Eastern Shore Wedding: Danielle + Josh, Part 1

After sharing Danielle and Josh’s cute engagement session at Federal Hill Baltimore, I’m excited to also share these images from their beautiful wedding at a waterfront private estate in Preston, Maryland. Preston is in Maryland’s Eastern Shore area, not too far from Easton.

It’s usually Mother of the Bride’s job to help putting on the veil on her daughter’s hair.

I’m always excited when the Bride and Groom decided to do the first glance before the ceremony. It’s the one chance for them to see each other for the first time in a private moment without all the guests watching.

Check out this touching sequence from Danie and Josh’s first glance.

You may remember Danie and Josh’s dog, Hula, who watched them cooked during the engagement session at their home. Hula seemed to be happy to be a part of the wedding.

Hula was too tired to sit through the whole ceremony, or maybe just bored because nothing fun is going on. 🙂

I just love capturing emotional moments like these that only last for a split second. Danie’s Dad seemed to be very proud of his then baby girl, leaped into a new chapter in her life.
