Big thanks to the always amazing Kelly Prizel for having me out to second shoot Emily and Dre’s Brookside Gardens wedding… almost a year and a half ago. (There are a handful of weddings in my backlog that I’m finally getting to – a handful more and we’ll be into the latter half of 2012 – yay!) I just love Brookside. It’s an absolutely stunning place, close enough to DC to catch all the happy out-of-towner excitement to be in the nation’s capital, but far enough away from the city to really feel like you are in a beautiful garden oasis (maybe because you actually are). And then you throw in Emily and Dre being all adorable and thrilled to be getting married… it’s a pretty great combination.
Liz and Dave got married under an absolutely beautiful (and big) fall sky with their closest family and friends last week. You couldn’t have asked for a better day out of late November. Or a more cheerful, laid-back couple.
Gotta love a bride who takes a tequila shot before she walks down the aisle!
Okay, it’s true, it’s been nearly a year since I second-shot this wedding with the fantabulous Sarah Culver. But better late than never on the blogging, yes? I recall Margee and Andrew’s wedding as very elegant and very Christmasy (hey look, I have good timing!), with a big dose of deer heads thrown in for good measure. And going through my pictures, it is evident they had quite the raucous dance party as well.
