Longwood Gardens Anniversary Session – Jen and Kevin

Love, Stories Documented  //  21st December 2015

For the past 6 years, we have had the honor of photographing these two and their AMAZING love! It started when Jen was a bridesmaid in Allison and Tom’s wedding! Then we captured one of my most favorite moments of all time… Kevin’s proposal to Jen at the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, DC! Their engagement session in Old Town Alexandria, their wedding in Georgetown and now their Anniversary session at Longwood Gardens have all brought smiles to our faces!

Jen and Kevin are inspiring! They are always adventuring and always finding ways to have fun together! As we have traveled throughout the U.S. this year, we knew that if we received a recommendation from Jen and Kevin, we had to check it out! They go and do and enjoy the everyday moments of life! That is what we love about them!

Seeing Jen and Kevin and having the opportunity to photograph their love fills our hearts with joy! We are so grateful for couples like Jen and Kevin in our lives who remind us how very special love really is!

Baltimore Engagement Session – Colleen and Aaron

Engagement, Love, Stories Documented  //  18th December 2015

A few years ago (it is crazy to think that was a few years ago now) we met Colleen and Aaron at Colleen’s brother’s wedding we were photographing in Punta Cana! We fell in love with them then and secretly couldn’t wait to hear the news that they were getting married! Their joy made such an impact on us!

When we received their email and heard the news that it was official and Colleen and Aaron are getting married… we definitely celebrated right along with them!!! It is so much fun to see two happy hearts starting the next adventure in their lives together! And what a treat to be able to photograph their joy!

AND their sweet dog, Barkley! Ohh my goodness! Between Kristin and Danny’s AMAZING bulldogs and Barkley… those Albrechts sure do know how to pick the cutest dogs ever to bring into their lives! So much fun!

Colleen and Aaron- we are so incredibly excited to be able to capture your love and this amazing time in your lives! Cheers to you!

Amherst Massachusetts Engagement – Sara and Joe

Engagement, Love, Stories Documented  //  16th November 2015

Sara and Joe!!! Ahh! These two! Remember our sweet friends Kait and Adam’s wedding where we literally walked in as strangers and walked out as family!?!? ;) Sara is one of Kait’s AMAZING friends and therefore is family! ;)

When Sara shared the news that she and Joe were engaged, we literally jumped up and down for them! We could not be more excited as they celebrate this AMAZING time in their lives together!

While we were traveling through MA, we made a stop in Amherst to capture their southern hearts in this sweet town they currently call home! ;) This was the first time we met Joe and we can happily say that they definitely found their match! They kept us laughing the whole engagement session! We had so much fun!

Sara and Joe… thank YOU for giving us the opportunity to capture your beautiful love! You two make an AMAZING team together! We are so excited for your wedding and celebrating with you again soon!

The Barn at Gibbet Hill Engagement – Jenna and Jesse

Engagement, Love, Stories Documented  //  13th November 2015

Seeing one of your best friends get engaged is definitely crazy exciting! In fact, when Jenna and Jesse called us to tell us they were getting married, we were in a random grocery store in Bozeman, Montana and I definitely screamed out loud! I am pretty sure every single person in the store turned to look at me like I was crazy! Ryan even made me go outside because I was making a scene! ;) lol. Hearing that your friends are engaged is definitely worth making a scene! ;)

AND hearing the news is only one piece of the excitement! Being right there next to your friends to celebrate their engagement is another! We had SO MUCH FUN photographing their engagement session because it was just one of our little ways that we we could celebrate Jenna and Jesse! ;) The smiles on their faces are beyond happy! Knowing their hearts are happy will forever bring an extra bit of excitement to our hearts!

We cannot wait to be back at The Barn at Gibbet Hill in Massachusetts with Jenna and Jesse next year as we celebrate their marriage!!!! Ahhh! So crazy exciting!!! ;)

Elegant Fall Wedding – MaryKate and Pete

Love, Stories Documented, Wedding  //  10th November 2015

There are so many things about MaryKate and Pete’s wedding that we absolutely LOVE! The tradition, the simple elegance, seeing past Liz and Ryan couples, and sweet sweet love!!!

MaryKate and Pete’s elegant fall wedding was held at the same church MaryKate’s grandparents were married in 67 years ago! How incredible is that? What a special tribute to the generations of love that came before them!!! I can only imagine the smile on their grandparent’s faces as they watched over them that day!

MaryKate and Pete are two of the sweetest people we have ever met! Their simple elegance came through in every way on their wedding day! And we could not have been more honored to capture it! It was such an AMAZING fall day! AND we got to see Samantha and Rameez… one of our couples from 2014! You have no idea how excited we get for weddings when we know we are going to be able to give our previous couples BIG hugs!!! (We get even more excited when they are in the bridal party and Samantha just happened to be the MOH!!! ;) ) SO FUN!!!

MaryKate and Pete… thank you for bringing a big smile to our faces all day long! You are incredibly beautiful inside and out! We wish you many many many years of beautiful love together!

Huge thanks to the wedding professionals who came together to help make MaryKate and Pete’s Wedding so special!
