J + D are married! These two celebrated their wedding day with the sweetest intimate courthouse ceremony at the Frederick County Courthouse in Frederick, Maryland, and I’m not sure they stopped smiling for even a second. There’s something incredibly special about a Frederick, Maryland courthouse wedding. No big production. No huge guest list. No complicated […]

Yesterday was one of those wedding days that reminded me exactly why I love photographing small weddings. An Intimate Wedding on Capitol Hill E + J were married in the sweetest Washington, DC, micro-wedding at a beautiful church on Capitol Hill. They were surrounded by just the people closest to them, and the entire day […]

A + J are married! I had the incredible honor of being A + J’s only witness for their Prosperity Mansion wedding. There’s something so special about being invited into a wedding day this intimate. No crowd. No big production. Just two people choosing each other, saying “I do,” and making it official. An Intimate […]

DOwntown Frederick is the perfect place for wedding photos, no matter the weather. Venue | Citizens Ballroom Caterer | Celebrations Catering and […]

Today was the definition of a perfect micro wedding. Congrats Ryan + Emily! A beautiful day at The Line Hotel DC hair + makeup: @christybeauty__ (and a big thanks to @bashdc for sending me this sweet little wedding!)

I have been photographing small (I think it’s cool to call them “micro” now, right?) weddings since before they were trendy/necessary. Several years ago I made a conscious decision to seek out clients with smaller weddings. There were a lot of reasons for this, but mostly it came down to the fact that being gone […]

I got to photograph a small, intimate same-sex wedding today and when I left my feet were exhausted (doesn’t take much these days) but my heart was happy. In a very traditional Jewish ceremony, at one of the groom’s childhood temples, they said their vows under a huppah, a sibling holding each corner. There was […]

  We were all a little nervous earlier in the week, when the forecast called for rain. Lots of rain. But as the week chugged along, the weather was looking better and better. And by Saturday morning, I knew we were going to have an amazing day! Wetherly and Jason started the day at the […]
