Brandon + Jessica Jeffers | The Anchor Inn | Pasadena, Maryland
With all of the humidity and hot weather we have had lately, I could never ask for better weather than Brandon and Jessica had on their wedding day at The Anchor Inn in Pasadena, Maryland. It was a little hot in the sun but we had an amazing breeze that came off of the water.
I had a fun, long conversation with Jessica the night before to discuss a few more wedding details. I was asking her about a couple of her vendors and she had mentioned that her bouquet, the bridesmaids bouquets, and the greenery for the arch and head table were all from Sam’s Club! I would have never guessed! Jessica planned for simple yet elegant details for her reception and it worked perfectly!! The minute she stepped into her dress, everyone’s eyes were wide open and teary at how amazing she looked. Her dress was meant for her.She did a first look with her dad and there was not a dry eye anywhere! Although Brandon and Jessica did not do a first look with each other, Brandon did one with his daughter London.
Brandon and Jessica met at a bar a little over 4 years ago when he sat next to her. After he sat down, the conversations began when she stole his beer. They don’t believe that it was love at first sight but she knew that she had to make a move. As time went on, they almost broke up but she wouldn’t allow it! She knew that he was the one and shortly after, he realized that he didn’t want to spend the rest of his without her. Brandon proposed to Jessica on New Year’s Eve in New Orleans when the fireworks were going off. Talk about the perfect time to pop the magical question! Now here they are, 10 months later, married and more in love than ever before! <3
Brandon + Jessica’s love advice: Be patient and enjoy the little moments.
It was such an honor to capture Brandon + Jessica’s wedding day! <3

Is there anything better than a maternity session on the beach…? (Hint: the answer is no…. lol) I vividly remember the day that Anna told me she was pregnant. I was just leaving base in Germany and pulled over since she was calling me on video. To say I was in disbelief is an […]

COVID-19 has definitely changed a lot this year in so many ways from how we style and celebrate milestones to how we socialize with friends and family. This past week Chandler asked me for some ideas of how to capture her birthday which just so happened to be the last day of her lock in […]

A little backstory before product photography came into my life… I started really getting into photographing other people when we were in Florida in 2015. We then moved to Maryland in December of 2015 and that is when my business grew. I had regular clients, weddings, second shot a lot of weddings, and finally began […]

I remember how terribly inconsistent I was with poses during an engagement session back when I started photography and my oh my.. Do you remember Anna? Back in July of 2016 I was invited to a styled shoot by a friend 30 minutes before it started. I ended up getting stuck in traffic on […]

One thing I have learned from this quarantine (as a family photographer) is that there is always more work that can be done to work on your craft. Even if that does not include shooting. I am going back through older sessions and came across this session with my best friend Natalie of Natalie Grace […]

If you are stationed in Germany, you have most likely been to Burg Lichtenberg at least a handful of times. This is one of my favorite castles to go to for family sessions. The kids love to run around and play and the adults can really take in the scenery around Burg Lichtenberg. Going to this […]
