Love is the real punk rock...


This intimate, alternative fall wedding was one for the books! Vanessa and Timmy’s big day was filled with so much fun, creativity, and uniqueness—it was truly unforgettable.


Vanessa and Timmy are anything but ordinary. With their cool style and creative souls, they made the perfect team for an epic wedding celebration. I work with Vanessa at Free People and have absolutely loved getting to know her—she's hardworking, deeply caring, and full of life. Timmy mirrors all of that and more!


The day kicked off with getting ready and capturing some amazing wedding day details. Then came a sweet first look between Vanessa and her dad—cue the tears, because I was already bawling! Vanessa and Timmy chose not to do a first look, so when Timmy saw her walking down the aisle for the first time... oh my goodness. The emotion in the room was unreal—happy tears everywhere.


After the ceremony, we headed to the boardwalk for family portraits and bridal party shots. We played around with some fun trends and captured the energy of such a joyful, laid-back group. Then it was time to party! Meema and Peepa danced like they were the only two people in the room, friends grouped together and sang their hearts out to the camera, and Vanessa and Timmy made sure to connect with every single loved one there.


I'm beyond excited to continue getting to know this amazing couple and their families. And I’m especially looking forward to seeing everyone again soon—because I have the absolute pleasure of photographing Vanessa’s sister Amanda and her fiancé Collin’s wedding in just a few months. Round two, here we come! 😉
