Sometimes, couples want BOTH the courthouse ceremony and the big wedding, and to that I say, why not?

J&J decided to get married at the Baltimore City Courthouse two days prior to their big New Years Eve ceremony at in PA. Our morning was complete with an intimate ceremony, photos, and cocktails.

And best of all? They went to to celebrate at the end of it all. 🍸

I personally love to know what other photographers are buying gear wise, so here's a few things I upgraded this quarter to better serve my people + intentionally upgrade my work and the experiences I deliver. ✉️

So often do we only focus on photographing the big moments in our lives: proposals, weddings, launching our brands, or having a baby. But here's to being intentional about the time we have with the pets we love too. 🤍

It’s not just about capturing what they look like, it’s about preserving who they are. The way they lean into your touch, the softness in their eyes, and the small movements that highlight their individual personality.

Here's 's Harper in all of his glory. I loved meeting this sweet little fellow. 📷
