HOT Steamy wedding in Cambridge MD
This entry was posted on 6/15/2008 6:23 PM and is filed under Weddings.
First and foremost - HAPPY FATHERS DAY! To all of those loving fathers out there - you are so important in our lives!
A couple of weeks ago, I was commissioned to photograph a wedding in Cambridge, MD for Amy and Eddie. The location was gorgeous. If you ever get a chance to travel down RT. 50 towards Ocean City, you MUST stop here and just look around. The Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Golf Resort, Spa and Marina is a wonderful location for weddings/receptions and even just to have a mini vacation.
The day was a sweltering 100 degrees and we stuck it out in ALL black clothing. BLACK absorbs so much heat - it is like a self made sauna. We made it through all of the heat and got some fantastic shots. Amy and Eddie were GREAT!
I have to thank my wonderful assistants (Leah, and Christine) and my trusty 2nd photographer Monica of The Smile Collector Photography.
Here are a few of my faves. There were SO many great ones to choose from and I have hundreds still to process ~ but I wanted to post some teaser images for my wonderful clients.
CONGRATS AMY & EDDIE
I saw the lines in the waiting area near the elevators and became inspired by the circular recessed ceiling.

Eddie waiting... before the ceremony

Amy's Grandmother was a trooper - that same week she had heart surgery and in order to go to her only Grandchild's wedding, she had a transfusion. It became emotional when her Grandmother hugged her while the bridal party was getting ready. Even though I was behind the lens to capture this moment - my eyes were filled with tears and could feel the emotions coming forward. This is one of the reasons I feel so lucky to do what I do. My clients chose me to record these special moments and I get to be a witness to one of the most important events in their lives...
At Grandma at the reception getting down with the bride! I just loved her sunglasses!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Look at Amy's eyes! They are ridiculously GORGEOUS! I wanted to hand color the flowers, and her eyes for an even more dramatic effect.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Amy & Eddie enlisted the help of these beautiful girls to be flower and petal girls.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These two newly-weds were on FIRE during our intimate portrait session!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Speaking of FIRES... ~ look at the dancing - they brought the heat to the reception.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These guys were so much fun ~ We wanted a FUN groomsmen portrait to remember!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Amy was BEAMING with happiness... this portrait was taken right after her finishing touches were added (before the ceremony).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The lovely rings. In a lovely setting...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AND last one for this post - How CUTE is he? He was part of the ceremony and what an adorable addition he was!
