Sarah and Brett…together at last
Tuesday, August 12th, 2008Baltimore Harbor played host to Sarah and Brett’s big day last weekend. I have known Sarah since she was in 7th grade and was so sad to miss her wedding as I am just finishing up my maternity leave. I was able to shoot their engagement session a few months back, so that is my consolation prize.
It was a beautiful…HOT…summer day on the water. Sarah looked amazing! I love wedding dresses, but I don’t think I have ever been in love with the back of a wedding dress! The way the dress gathered asymmetrically and how the train fell was just stunning.
Ryan and my brother-in-law, Joe, were with Brett and Sarah every step of the way. Ryan’s other brother, Dan, was in charge of spinning the tunes during the reception on board the yacht. So you could say it was a Portnoy media trio! It pays to marry into a talented family!
Sarah and Brett, I am so sorry I missed such an awesome wedding. I have had so much fun editing your images and pretending I was aboard with all the fun. I hope Belize was relaxing for you both before your big move to Colorado. We pray God’s blessing on your marriage together and look forward to seeing you when you are back visiting!
Enjoy my favorite picks of the day!
Is she not the prettiest girl? Her hair, those eyes and pouty lips!
Upsy daisy!
I can imagine this red couch plays host to all sorts of pictures. It is no exception here. Is there a happier color? I just couldn’t decide what I like best so here are a few.
You can’t have a reception in Baltimore harbor and not have seafood!
I love the pansy’s in the salad..nice touch.
I really like this next series that Joe took. Bravo Joe!
Somebody got some cake smashed in her face…
This picture absolutely cracks me up. Somebody forgot the ceilings were a little low in the boat. The reactions around the scene are just hilarious. Sorry Brett, I just had to add this moment to the mix!
Kathryn: elegance and grace
Sunday, August 10th, 2008Those are the two words that stuck out when photographing Kathryn. She has such an amazing composure about herself and graceful body control. I had just seen the movie “Atonement” a few days before shooting Kathryn and I was reminded constantly of that 30’s era when I looked at her.
Kathryn married her love on August 2nd. We have been sitting on these photos for a few months. One of the stinky parts about bridal portraits…you can’t release the photos until the bride is married! Apparently, brides don’t like it when you debut their look before the big day…go figure!
So here is Kathryn in all of her elegant glory.
I love these.
