Morghan and Ben






 





  







 

 

















It was a cold, wintry day in Mifflintown (Mifflintown? Who knew?) in a beautiful, rustic barn. Morghan was dressed in her pressed, white dress, which was designed by herself and made by her father. Ben was eagerly waiting to wed his beautiful and vibrant bride in a ceremony which was officiated by her father. Yep, her dad made her dress. Yep, her dad walked her down the aisle. Yep, her dad officiated the ceremony of his eldest daughter. It was a sincere and tender ceremony. The reception was perfect down to every detail. Handmade bouquets of newspaper flowers. Centerpieces of tall, slender branches adorned with paper ornaments. Antique china dinnerware laying on each table. Bread bowls that had been stacked neatly in old suitcases, waiting patiently to be filled with delicious homemade soups. And the crowd was no snooze. The dancing was non-stop. I saw moves on those barn-wood beams that I don't think I've ever seen before. It was fun. I hope these images have done it justice. Congrats Morghan and Ben. Cheers to the rest of your lives together!

Sam & Brandon









  























  





 


As time passes it is so fun to see my friends and their families expanding, growing, and making more of their own history and memories. I get to document these stages and, in some small way, be part of their journey, helping them freeze time. When they're old and their children have grown and started families of their own, their will be moments that they stare at photographs that I've taken and it will take them back to that place. Joy-filled and nostalgic. A piece of their beautiful story. This is another part of Sam and Brandon's beautiful story that I am honored to have been part of. Thank you.

Becca and Sam





 











 


 

 













Becca and Sam were married on a chilly, but lovely Fall day in Harrisburg. The dreamy, overcast lighting allowed me to breathe a sigh of relief as I captured the couple and their lively bunch of guests. Summary: beautiful bride, charming groom, fun-loving families, gorgeous Fall leaves. Making me look good. Congrats Becca and Sam!
