Ben and Brittany have a love that makes long distance seem like one block, they make love and devotion look as natural as breathing.  

At my first meeting with the two of them, it was clear how totally and completely in love they were with each other.  Each one made the other shine.  Once they decided that I was the photographer for them, we went on our first "date" :-).  I love getting to know my clients, it not only helps me to do a great job for them, but I love hearing the "how we met and fell in love" story.  I also learned they love to dance, laugh, have fun, ride bikes and take photos.  Their favorite type of pictures to do?  Jumping shots!  It just so happens that I love jumping shots as well and don't think they will ever get old in my mind, AND the first try of a jump shot with their entire wedding party...THEY NAILED IT!

Back to the ceremony... 

Ben and Brittany had a rustic, outdoor wedding on the grounds of Carl's Farm Place in Hughesville, Maryland.   Two friends sang Christina Perri's A Thousand Years as Brittany walked down the aisle.  I can absolutely confirm that I had tears rolling down my cheeks during this ceremony.  As a symbol of their devotion to each other and to God, they washed each other's feet.  It was a beautiful display of their love and commitment to each other and to God.

The most touching part I felt incredibly honored to photograph was their pre-ceremony prayer together.  We set it up so Ben wouldn't see her, and...here you go...

Throughout the ceremony, they laughed, cried and smiled with each other.
