Todd & Alicia’s Annapolis Civil Court Wedding
Todd & Alicia’s wedding day in Annapolis was a beautiful reminder that love doesn’t need a big production to feel extraordinary. In September 2025, they chose an intimate civil court ceremony in the heart of downtown Annapolis, focusing on what mattered most—each other. With the charm of historic brick streets, cozy cafés, and iconic local spots as their backdrop, their day felt effortlessly romantic and full of joy.
After their courthouse ceremony, we explored the streets together for a relaxed portrait session that captured their playful connection and genuine laughter. From strolling hand-in-hand through downtown to sharing quiet moments in hidden alleyways and in front of Annapolis landmarks, every image tells the story of a couple who truly enjoys life together. Todd & Alicia’s wedding proves that whether your celebration is large or small, what makes it unforgettable is the love you share and the moments you choose to hold onto forever.

Wedding at Sacred Heart Cultural Center | Wedding Photography
Daniel & Celine's Wedding
Daniel and Celine were married on February 9th at the historic Sacred Heart Cultural Center. The church was built in 1897 and held its first mass in 1900! Unfortunately, due to a number of factors the last mass was held in Sacred Heart on July 3, 1971. The building was reopened in 1987. The structure now serves as a unique venue for social and cultural events such as art exhibitions, theatrical events, an annual Garden Festival, choral concerts and is rented continuously throughout the year for celebrations, and civic functions.
This was my first time photographing any event at the Cultural Center. It was absolutely beautiful and a great location to have a ceremony and reception for your wedding. Daniel and Celine are currently living in Taiwan and this would be their second wedding for Daniel’s family and friends. They were both so easy going throughout the day, it really helped bring out more of my artistic side. Usually a wedding has multiple locations with time restraints, this brings common pressures as a wedding photographer which I have come to expect and work well under. However, there was little to no pressure during the Eyrich Wedding and I couldn’t have been more appreciative of it.
One take away during the wedding was when I began getting family ready for portrait shots, I was told there were 11 siblings in Daniel’s family! Posing them all in one big shot was a challenge but I think I knocked it out of the park. Also, his family can really dance! They were doing many coordinated dances as you will see in the photos below. I really enjoyed being a spectator to this.
I want to wish Daniel and Celine many years of love and companionship. No matter where they are their love will shine bright to those who know them and are touched by them.
Here are some photos of their day:
Andre & Lashonda's Wedding StoryAndre & Lashonda’s Wedding Story | Maryland Wedding Photography
When I first met Lashonda back in Mid-April she informed me that her wedding would be just weeks after our initial meeting. She would be taking on the daunting task of planning her big day in just a short period of time. Originally, she was to have her wedding in North Augusta, SC in a rented mansion with an amazing hilltop view of the local town. Unfortunately, the weeks leading up to her big day it rained a great deal. Because her wedding would be outdoor/indoor utilizing all the facets of the mansion; Lashonda decided to change the venue a week before her wedding due to the poor condition of the grounds. What Lashonda was able to pull off next is a testament to her character......a "can-do" character that will undoubtedly serve her and her husband Andre for a lifetime. Lashonda was able to change her wedding ceremony and reception location to the historic Augusta Museum Downtown.
Lashonda and Andre's wedding day was full of friends and family who cared deeply about them. For a wedding that was planned in such a short period of time I can say without a doubt it was a great success and showcase of the love these two souls have for each other. I will end this with a scripture that was on a medallion tied to Lashonda's bouquet. Psalms 93:4 "More than the sounds of many waters, Than the mighty breakers of the sea, The LORD on high is mighty."
Here are just a few photos of Andre & Lashonda's wedding day
James & Katrina's Engagement Session | Maryland Engagement Photographer
A few weeks ago I had the honor of capturing the engagement session for James & Katrina featuring their daughter Serenity. They both decided on having the session at Pendleton King Park. I had shot an engagement session there before, but I had never notice the lovely garden there that is just perfect for taking photos! I really love working with couples prior to their big wedding day. It gives me an opportunity to not only get to know them better but work with them and gain their trust and confidence.
As we began conversing and walking to our first shot location I asked Katrina where her engagement ring was? The next few moments were of utter shock as Katrina had realized she had forgotten to put on her engagement ring and had accidentally left it home. I really care about giving the best images and care to my clients. So I told her I would wait for her to go back home and get her engagement ring. In the meantime, I would warm up my photo taking skills on her youngest sister (who was there to chaperon) and daughter. When Katrina came back we were ready to go. The rest of the engagement shoot was fun and relaxing. James & Katrina were really fun to be around and had no objections trying out any photo ideas I might have had whether they worked out or not.
I can’t wait for September when I capture their wedding at The Red Oak Manor in Harlem, GA. In the meantime, check out a few images from their engagement session!
