On Friday, I had the great honor and privilege of photographing Stephanie & Matthew’s Wedding at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club in Stevensville, Maryland on the gorgeous Eastern Shore! I have known Steph since our days playing basketball together in high school and it was such an incredible experience being able to photograph her wedding day and reconnect with a few of her bridesmaids that I’ve known for so long!
If I had to pick a favorite moment of the day, which I’m honestly telling you is near impossible, I would have to choose the moment when Matthew saw Steph walking down the aisle in her gown for the first time. She looked absolutely radiant on her father’s arm and everyone started to tear up… including the groom! There was so much emotion, joy, and happiness pervading every second of this special day and it reminded me why I love being a wedding photographer so very much!
Congratulations Stephanie & Matt! I hope you both are enjoying your honeymoon in the islands!

When I first opened my company, I found you online and was floored by your crisp, nautical, classy style. While my branding is still in the works and my company has miles to go before it becomes what I really want it to be, you are an inspiration. This wedding was beautiful in itself, with the beach accents and nautical theme, but your photography shines through as well, and that is what really makes photos unique- the photographer’s style. Thanks for being so awesome:)
Ah! They look like such a fun-loving couple and the CBB weddings are always SO beautiful! Thanks for sharing! XO
