Aimee and Richard got married in the woods. Basically everyone they know contributed something to the wedding - from the cake to the officiant, their wedding was about as personalized as it is possible to be. I found out that Aimee made (almost?) every decoration at the lodge and crafted *three* pieces of jewelery for each of her bridesmaids. Her craftiness is the stuff of legend.
Their DIY wedding was humble and warm and lovely. It was an honor to photograph it.
Aimee's mom is so unbelievably cute. She teared up a bit when she saw Aimee in her dress. *sigh* This is the kind of moment that makes wedding photography sing for me.
I was fortunate to have the awesome Doug Pettway along for the ride. Doug caught some of the guy action and there's a few other photos of his sprinkled in here and there. Thanks again Doug!
I love Aimee's glance into the circle right before it was time for everybody to start walking.
Aimee and Richard did their thing at Camp Puh'Tok up in Monkton, MD. I was soooo digging the giant eagle over their ceremony site in the council ring. Not too many people can say their wedding was presided over by a massive eagle.
Pretty sure this is the point where I told them to look happy, but not "short bus" happy.
I had to fight the bees for this tree. I won.
Turns out Aimee sings in a band! This girl does everything.
Great wedding day coverage, Amber! Really love the ones of them sitting on the steps.
Wonderful images, Amber! Love the intimacy of the celebration as well as the location and her dress. Beautiful!

Love the work, Amber. Thanks for having me out. 🙂
Such a great venue! I love how relaxed this wedding was.
What an awesome location!! I like the last one, the light painting gives it a subtle, but neat effect….
Lovely pictures! Especially love with them sitting on the steps, super cute 🙂 and that venue is awesome.
what a gorgeous casual wedding, you’ve captured the mood quite well, they look so relaxed and happy in every photo. love the last shot. great job!
That last shot is money. Love the emotions you have captured!
Amazing venue and beautifully captured, good job!
That last light painting shot is very cool! My favorite has to be the shot of Aimee and her mom hugging, though. Nice work all around!
Love it – you really were able to show the style and ‘vision’ of this wedding through the photos. Awesome job (love the last light painting one 😉
These are beautiful Amber. Love the venue and the relaxed atmosphere throughout!
