For outdoor ceremonies, bright sun is often a challenge. Loved that this bride and groom embraced the sun and sunglasses for the entire bridal party. They had the bridal party lay their sunglasses on their chairs in advance of the ceremony so they were there to be worn during the ceremony. It made for a fun detail shot!

You’ve seen a few sneak peeks from Max and Karen’s ceremony and here are a few photos from our bride and groom only time. Usually after the ceremony and formal photos I try to spend at least 30 minutes with the bride and groom alone. I love this time – love watching the bride and groom hang out with one another for the first time as husband and wife. Love watching the groom admiring the bride’s dress and hearing their stories about how the day unfolded as they got ready for the wedding. It gives them a minute to talk and visit before heading back to celebrate with the wedding party. And it makes for fun, relaxed and memorable photos.
These two really are seriously cute together. The way they look at one another, the way Max fluffed Karen’s dress for the photos and how excited they obviously were to be together. Love these photos!

Love the details from this beautiful wedding on the Eastern Shore. The location is the Baywood Bed and Breakfast, which sits on the edge of the Chesapeake Bay. The ceremony took place on the back lawn overlooking the water and the weather was beautiful. I love Max and Karen’s details and colors – coral and brown really pop and go so well together. Without further ado, here are some sneak peek looks at their ceremony. Detail photos and more bride and groom photos coming, too!
You know I’m a sucker for vintage details and I loved the paper flowers attached to the last row of chairs. The second photo just felt to me like it was from another time and place – love how together they look straight out of the 1960s.
Karen’s bouquet is beautiful. Her veil and the flowers in her hair are perfect with her dress.
Each bridesmaid accessorized her dress differently and it added a personal touch to the look. The maid of honor carried a bouquet similar to the bride’s but smaller and the rest of the bridesmaids carried bouquets with more of a wildflower look that matched their coral dresses. Love!
The lace detail on Karen’s dress makes it one of my favorites from this year so far!
The ceremony took place while the sun was still relatively bright, so the bridal party had sunglasses waiting on the seats for them. It added character and an air of fun informality in addition to being very helpful!
Love the expressions on their faces in this one.
Really liked the combination of chocolate brown with coral for the wedding party.

You captured the love between them beautifully. I love all the smiles. Very sweet couple 
One of the most common questions clients ask me is “What should I wear?” Below is the Fall/Winter “What to Wear” guide to get you started. These combinations are really just to get you thinking – your style mileage should vary! The point is to inspire you – family clothes don’t have to be matchy matchy and kids don’t have to wear their Sunday best to hit a fashion high note. I am in love with the fashions this fall and I’ll bet you are, too. Classic style with a retro flavor, ruffles and gorgeous necklaces are in vogue and look gorgeous on every body. Listed below the photos is the info for each of the outfits and where you can buy the looks or something similar to them. Some website are listed below that to get you in the mood to shop not only for your session but for some beautiful fall clothes!
Family Mini Session attendees – these ideas may come in handy for planning your session wardrobe. And if you’d like to schedule a mini portrait session on October 9, please do so this week, as I anticipate filling the final remaining spots this week.
