Josephine & Russell’s Romantic Backyard Wedding in Howard County, MD

These two love birds said “I do” at a private residence outside of Columbia, MD, surrounded by their closest famiyl and friends. The whole day, it was evident how much love and support the couple was surrounded by. The family was busy, scurrying around to get items into place, helping the bride get dressed; you name it, they were on it! Just wait until you see the photos of the charcuterie board… After a sweet little intimate ceremony, with the officiant being a friend, the couple joined everyone inside for dinner and drinks.

What was for dinner you may wonder? Not only did they have amazing dishes prepared by Matthews 1600 but they also had some of the BEST pizza ever, made fresh by Pizza di Joey. The slight rain didn’t dampen the spirits of the day and it was truly magical.

I am in love with this beaded wedding gown from BHLDN!

What did I say about the charcuterie board?! Honestly, if I was a guest, I would have been here all night.

The joy on their faces as said their vows and placed the rings on each other’s fingers was so touching and heartfelt. I didn’t mind standing in the rain to capture these shots.

NOTE: Why I always suggest a second shooter! Max, my husband, was able to capture Josephine’s reaction while I captured Russell’s. No redo’s, all natural and genuine! See my packages for more information. MORE INFO >>

In the September of 2014, Max and I photographed Dianne and Mike’s beautiful, intimate backyard wedding. It is still one of our favorite weddings to date! Over the years, we have been fortunate enough to photograph different phases of their married life, including their pregnancy announcement! It was truly amazing to meet this beautiful rainbow baby. I truly hope that the Henderson’s enjoy looking back at these photos when Reid is growing up.

Their in-home session was laid back, stress free and all natural. Very little posing and direction needed! I wanted to capture them as they are now. If you are thinking about newborn or baby portraits, and are concerned your bundle of joy is too old or may not corporate at this point, don’t worry about it! Take the plunge, so you will have beautiful photos to look back on and remember these tender moments.
