Backyard Summer Wedding | New Jersey Wedding Photographer | Samantha & Mike

June 29, 2023 in Weddings

Getting married in your grandparents' backyard holds a unique and unparalleled charm. The towering old trees and viny greens were also the perfect backdrop for Samantha and Mike. Walking through their grandparent’s home, I couldn’t help but envision the little footsteps of generations before. Every corner is familiar, as if all of your family’s memories are present and whispering sweet nothings during the most precious day of your life.

Long Beach Island, New Jersey | Engagement | Katie + Jeremy

September 21, 2015 in Portraits

I met Katie and Jeremy at a wedding I photographed last fall (Lindsay + Michael on the blog here, and also featured on the Knot here). I promise I'm not exaggerating when I say I met some of the coolest people on this planet at that wedding. I'm thrilled that I get to see this group again and share in Katie and Jeremy's special day.

Happy New Year everyone!

I'm breaking in 2015 with this <insert drum roll here> Harry Potter themed wedding! Red and gold, sparkly shoes, magic wands, and even golden snitches for decor at dinner. Don't know what a golden snitch is? Clearly you've never played Quidditch.

This wonderful couple has been together for 11 years! They started dating when they were just 13 years old. They used to call themselves "hugging buddies". Probably one of the cutest things I've ever heard. And now they can officially call each other husband and wife.

Wishing you both many more years of love and happiness!

Special thanks to Michael Glenn Photography for shooting with me!
