What a fantastic wedding and reception celebration Amanda and William held recently!

Their nuptial mass took place at noon in the Naval Academy Chapel with many out of town family members and friends in attendance. Then, with four hours until the start of their reception at the Annapolis Maritime Museum, the couple asked that the time be used for many photo opportunities around the Naval Academy campus, on the docks in Downtown Annapolis, and at the water at the Annapolis Maritime Museum.

I had so much fun all day and evening with this couple and their wedding party! And their reception was one amazing party for the record books!!

William proposed to Amanda just before their two year anniversary at the Rosedown Plantation in Louisiana, which is his home state, last December.

Congratulations, Amanda and William! It was truly an honor and joy to photograph your day!
