What an amazing event, while I have shot at Kylan Barn a handful of times now, this was my first full day wedding at Kylan Barn and it was perfection from start to finish.  The weather looked bleak with local areas flooding around us and angry skies above but Ashley & Andrea pulled off a seamless event with the help of local vendors being flexible and ready to work.  The ceremony was moved under the awning of the barn and Coastal Tents did an incredible job of creating a masterpiece of chairs cascading around the couple saying their nuptials with friend Parker officiating.  The couples rings were protected with a beautiful ornate ring box carved with their wedding date and lastname.

Portraits went off without a hitch using the barns awning to the other side to keep family members dry and free of walking in wet grass.  Following the family portraits the bridal party walked the property to take some fun photos before kicking off the party with DJ John inside.  When the couple first danced to a slow version of Foo Fighter's Everlong I swooned behind my camera.  While there wasn't much of a sunset, we were able to get some really cool night time rain pictures with the only real steady rain we had of the day which was about a ten minute shower.  Following dinner and cake we went outside to do the Kylan Barn tradition of signing a lock to place on the iron wrought fence.  The evening concluded with lots of dancing, drinks, laughs, shots and a nice late slow dance under the twinkling lights.  Congratulations Trish and Bret, I was so honored to be a big party of your special day and wish you a lifetime of happiness together!

What an amazing wedding on the Eastern Shore held at Chickberry Farms in Laurel, DE.  The couple said their nuptials with friends and family on the main stage of the venue followed by an amazing party inside the cool air conditioned barn while we started with some fun portraits outside.  DJ Vance Owens had the place lit to perfection and kept the dancing going strong from first dance through the evening.  The Shoe Game was a fun addition to the evening giving guests an insight into life at home for the couple and we snuck out for some of the most epic of sunset portraits after that.  Congratulations David & Chrissy, we wish you a lifetime of happiness!
