I'm a Jesus follower, mac 'n cheese lover, and travel enthusiast. I specialize in wedding, high school senior, and lifestyle photography in the Frederick, MD area but am always down to travel. I'm a mama to two, married to my high school sweetheart, and am passionate about authentically telling love stories through photography and eating as much dark chocolate as I can. Stick around awhile to view the latest love stories I've had the privilege of capturing.
High school sweethearts, John and Abby met when they were sixteen years old and have been together ever since. Abby’s favorite favorite place on earth is Disney World, so John thought up the perfect proposal and surprised Abby by getting down on on one knee during the night time fireworks show in front of Cinderella’s […]
Oh man, I am so excited to bring you this engagement shoot. There are some couples who are so totally and completely in love that they can’t help but constantly be cuddling, kissing, and wrapping up in each other’s arms. Which can perhaps be a bit annoying when you’re the friend who is always having […]
Bailey & Steve’s wedding was truly special. Brent and I have photographed a lot of weddings in our time, and we kept saying how perfect their wedding was last Saturday. The weather was gorgeous, the decorations were stunning, the timeline was relaxed and ran perfectly (largely thanks to their awesome planner, Gary) and the setting […]
Sarah & Ben literally could not have had a more perfect day for their beautiful Dulany’s Overlook wedding! Sarah describes their love as a genuine, enlightening, supportive love that they didn’t want to rush, but weren’t afraid to push because they knew they would better overcome any obstacles as a couple. And from the moment […]
It’s no secret that I absolutely LOVE photographing around golden hour. Sometimes referred to as ‘magic hour’, golden hour is the period of time right before sunset when the light is warm, diffused, and just plain gorgeous. Realistically, the window of opportunity is more like 20 minutes or even less depending on the landscape and […]
Bailey and Steve couldn’t have asked for a prettier day for their Sugarloaf Mountain Engagement Shoot. After two months of almost straight rain, I was starting to wonder if I’d ever photograph outdoors again! Thankfully, they had a crisp fall afternoon with even a little sun at the beginning of the shoot. Bailey and Steve […]
It was about an hour and a half into Natalie and Darren’s reception when a guest jokingly remarked, “Man, do you think they love each other because it’s hard for me to tell!” I laughed in response because it was so obvious that Darren and Natalie are completely, undeniably, head over heels in love. From […]
Jessica & Craig met back in 2011 while working together at a movie theater. They started dating a few months later and stayed strong despite the distance that separated them when Jessica left to attend WVU. After college, she moved back to Maryland for grad school and the two are now excitedly planning their wedding! […]
A donut cake, first glance, beautiful pastel bridesmaid dresses, and scientific flasks for vases made for one beautiful and unique spring Morningside Inn wedding! Gregory and Gen met through OK Cupid and describe their first date as a “comedy of errors.” Despite that, Genevieve found herself liking Greg so much she didn’t want the night […]
We’re kicking off the 2018 wedding season with a bang! Check out this beautiful winter Holly Hills Country Club wedding! For a January wedding, Tarek & Elizabeth couldn’t have asked for better weather (okay, maybe a little less wind, but it’s hard to complain when the temperature was in the fifties!). I loved their neutral […]
