Share a little bit about the two of you?
When we first met, we immediately bonded over our love of books (hence why we’re getting married in a library!) It was so easy for us to talk, spend time together, and be ourselves with each other. Even with some of the stresses of life (changing jobs, buying a house, planning a wedding) there is never a moment we aren’t grateful we have each other. We are so excited to get married!
What was really important to you when looking for a photographer?
We both wanted someone who was going to be able to capture the authentic moments of connection at our wedding–between the two of us of course, but also moments with our family and friends! We wanted to avoid the typical posed/scripted photos for something real. (Which is why we are so glad we found you, Angie!)
Were you nervous/excited about your engagement session?
Definitely both. Neither of us had ever done something like that before, but it was great to get more comfortable with being photographed before the wedding. It was ultimately so much fun and we love our photos!
How did you decide your venue?
We went to the Athenaeum on one of our first dates together. It’s a very special place for both of us.
Share a little bit about the two of you?
We’re just two weirdos getting married on Friday the 13th with a zombie wedding cake. What’s there to say beyond that? Brian asked me to add that he said, “Nailed it!”
What was really important to you when looking for a photographer?
We wanted someone who could cut past our camera awareness and captured who we are in our element.
Were you nervous about your engagement session?
A little – neither of us love having our picture taken. It was easy once we realized all we had to do is relax and talk about breakfast cereal.
How did you decide your venue?
The idea for an engagement shoot started with when we wanted pictures of us burying our bottle of whiskey for our reception. It seemed only natural to turn into a mini photoshoot around the brewery and reception hall as well since they are both so unique.
