Kate and Pete are engaged! This was such a special engagement session for me to capture. I went to high school with Kate many years ago and she was always the sweetest ray of light. She moved to the east coast after graduation and we lost touch, but photography has brought us back together for the most joyous time of her life. She will be getting married to Pete back in her home state at the venue her parents had their wedding reception at 35+ years ago. So excited to see the magic unfold at their Beach Club wedding this May!

Shannon and Kevin are married! My favorite part about this wedding was the color! The color of the florals, the color of the bridesmaid dresses, the color of the furniture in the bride’s home that they got ready in. The colors were the perfect backdrop to the natural look of Ashery Lane Farm. The pops of greenery from the vineyards and white rustic barn set the most idyllic scene! My second favorite element? Shannons smile the whole day. It was contagious! My associate Malorie did a wonderful job capturing their day.

I swear I still dream about this gorgeous spring wedding from May of 2022!! The entire day felt like I was photographing a styled shoot. Every single detail of this day was thought through, executed beautifully, and told their unique story. Katelyn and Ben could be confused as models, but they are also so kind and SO in love! They were locked in on each other for the entire day and their chemistry made magic in front of the camera.
