Allison & Justin’s wedding at The Mansion at Valley Country Club was beautiful and full of fun, laughter and a few tears! These two had me smiling, laughing and crying along with them. I just knew from the moment I met Allison and Justin that their wedding was going to be amazing! Especially after our engagement session last year, I knew I was in for a lot of fun and beautiful moments while capturing their wedding day. 

Allison and Justin are an amazing couple. These two just knew after their first date that there was something special between them. The love that they have for each other is absolutely remarkable. They have really been there for each other through the good and the difficult times.

At the reception, Allison surprised Justin in a few ways that were a real show of her love for him – and his love for Ohio State Football. Hidden in her garter were two tickets to the Ohio State vs. Michigan football game. Justin couldn’t believe it! And then when he pulled the garter down to see that it had the Ohio State logo, his reaction was priceless!

Congratulations, newlyweds!! I had so much fun with you two, your bridal party, family and friends on your wedding day. From your pre-ceremony prep at the Sheraton Baltimore North Hotel to the dance floor at the Mansion, you both were such a joy to photograph! It has been such an honor to capture your love. I wish you both the absolute best!
