Woodloch Resort Wedding: Renae & Shamus
I was very lucky to book Renae and Shamus for their late October wedding at the Woodloch Resort in Hawley, PA, as Renae is actually a blogger bride for a popular wedding website/forum called, “It’s a Bride’s Life!” For those of you who aren’t familiar, the site’s...
Sovereign Performing Arts Center Wedding
All of you may remember Erin and "the Matter" from maybe my most well-known shoot to date... Alice in Wonderland! Over the past several months, there has actually been a lot of skepticism over whether Erin was a "real bride," haha, not only because she played the...

Garden Room Wedding, Loveland, Colorado: Amanda & Will
Amanda is a self-proclaimed “girly girl” through and through. She is quick to laugh, and yesterday, quick to cry also. It would have been hard to imagine her being anything but a giant ball of emotion when she is marrying an awesome guy like Will. Will has a great...
