Reese + Dan - Northern Virginia Wedding Photographer

Where to begin...we got super lucky with this wedding. See I always try and meet my brides before they book with me, but this time it just wasn't in the cards as Reese and Dan live in San Diego. She is the sister of a friend of my brothers...so when she contacted me I set up a phone call. And guess what...I knew it was going to be awesome from the start as she is a Salisbury grad too!! 

Jimmy and I went into this wedding not knowing a lot of what to expect and we both agree it was one of our favorite weddings ever. Simple, it was simple and perfect and fit Reese and Dan to a T. No hair dressers, no make-up artists (except for Mom!), nothing too fancy or over the top...but simply gorgeous. They were married by a good friend, toasted by other great friends and spent the night celebrating with all of the important people in their lives.

Some of these pics are my favorite...enjoy...

Reese and Dan -- thanks for taking a chance on us. We were beyond thrilled with meeting you and getting to spend your wedding day with you. Hope you had an amazing time in Australia!

Leah + Bradley - Liriodendron Wedding Photographer

Leah and Bradley have been together for a long time…but to be there to witness them come together as one officially was a special moment.

Leah made a such a gorgeous bride! I think everyones jaw dropped the moment they saw her step out of the LIRIODENDRON doors.

They couldn’t have asked for a more gorgeous night — it rained all day until they were ready to set out the chairs for the ceremony then blue skies came rolling in and the day was perfect.

Congrats Leah + Brad!! Thanks for allowing us to capture these special moments in your life!!

xoxo

Brittany + Dustin - Douglas Wedding - Maryland Wedding Photographer

Brittany and Dustin's wedding day started as all others do - the bride getting ready and the groom getting ready, the guests arriving...then the rain came. Not just rain, but wind and rain. But guess what...then the sun and rainbows came and everything was AMAZING!!

Brittany had always dreamed of getting married on her parents farm (

Full Day Enterprise

) in the wheat field...and her dream came true and was simply beautiful. Brittany and Dustin met showing cattle with 4-H so there couldn't have been a more perfect venue.

Every little detail of their wedding day was thought of - and gorgeous. From the dresses to the drinks and everything in between, this day couldn't have been more perfect for the perfect couple.

Congrats Brittany and Dustin!! Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your most memorable day!! Enjoy your sneak peek!!

xoxo - Carrie & Jimmy
