MARYLAND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER | HILLENDALE COUNTRY CLUB | ELIZABETH & CHRISTIAN
Elizabeth and Christian were wonderful to work with. They had many thoughtful details, including their gifts for each other. Surrounded by some of the most thoughtful friends and family we have yet met, the two were married in a gorgeous church ceremony. The night followed with a beautiful reception that held subtle Beauty and the Beast themes. Elizabeth was easily the bell(e) of the ball that night, and she has truly found a prince in Christian. Given that the wedding had so many unique touches, I wanted to list my favorite things about this wedding before showing off images!
.
A yellow theme! This rare star color really shined as a wedding front-runner.
The bridal party slippers! These were such a cute touch to elevate the typical robe gift. Elizabeth was really amazing about taking everything up a notch and I adored her for it.
Ribbon wands for the exit! The bride actually made all of these herself, topped with little bells for her many guests.
The all-white trolley! I actually ended up renting this for our wedding as a result of shooting it that day!
The VIDEO booth! I had never worked a wedding before with one of these (in substitution of a photo booth) and it was really cool.
What did I love the absolute MOST about this wedding? The couple! Elizabeth and Christian, thank you for making me part of your day. It was a lovely experience and I wish you both every ounce of that happily ever after you’ve started toward.

I loved that trolley so much! We ended up using it at our wedding, and I’ve had it booked for two other AKP weddings. It’s so classic!

It is so sweet with the hints of Disney. You can see the couples personality shine through their special day. Nice job capturing it Ashton!
