A Country Wedding in Chesapeake
This wedding really took me back. A sweet country wedding in Chesapeake, right in the backyard to my old stomping grounds! I’ll have to say that driving on those crazy back roads (probably a little faster than recommended) in Hickory was just as fun as it was when I was 17. I met Ashley at their home out there to capture some getting-ready details and then headed back towards Deep Creek to Sir Izaak Walton Park for the ceremony and reception.
The Most Beautiful Day
It was a perfect fall day for an outdoor country wedding with great temperatures and just enough clouds to give us some great diffused light for photos. The park is nestled behind residential neighborhoods and is right on the water. It has a little walkway over the marsh that was perfect for viewing the gorgeous sunset we had.
True Love
This wedding was a true celebration of love. Todd & Ashley met when a mutual friend introduced them and quickly fell head over heals for each other. Now, with children from previous marriages and a little one together, they make the cutest “little” family. The two of them coming together so strongly and with such obvious love, is an amazing act of fate, and after getting to know them over the last few months, I can definitely say that this day was meant to be.
