This past season I’ve been taking a little break from blogging. Nothing is wrong. In fact, everything has been great. I’ve met so many new people this year and because I’ve wanted to put 100% into creating beautiful, personal images for them I decided to save a little of that extra energy by not blogging frequently. Now that things are starting to slowly wind down I thought I’d start sharing a few of my favorite shoots from over the summer.

First up Susan, Brandon, and their very soon to be here little girl. You may recognize them from the blog already. Last summer I photographed their beautiful destination wedding on Chincoteague. So as you can guess I was super stoked to hear that they would be back this summer and are expecting their first little one. Here are a just a few favorites of these beautiful parents-to-be.

Two things I love about this session:

1) These freakin awesome people
2) This crazy fog

I feel like I had been unknowingly waiting on the “we’re pregnant” text from Stephanie and Chris practically since I photographed their wedding, and was genuinely so thrilled to hear the time had come! We met up at Stephanie’s family’s farm (the same place they were married) to capture some sunrise pictures with little baby to be Henry  Instead of a gorgeous sunrise, however, we were met with this crazy, moody, equally as gorgeous fog. I was actually pretty stoked about it and driving to the session I was actually afraid that it would burn off before our shoot, but it stuck around and I’m really feeling the vibe it gave to farm.
These two are going to be the best parents, no joke. I can’t wait to meet their little guy this summer and to welcome Stephanie to the “boy mom” club 🙂

Stephanie and Chris’s wedding this past Saturday was everything I dreamed it would be and more.  Since I first found out they were getting engaged (sorry Steph, I may have had an idea of when Chris was planning to pop the question 🙂 ) I’ve been excitedly anticipating this day.  Stephanie is one of the most beautiful people I know, both inside and out, and I’ve been honored to count her as a dear friend for over 10 years.  I don’t think she could have found a more perfect match in Chris; his sense of humor and care for others fits her perfectly, and they are such a joy to be around.

Stephanie and Chris had an amazing vision for their wedding, utilizing her family’s farm and adding touches of both of their personalities in to compliment the already stunning setting (including, in true Stephanie fashion, re-purposing her mother’s wedding dress into one of the most beautiful wedding dress I’ve seen).  And to top it off everything was tied together with an unbelievable hurricane-inspired sunset over the open fields.

Stephanie and Chris, thank you so much for letting me capture this day for you.  I love you both dearly and am excited for whatever your future together has in store. There are probably too many images in this post, but I loved everything about this wedding and couldn’t bring myself to cut it down more! Hope your time in Hawaii is as amazing as your wedding day!
