be an issue with Kim and Chip’s wedding due to their easygoing nature and how well their engagement session went. As I expected, the day went so smoothly and we all had a wonderful time at the Fleisher Art Memorial. Their dog, Stanley, even made a few appearances throughout the day! Congrats Kim and Chip!

Alicia & Justin – Middleburg Wedding

Alicia & Justin – Middleburg Wedding

When Alicia first contacted me about photographing her wedding, I’ll admit that I was hesitant because it was New Year’s Eve and I wasn’t sure that I wanted to work on a holiday. However, after talking with Alicia for a bit, it became very clear that she truly valued photography and loved my work so I couldn’t say no! Alicia and Justin’s day was perfect and their first look will forever be one of my favorite moments as a wedding photographer. They really opened themselves up and were vulnerable with one another throughout the day and I feel that it really benefited their pictures. Congrats Alicia and Justin!

Christina & Brian – Inn at Leola Village Wedding

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!

Historic Acres of Hershey Wedding – Kathleen & Andrew

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!

Alverthorpe Manor Wedding – Megan & Adam

I had been looking forward to Megan and Adam’s wedding day since their engagement session because I knew how amazing it was going to be. And their big day certainly didn’t disappoint!

The weather was absolutely perfect. The flowers were grown by Megan, Adam, and their family which made them even more beautiful. Everything ran on time (this seriously never happens!). The people were awesome. 

Alverthorpe Manor was the perfect backdrop for the day and the staff there are phenomenal! I really can’t recommend them enough if you’re looking for a unique wedding venue in the Philadelphia area.

A huge congrats to Megan and Adam! I can’t thank you two enough for allowing me to capture your special day!
