WELCOME TO OUR BLOG! 

Well here goes nothing.......

We have read EVERYWHERE that the best advertisement for a photography business is a blog (and good work and word of mouth of course) - and although we're pretty sure only my dad will be reading this (hi dad! :), we finally decided to bite the bullet and start one.

Both Jas and I plan on updating the blog, with personal and business entries - whatever we're in the mood for! Come back and visit us - and leave a comment or two!!

Later alligator :)

Pamela & Scott

A couple of weeks ago, Jason spent a beautiful end-of-summer/beginning-of-fall day shooting Pamela and Scott's wedding. Pamela and Scott love Baltimore (if you remember, they traipsed all around Mt. Vernon for their engagement session) and their wedding absolutely reflected their love for the city. The ceremony was outside at Federal Hill, and the reception followed at the Rusty Scupper restaurant, so luckily the sun was shining and it was a gorgeous day! Pamela did SUCH a nice job with all of the ceremony and reception details. It was a Baltimore-themed wedding, complete with chocolate favors shaped like crabs and adorable fans (to help guests stay cool) with Baltimore facts on them. There were gorgeous blue and yellow details everywhere - daisies marking the aisle, glass jars filled with lemonheads to hold signs, yellow m&ms and starburst, fresh vodka lemonade as a refreshment...the list goes on and on, but I'll stop here :) They are a beautiful couple and it was a beautiful day!

Congratulations Pamela & Scott!

Seeing each other for the first time.....

Dess & Nino - Day After Session

As I said in Dess & Nino's wedding day post, Jason, Dess & Nino planned a special "Day-After" session (even though it was a couple of days after) for bride and groom portraits. They went back to the Mountain Branch Country Club golf course where the reception took place to take the pictures - and they turned out great.

Introducing....Mr. and Mrs. Delossantos

Dess & Nino

You may remember Dess & Nino from their stylish and colorful engagement shoot a couple of months ago. And as stylish as that was, their wedding took the cake :) From the bridesmaids' dresses being different shades of green to the groom and all of the groomsmen wearing black and white converse, the subtle details of their wedding made it beautiful, laid-back, unique and fun all at the same time. In planning out the wedding day timeline, Dess & Nino decided they didn't want to miss out on the festivities while doing bridal portraits of the two of them, so instead, Jason, Dess and Nino went out a couple of days later for a bride and groom session....those pics are coming up soon. In the meantime, here is a peek into Dess & Nino's special day:

It is always nice when Jason gets to see past brides and grooms - thanks for the referral Topher and Estelle!

I'll leave you with  this final image of Dess and Nino on their wedding night....check out the slideshow below to see their special day unfold, and don't forget to check out their Day After Session.

Thanks to Fred for assisting (but I'm going next time - hee hee :).
