On Saturday, I had the honor and privilege of photographing Joe + Megan’s wedding at the gorgeous Tidewater Inn in Easton, Maryland.  If you live anywhere along the east coast, you may have realized that this was coincidentally supposed to happen at the same time as Hurricane Joaquin.  Well when I emailed Megan to check in and see how she was doing before the big day, she replied as calm as can be, with the response of, a little rain won’t stop us from getting married! I love that she and Joe realized the most important part of this whole day… the fact that at the end of the evening it just mattered that they would be celebrating their marriage!

From the sweet gifts the exchanged, the beautiful church + venue, and the gorgeous florals, this wedding was certainly one for the books!  Joe and Megan, thank you so much for including us in your wedding day.  It was an honor to capture the beginning of your forever!

Wife, mama, wielder of light & joy, and capturer of moments.  I thrive off of conversation and genuine connection.  In between wrangling our kiddos, and hanging my husband, you'll find me dreaming up my next idea or creative endeavour.  It's these things that culminate to give my imagery a warmth and joy to them - the greatest compliment I could receive.

I was pretty nervous about being photographed and Lauren made everything fun and flexible. Honestly, I can't imagine the day without her and her team. They were wonderful and hearing from Lauren was always a genuine delight.
