Maryland Wedding Photography :|: Mike & Kim Get Hitched!

Tiffany — Tue, 15 May 2012 18:18:37 +0000

I had the pleasure of photographing Mike and Kim’s Chesapeake Bay wedding as my first East Coast wedding! These two world travelers stayed fairly close to their home in D.C. for their beautiful ceremony and reception at the Chesapeake Bay Foundation in Annapolis, MD; but they already have big plans for their honeymoon in Mexico and other future traveling adventures. Even though their guest list wasn’t small, Mike and Kim’s wedding still felt intimate and laid back; they really got a chance to visit and connect with most of their guests. There was a pretty good chance of rain that day but we were able to stay dry for the most part. As soon as the ceremony began though, the sound of raindrops on the roof of the tent made many of the guests feel that Kim’s dad’s spirit was letting everybody know that he was there, part of Kim and Mike’s special day. Although there were some emotional moments during the ceremony and later during the toasts, the mood of the day was light and happy… a truly joyous celebration of two people in love and starting a great life together.

Diana and Joe opted for a first sighting before their ceremony, which I always love being a part of. They had an October wedding filled with lovely autumn themed details and richly colored flowers that I thought would be fun to share for those brides planning a fall wedding. They planned their engagement session as a summer shoot which provided a nice variety of seasonal shots; in case you missed it: Diana and Joes’s Engagement Shoot

It was a successful contest month and the competition was tough for our “Inspire Me Bride” contest giveaway. We have reviewed the submissions, tallied the inspiration board votes on A Monique Affair’s Facebook page, checked the requirement, and have come up with our winner. We would like to congratulate LINDSEY POND. Her wedding ideas will be the theme of a future styled shoot. Giving her some tough competition we’d like to make mention of our runner up contestant with CATHY CHAN. Both ladies did a beautiful job and had some great ideas. Take a look at their work for yourself and admire the beauty.

As part of the grand prize Adeline & Grace Photography and A Monique Affair will be working on an amazing styled shoot inspired by Lindsey Pond’s wedding ideas, soon to be posted to our website. We’d like to take a moment to thank all of our participants and let all our followers know to be on the look-out for our next “Inspire Me Wedding Board Contest” details coming soon.

Additionally, I wanted to give a quick shout out the creative team that will be assisting us in bringing the winning inspiration board to life in our styled photo shoot. This list of sponsors is subject to change as more people join our creative team:
