JOCELYN + MIKE // WEDDING

Rob — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 02:53:28 +0000

I have to admit I had been looking forward to Jocelyn and Mike’s Crisfield, Maryland wedding for the past few months. During their engagement shoot Mike told me his son Josh was going to be the best man… I should probably mention Josh is four. The ceremony was held at Mt. Pleasant United Methodist Church right in the heart of downtown Crisfield. After the ceremony, Jocelyn and Mike spared a few minutes to take a few photos by the city docks. The reception followed at the Crisfield Elks Lodge where the girls certainly outdid the guys in breaking it down on the dance floor. The best man’s toast was probably one of the best I’ve heard in a while…. Quick, honest and to the point. Best of luck to the new family!

SARAH + LUKE // ENGAGEMENT

Rob — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 00:26:39 +0000

It’s not often you get the opportunity to work for your peers let alone your competition. Needless to say I was excited and nervous about shooting Sarah and Luke’s engagement session in Ocean City, Maryland. You see Sarah and Luke are both firefighters in Bethany Beach, Delaware and I’m a firefighter in Ocean City, Maryland. Our departments work and train together often so I’ve seen this couple getting down and dirty… on the fire ground that is. So the competition…. Sarah is also a photographer here on the Eastern Shore. I think we picked one of the hottest days of the summer to shoot their engagement photographs, it had to be at least 100 degrees. You would think living here at the beach you would get used to the temperature… not so much. We met at Northside Park in Ocean City and actually stumbled upon an Art show taking place in the park. While we fought the heat we certainly grabbed some amazing shots that definitely brought out the personality in this couple. Their wedding at Baywood Greens in Long Neck, Delaware this fall is certain to be one to remember. Cheers to you both!

LAURA + CHUCK // ENGAGEMENT

Rob — Sat, 15 May 2010 02:35:09 +0000

Laura, Chuck and I met at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels, Maryland to shoot their engagement photos. As luck would have it our initial shoot was cancelled due to rain and the second time ended up being the charm. The Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum was a special place for both of them because it was the location of one of their first dates. I can’t tell you how excited I was to meet these education professionals and spend a few hours getting to know them better. If the engagement shoot was any indication of how much fun these two are, their wedding is going to be off the hook. Laura and Chuck are planning a summer wedding on a family farm in Preston, Maryland. Best wishes to you both!

MEREDITH + JEFF // ENGAGEMENT

Rob — Tue, 04 May 2010 20:50:16 +0000

Meredith, Jeff and I met up on the beach and boardwalk in Ocean City, Maryland to shoot their engagement photos. Ocean City is one of my favorite places to shoot engagement photos or wedding photos for that matter, I mean who wouldn’t love shooting at the beach right? Every time I’m at this location I always try and shoot it differently and that’s exactly what happened with this awesome couple. Our original plan was to shoot the day before but mother nature didn’t allow it so we dropped back and punted for the very next morning. While there was no rain in sight, the wind off the ocean was incredible. Nevertheless Meredith and Jeff were troopers and we stomped all over the downtown area and wrapped up at this little gem of a location on the bayside in midtown Ocean City. I am definitely looking forward to my first beach wedding of the season and my first wedding ceremony at Assateague Island National Seashore in Berlin, Maryland. Wishing you both many years of happiness!

JOCELYN + MIKE // ENGAGEMENT

Rob — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 20:20:36 +0000

I met up with Jocelyn and Mike at the Boardwalk in Ocean City, Maryland to photograph their engagement session on Easter Sunday. I always get excited shooting engagement photos because it’s usually the first time I get an opportunity to work with my clients. Since it’s unlikely that most people have ever worked with a professional photographer, it’s natural they might feel a bit nervous about having their photograph taken in a public setting. Since the wedding day is not the best time to realize those additional pressures, working with me to capture engagement photographs allows them to become more comfortable in front of the camera (and in front of other people). This experience also gives us time to establish a personal relationship. During this engagement session we all have a great time and you will be able to get to know me better both personally and professionally. Jocelyn and Mike were no exception to the rule. From bumper cars at Trimper’s Rides and Amusement Park to trying on funky sunglasses we had a lot of fun walking all around the beach and Boardwalk in Ocean City. It’s couples like this when I realize this is why I do this job…. Documenting life stories and sharing them with their family and the world. Jocelyn and Mike’s wedding in Crisfield, Maryland is sure to be a blast!

JENNIE AND PATRICK ENGAGEMENT ~ ST. MICHAELS

Rob — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 06:03:36 +0000

We met up with Jennie and Patrick in St. Michaels to shoot their engagement photos. This was actually our second try shooting at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. On our first attempt a few weeks earlier, Mother Nature showed her ugly side and we got rained out. I have to admit I was a little nervous it might happen again as I was driving in but we lucked out and got some stellar stuff. The Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum was special to the couple because that’s where Patrick proposed. Their Stevensville, Maryland wedding will surely be a blast. Congrats!

KIRBY AND MICHAEL’S ENGAGEMENT ~ SNOW HILL

Rob — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 18:19:36 +0000

Kirby, Michael and I hooked up at the River House in Snow Hill, Maryland to shoot their engagement photos. What a neat place to shoot and what a cute couple. After a few dozen frames Michael started to loosen up and turned on the smile. Not even the on and off rain typical of Eastern Shore weather could stop the fun we had at this e-session. No doubt will their May 09 wedding at Whatcoat United Methodist Church in Snow Hill be a blast. Congrats guys!
