Krista and Ben’s Friday night wedding was everything you’d dream of for a summer wedding! Perfect weather, good food, all your favorite people, a beautiful golden hour and your dog by your side!! Their family and friends traveled from southern PA to be with these two as they got married in their new home of […]
Laura & Paul are the type of people that immediately feel like you’ve been friends with forever…they are so laid back, kind and caring and are so much fun to be around! Last summer when these two drove down from Connecticut for their engagement session and I knew their wedding was going to be amazing! […]
It all started in the physical trainer’s office at the Montrose Area High School…Katherine got hurt while playing volleyball with her Blue Ridge team so was in icing her foot when Dylan came in from his team’s spaghetti dinner with some cookies. He offered her one to cheer her up and sent her a message […]
I’ll never forget June 1, 2013 when I photographed my first wedding. It was the hottest day of the year, but I didn’t even feel it. I was on a high and ran around like crazy that day soaking in every single moment. It was that day that I found what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. It’s so hard to put into words what happened that day but I still remember how happy I was that day.
Olivia was one of the first seniors I had photographed the year before and when they asked me to photograph their wedding, I dove into learning as much as I could about wedding photography. I was thrilled and also so nervous, thinking here they are trusting a 15 year old who had never photographed a wedding to photograph their special day, I need to do a good job!
The wedding was at the Mitchell Family barn right outside of Montrose and they transformed it into a dreamy venue with details galore. The day was stunning, from the vows, to the fun dances, to the special guests. They had a couple different live bands playing throughout the reception, Amish family friends catered the food, and they even had a little petting zoo for the kids. It was a FUN wedding, anyone who knows the family, they love to have fun so this is no surprise that Olivia’s wedding would be fun for everyone!
I think I smiled all day long, my face hurt from being SO happy. I never doubted what I wanted to do after that day and it was the start of chasing hard after that dream!
Olivia & JM, thank you for taking a chance and trusting me to capture your wedding day! You will never know how grateful I am for that opportunity!
Here’s a little walk down memory lane with photos from the first wedding I photographed…
That photo above is of me, cheesing so hard, because I was so happy that day. Not going to lie, I’m pretty sure I still cheese all day at weddings, because I still love them!
