Weekend Catch Up

What a weekend … or should I say, month! August is over and now into September which is the transitioning month to FALL! I think all of us can agree that we are ready for fall?! I know I am since it is one of my absolute FAVORITE seasons!!! Soooo ready for the nice and cool weather. ๐Ÿ™‚ย Fortunately in September, I have built in catch up days so then I can back to where I was before I moved … all caught up and organized. Just in time before the October weddings as I have six lined up just like June. Fortunately, November is pretty clear except for one wedding, portrait sessions and … yes, a family vacation to Florida! ๐Ÿ™‚

Here is what went on this weekened! ๐Ÿ™‚

Megan | Headshots

McCarthy | Family
Saturday, I had a sunrise session in Maryland for this lovely family! But with being in Maryland, I had to wake up at 4 a.m. which is an hour I hope to not see again. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Lol! But it was worth it!

Josh & Kaitlyn | Engagement

Dave & Ashton | Wedding
I’m still on a happy high from this wedding yesterday … and I must say I now know where I want to get married!!! Lol! More to come this week of this wedding and you will just see why! ๐Ÿ™‚

Hope everyone had a wonderful and safe weekend! Here’s to a new week and month! HAPPY LABOR DAY!
