Hi, I'm Lauren! Welcome to my blog! I'm a Maryland wedding and portrait photographer that loves beautiful light and has an obsession with the water. This is my pretty little place to show off all of my most recent photography adventures and the stories behind them. So get comfy and have a look around!

Rosie + Jeremy : The Mansion at Valley Country Club Wedding {Maryland Wedding Photographer}

I love cheesecake!!  Not only because it’s super delicious, but it also brought these two lovebirds together.  Rosie and Jeremy met as coworkers at The Cheesecake Factory back in 2008, when Rosie was a hostess and Jeremy was a server.  They went on their first date on Rosie’s 21st birthday and the rest is yummy, delicious history, all leading up to their beautiful wedding at The Mansion at Valley Country Club where they committed their lives to each other.
One of my favorite things to do now is ask my brides and grooms what they love most about each other.  And then I love it even more when, after spending a little time with them, I can see exactly what they described in the other person.  Rosie told me, that with Jeremy, she loves his sense of humor and his ability to always cheer her up.  People seriously, if you need cheering up or need a good laugh, hang out with Jeremy.  He’s constantly being goofy and making faces (you will definitely see this later) and just spending time being happy.  Then Jeremy told me that, with Rosie, she is sweet and sincere and makes him feel loved even when they aren’t together.  He said that he often has coworkers ask him why he’s so happy all the time, even during stressful work days…..and she is the reason.   And then he added in at the end “Plus she’s hot”!   I won’t comment on the “she’s hot” part….ok whatever fine, she’s hot Jeremy…..but Rosie is one of those people that has sweetness running through her veins and you can’t help but love her…..even though you don’t want to because she’s hot.  Haha!  😉

Yes, Jeremy has a twin brother, Josh.  It’s not a camera or photoshop trick.  And yes, I got duped by them at the beginning of the day.  But we won’t talk about that.  Punks.  But I do have to talk for a second about the amazing Marisa, my second shooter for the day.  I feel bad for even putting some of these photos on my blog because some of the most gorgeous ones in this post were taken by her.  She kicked serious butt for me at this wedding when I got a little frazzled with running around having to take some of the required pictures and I asked her to do things like take some bridal portraits of Rosie in the bridal suite.  And her classic close-up sunflare portraits during the bride and groom portraits which I had 5 minutes for.  Legit only 5 minutes.  And I had to fight for that so that it wasn’t only 2.  Ugh.  Yeah.  Anyway, Marisa is the best.  🙂
