We love getting to travel for weddings – it is such an honor and a great change of pace for us.  We had the pleasure a few weeks ago to spend the weekend with Coty & Matt for their Kent Island wedding at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club.  Coty did an amazing job infusing a little seaside vintage into all aspects of her wedding, from delicate glass vases for the center pieces to antique postcards for guests to sign, from jute ropes and ball mason jars to nautical charts, the teal blues and soft champagnes with little touches of soft pinks – her attention to detail was amazing .  The beach side venue was a perfect location and I can’t believe we got to shoot another wedding where Charm City Cakes created a masterpiece!  A wedding isn’t just a conglomeration of beautiful things, however and it’s not what made their wedding special to be a part of.  The joy these two had and shared with everyone was fantastic.  From the time Coty walked down the isle with her father, I don’t think she or Matt quit beaming at one another the rest of the night.  It was sweet, it was infectious, and I hope it is a feeling that lasts a lifetime for them. We hope these tide you two over until we get everything up and running and congrats again!

Earlier this spring, Aynsley & Joe had an intimate wedding at the Indiana Hotel Lobby.  Aynsley’s rich hues of teals, purples, and greens really popped with the warm gold’s of the lobby of both the old Hotel and the Embassy!  Of all the details, the most endearing was her dress – handmade by her grandmother for her mother.  How cool is that?  As we are picking up speed into the season, this was a great, sweet wedding to help us work our way back in.  We especially loved the first look – doesn’t the Embassy make even the gentlest of moments look epic?  Congrats Ansley & Joe.Much more to come soon!

We’d been looking for just the right space— and it seems God had it waiting for us at just the right time.

We were so excited when we realized this space was for lease.  This building is amazing— one of the best spots in town in our opinion, and one we’ve had our eye on for quite some time. We looked at it in the morning and a couple hours later were ready to sign papers.  It took a lot to get to this point but we finally got moved in last week and have had a people in for ordering sessions, a client meeting, and our first senior session was there yesterday.  With the new space we will have some regular office hours, an indoor location to shoot at with a lot of cool options, a designated meeting space (that isn’t our house!) and one of the coolest new things that we will be able to offer is premiere sessions projected HUGE.  You’ll be able to see what actual size prints look like hanging on your wall.

We are still getting everything squared away and settled in, but it is time to finally make the announcement.  With the advent of the studio we plan to host new events like the Mommy & Me mini-sessions, so keep your eyes peeled for exciting new things from the Nest.  We are so grateful to all our amazing clients who have wowed us with your excitement, support and business.  Thank you for letting us share in your lives and thank you for sharing in ours!

Love this family, love their style, love how laid back they are, love their newest little guy!  I was so excited to hear Meredith and Adam were expecting again, a little boy this time, I’ve said it before but this definitely seems to be the season of the boy.  I had a great session with the family and big sister Reese was an absolute dream, I loved seeing how much she loves her baby brother!  Anyhow great seeing you all again.  So excited for you!  Enjoy a sneak peek.
