When Dorsie said she and Jason decided to hire me as their wedding photographer I was super excited.
Unlike most of my bride and grooms, we didn’t meet at Starbucks — we met at my friend Nikki’s (Jason’s cousin) wedding. What better way to meet, than with an adult beverage in hand, movin’ to the music? haha!!
When I went to Gloucester for their engagement session, I got to hang with the two of them (and their adorable fur babies!!!) and I got to know them as a couple. I immediately knew I was going to love photographing their wedding. They were just so super laid back and so welcoming! I really lucked out with these two peaches! 😉
Their love for the water was a big component in not only their engagement session, but also their wedding day!
From the ceremony site, to the decor…The.details.were.on.point. Every little thing was thought out, and it looked SO amazing. And SO them!
The rain may have cut portraits short, but the night went on without a hitch and everyone had an amazing time!!!
Dorsie & Jason,
THANK YOU for having me and trusting me to be your wedding photographer!!
