Good morning from the North Pole Gettysburg, PA where we’re still in the single digits but the coffee’s hot and cute couples are plentiful (on my screen, anyway). Inexplicably, I have made it 13 years as a Frederick wedding photographer without ever shooting at Lake Linganore. I’m thankful for Terri and Patrick who suggested we start our session at Coldstream Beach before moving to Baker Park and we really got the best of both worlds. The lake was frosty but the air was warm, and Baker Park felt more like Central Park with all the snow and quiet waters. I had the best time with these two and these are some of my new favorites! I can’t wait for their summer wedding at Springfield Manor in just a few months. (Summer! It really is just a few months away! May we all defrost!)

2026 inquiries are coming in! *Click for the vibe* If you’re planning a 2026 wedding and you’re in need of a photographer/cookie lady/friend to celebrate with ya, I’d love to hear from you. My inbox is always open.

And if you’re on the fence about winter’s ability to show off in cold-weather portraits, see this incredible engagement and this cozy winter wedding.
