Jennifer and John were married at the United States Naval Academy in the midst of a huge parade on a hazy, hot summer day. It was cool and lovely inside the chapel and we managed to have a fabulous time with portraits around the Academy despite the heat. We arrived at the Beach Club in time for sunset and a fantastic party! Click the link at the bottom for even more images.

Shannon and Joe were married at the beautiful United States Naval Academy chapel in Annapolis. After a lovely full mass, we had some time for family photographs and portraits of Shannon and Joe around campus before we headed to the Loews Annapolis Hotel for their celebration.

The Loews Hotel looked absolutely gorgeous with an outdoor dinner setup where Shannon and Joe enjoyed toasts and their first dance. Later as darkness fell, the party moved to the Power House which was lit dramatically with a nightclub atmosphere so that guests could enjoy music, dancing, and a chocolate fountain on three floors!

Alyson and Matt were married on Memorial Day weekend at the United States Naval Academy Chapel. Alyson’s uncle escorted her down the aisle and after saying their vows, the newlyweds had a memorable sword exit! After family portraits and some time for images of Alyson and Matt alone, we headed off via trolley to the reception at the N* Room at the Navy Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. We had a fabulous time with the beautiful weather, intimate reception, and enthusiastic sparkler send-off!

Shannon and Joe met us for an engagement session at the USNA where they will marry this summer!

Jim and Christine have a fascinating story. They first met over twenty years ago when Jim was on the USNA sailing team and Christine was on vacation with her family in Michigan. After spending time together, Jim inadvertently left his jacket behind when the sailing team departed early for Chicago. Christine, being a very conscientious young woman, drove to Chicago to bring Jim back his jacket.

As the years passed, Christine and Jim found themselves moving in different directions and each married and had children. Years later, they reunited and joined their two beautiful families together during a beautiful ceremony at the US Naval Academy Chapel. Dinner at the USNA Club was followed by some very sentimental toasts by their children and lively dancing by everyone in attendance!
