In a day of online connection, it’s rare and special for two people to meet in person. Annie was at her Baltimore neighborhood bar for a birthday party. Danny is friends with the owner and crashed said party. As they say, the rest is history! They walked away with the biggest gift that night because five years later, they’re getting married!!

One of the best parts about my job is getting to watch families grow and grow up. I’ve had the pleasure of photographing Julian and his sweet parents many times and it is so much fun getting to see him change! From a little guy who could hardly sit up to a walking, talking little boy, he is growing up before my eyes.

Sweet baby Sofia. This little lady turned one recently and her adorable family came over to celebrate with a cake smash session. Sofia’s mom, Maria, wanted to keep things clean and simple for the theme. This is why I always allow families to bring their own props and cake! There are so many styles and I want the images to match your vision, not a set of props I could pick out and provide.

It was a super hot day in July and Melissa and I were worried about our bride and groom overheating, but John had just returned from a tour in Africa so he didn’t mind, even in full uniform. Lorraine caught a breeze by riding up to the first look on her famous pink vespa with a huge smile, veil and all!
