Chris and Becky

The weekend before last I had the privilege of photographing Chris and Becky's wedding in beautiful Flintstone, MD. They held their ceremony at Rocky Gap Resort which was a beautiful location. It is located on a lake with large hills in the background and the leaves were changing.

They chose to have "first glance" - which is so awesome. This is when the couple sees each other before the ceremony. Aside from me, they're alone and can express their thoughts and excitement upon seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day. It is a special time to share. I stand back and just capture the emotions and allow the couple some privacy. Most couples don't realize that when they see each other for the first time at the ceremony, their thoughts are overflowing but they can't really talk at that point. First Glance is a special moment and I'm glad Chris and Becky chose to have it.

These are just four of the images I've selected to share. The first is Becky's flowers - I know it's at a different angle, but I like it. The second image is at the first glance moment. The third is Becky walking down the aisle, so to speak and the last is their first kiss as husband and wife.
