welcome to the journal

Kelsey and Matt met in December 2013 through two mutual friends in Boston, Massachusetts. Matt was heading to New Jersey to visit family coming down from Maine when one of his friends invited him to a holiday party. 

Brit and Jon met at Manalapan High School where Brit was hired as a long term substitute for a physical education teacher.  Jon was the high school football coach.

They hit it off immediately, and they found that there days were intertwined because Brit had all of Jon’s students as her students.  She soon noticed that Jon was always popping his head into her class to “check in” on his players he would say! It soon became clear that he was actually checking on Brit! They soon started dating and after four years Jon decided to propose!

Alyssa and Jeff first met in Ms. Sorrentino’s freshman year chemistry class. Jeff was immediately smitten, but Alyssa kept him at arm’s length for three years!  Eventually she relented, and they started dating senior year of high school.  

Peter grew up in Virginia and Courtney is from New Jersey so when Courtney chose Virginia Tech to go to college, little did she know she would meet the man she would marry!  They just so happened to both attend  a Hurricane Sandy Relief event where they ended up going to dinner together with mutual friends and ended up sharing a cab home.  Courtney tell Peter that he had her laughing the whole ride home!

April had always dreamt about her wedding day since she was a little girl.  She thought about every detail!  What her dress would look like and what kind of pretty shoes she would wear.  

The weddings from 2017 were just amazing!  The friendships we made were so special to us!  I have to think each and every time we capture a wedding, what those images will mean not only to the couple, but to their families…….

Jessica and Adam have known each other since their high school days.  They both went their separate ways since then leaving many years between ever seeing each other again.  Both of them had pursued their careers and dreams, had other relationships, but never quite found their soulmates; until now……

Dominique and Kevin met six years ago on a snowy ski trip in Scranton, PA.  Both of their best friends invited them on the trip, little did they know that these friends arranged it so they could be totally alone on the ski lift……….

Susie and Tim lived just two miles from each other and were always in each other’s lives.  Chance encounters at baseball games, Christmas tree farms, and church, their lives seemed destined to be together……..
