The perfect day

Chris and Lindsay celebrated their 10 years anniversary with the perfect vow renewal ceremony! They were joined by their closest family and friends to share their love once again. 

Lindsay chose the perfect party favors, flowers, and details for the day. 

Chris and Lindsay are proud parents of two lovely children. They were so excited to be part of their parents special day.

Their ceremony was full of laughter and a happy tears. Both children helped by reading to the crowd, and helping with the tie ceremony. 

The rain held out long enough for us to snap a couple photos of the Chris and Lindsay before the party began!

Cheers to many more years of Love you two!!! Thanks for having us photograph such a special moment in time!

A beautiful Wedding with the most lovely Bride

I always like to check in with my brides to see what photograph or moment captured mattered the most to her. Recently I captured a very small video clip of a father walking his daughter to be married. There were so many photos that she loved, but in particular, she cried as she watched this beautiful moment. 

It reminds me that my journey as a wedding photographer doesn't stop at photographing beautiful images from the day. Even the smallest video clips add a little icing to the cake! 

Paul & Nichole's Wedding | Wedding Photography | Courtland Mansion | Winter Wedding

Paul & Nichole have been planning their wedding for two years. They couldn't wait for their New Year's Eve Wedding at the Courtland Mansion in Hagerstown, MD. I absolutely love the romance of a winter wedding, and NYE was the perfect date! 

Nichole has dreampt of this day since she was a child. She put so much thought into every detail. All of her ideas came to fruition and it was magical to see. 

I've never seen a more excited bride. She couldn't wait to marry Paul and enjoy her wedding day.

The one thing Paul and Nichole really hoped for was a dusting of snow. They even considered bringing a snow machine. Lucky for them, we received a dusting of snow the day before their wedding!

Congratulations Paul and Nichole. Thank you for choosing Hypnotic Imagery, LLC for your wedding photography. Tina and I had a wonderful time!!!

Jeremy & Heather | Clearville, PA | Wedding Photography

Jeremy and Heather met while camping with a group of friends many years ago. It was so fitting to their love of the outdoors when they chose the Creekside Resort as their wedding venue. As Tina and I drove to the venue, we traveled what seemed like miles of winding roads through the forest with no houses to be seen. We both agreed that this was going to be the perfect outdoor location for their wedding. 

After Jeremy & Heather exchanged rings, I watched an old tradition for the first time. The "Jumping the Broom" is a ceremony in which the bride and groom, signify their entrance into a new life and their creation of a new family by symbolically "sweeping away" their former single lives, and jumping over the broom to enter upon a new adventure as wife and husband. 

After the ceremony Jeremy and Heather rode in the most beautiful horse drawn carriage to enjoy their first moments as husband and wife privately. This is something I encourage all of my couples to consider. 

The bridal party photos were so much fun to capture. This image was captured between takes and happens to be one of my favorites. It totally showcases each individuals personality. As a photographer, this is what I always hope to capture. The moment when everyone relaxes and enjoys being present with one another. 

My absolute favorite part of the wedding day is the Bride and Groom portraits. Capturing their love for one another in a romantic way with a beautiful private location is amazing to witness.  

Jeremy & Heather, we wish you the best! Thank you for choosing Hypnotic Imagery, LLC for your wedding photography. It was an amazing day!

Jen and Adam say "I do" at the lovely Historic Savage Mill Manor

Jen and Adam celebrated their wedding at the Historic Savage Mill Manor.  

Bride and groom

The house was buzzing with activity when we got there.  Jens bridesmaids, her 2 sisters and Adams sister, helped her into her dress and shoes. While Adam was taking deep breaths and pacing the floors in a room just down the hall. 

Before the ceremony Jen and Adam met for a quiet moment together. Adam didn't want to see the dress he just wanted to hold her hand.

As the door opened, Adam closed his eyes and waited. His smile grew wider and wider with each step. 

First touch

When their hands touched he let out the breath he had been holding. 

This moment was just what they needed to kick off their life together.  Jen and Adam thank you so much for including us to share in the magic of this day.
