DetailsLauren and Nic started their Chesapeake City Wedding by taking a few pictures in the garden and along the water behind the Shipwatch Inn.

Along the canal, in Pell Gardens, and from the local restaurants are some of the places …
DetailsFor Amy and Ryan’s engagement photos at the beautiful Dupont Country Club, we picked the hour before sunset. For all outdoor photography, timing and the angle of light from the sun is a very important factor. Dupont Country Club is a very well kept golf course located in Wilmington Delaware, and it …

DetailsThe grounds where the ceremony was set up for Adam and Kelley’s wedding at the Blue Max Inn in Chesapeake City, Maryland looked beautiful. Great weather along with the old trees and historic buildings of Chesapeake City provided me with great light to work with, and created the needed shade for all of the wedding guests and the bride and groom.
