Maryland Wedding Photographer | Love in a Pandemic
January 4, 2021 By  Teresa With  0 Comment
In  Weddings

Their wedding, like many 2020 weddings, was complicated by Covid. Her real wedding dress didn’t arrive on time. They did not get photos. Plans had to be changed, and like many of the 2020 weddings this year they had to be flexible. As a Maryland wedding photographer, I saw this happen over and over last year. Two of the ceremonies I photographed in 2020 ended up being reduced dramatically, and this session was due to a complicated day without a photographer.

Even though they didn’t get photos on their wedding day, Virginia wrote me to see if I could still do photos of them dressed up in their wedding attire with their two boys. We played around the Church grounds, pretending it was wedding day. It was a mix of a family session and wedding portrait session, which was a lot of fun!

I did a lot of bridal portraits, but I also tried to capture some photos Virginia with each of her boys and did solos of them, as well. I staged them like they were bridal party/ring bearers in a few shots, and of course, I had to promise the youngest I’d end the session with a few photos of him doing his martial arts!

Christ Church in West River, Maryland in Anne Arundel County made for a gorgeous backdrop for their photos. As a Maryland wedding photographer, I just loved the archways and points. It made for some fun images with the interesting architecture.

If your wedding day was changed because of covid, and you didn’t get the images you always dreamed of, email me about scheduling a session! I would LOVE to help you out like I helped Virginia! To see more about how I run traditional weddings with a focus on documentary and storytelling, visit my wedding page, or e-mail me at teresa@tcjdesign.com or through my contact page to get the ball rolling and talk about your big day!

    February is Black History Month, and we have come together as artists to better understand, honor, and share those within the Black community who have given great gifts to us all for a better and more equitable future. We often hear the same stories, but there are many more to celebrate! 

So today I am sharing about Alma Woodsey Thomas, a teacher and painter who lived from 1891-1978, featured in the book Little Leaders: Bold Woman in Black History by Vashti Harrison. My daughter loves art, so she immediately was pulled in by the photo of her with her style of art in the book. Alma was born in Columbus, Georgia and was good at architecture but loved art. She pursued a career in teaching kindergarten and taught for several years before going to #hbcu Howard University in Washington, D.C. She was the FIRST student in Howard’s art department and was encouraged there to paint full time.For most of her life, she continued teaching, painting, and learning; she even received a ester’s degree in education at Columbia University in NYC. Her art was colorful and her signature style was creating tiny bright rectangles and repeating shapes, so my daughter wanted to create something in her style to honor her. 

I hope you will follow along with #blackhistorymonth2021_clickpros to learn more!

    My youngest turned five last week. I’m in complete disbelief that he starts kindergarten next year. 💚

    I told you I wouldn't be able to not share more of this session with Baby Luke I LOVE baby details... they get big, and eventually those feet aren't as cute, and if they are like my kids, they're stinky. But baby feet.... they're perfect and sweet and oh so tiny! It's important to remember when our kids were so small their feet fit in our hands! So if you book a newborn session with me, expect some of these details!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

    Baby Luke's session will be overshared this week. Be warned. He's cute. He came a tad early and a spent some time in the NICU, but you wouldn't know the start of his life was remotely hard. He's 18 days old and a total dream...,⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
