Marriage Equality comes to Pennsylvania! ⋆ Lindsay Docherty Photography

Marriage Equality comes to Pennsylvania!

Personal

This isn’t politics; this is love.

Anyone who knows me or my business knows that LGBT rights has been a top issue for me for years. I am a proud supporter of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) and simply believe that two consenting adults should be given the equal protections and rights under the law whether they’re gay, lesbian, straight, transgender, black, white, or purple. Love is love.

I was living and mourning in San Francisco in 2008 when Prop 8 was passed and cheered its rightful unconstitutionality in 2010.  I celebrated the end of DOMA last year.

Today I cheer again. This time for my home state of Pennsylvania that ruled in favor of marriage equality and has struck down the same-sex ban! I will refrain from commenting that this should have happened a long time ago and just say:

You are on the right side of history and you have made me one very, very proud Pennsylvanian today!

Same sex couples who book with me for their 2014 or 2015 weddings within the next month (or already have booked for this year and next), will be showered with much love and an extra little gift from me to you. Give me a call at 215-703-7717 or email me at Lindsay@lindsaydocherty.com to go over your wedding plans!

Much love,
Lindsay

Mother’s Day in MD
I spent last weekend with my mom for mother's day and thought I'd share some pictures from my time there. She lives in historic little Berlin, Maryland which is right outside of Ocean City, MD.My mom has quite a green thumb and spends all of her free time in her glorious garden. She can tell you all about everything in there too. And it's this ever changing thing - she is constantly replanting this and that. She tells me it's already changed since I took these pics. Take a look…We went into OC for a day to check out Springfest and the boardwalk. I was a complete glutton, eating my way through boardwalk fries with vinegar, ice cream, and ...

Free Photoshoot + DVD
Here's a deal for you…My grandmother in Scotland is very sick and probably won't be around much longer. I'll be flying out to see her this Sunday. When I get back I'll need to turn right around and fly to Connecticut to shoot a wedding on Halloween. This means I'll need to be away from my sweet pooch for about 2 weeks. I just hate to board her so I want to offer this awesome one-time deal: a Lindsay Docherty Photography Photoshoot plus a DVD of the images in exchange for looking after Emma for me while I'm away. This is an $875 value ($325 session fee + $550 DVD). Details on Emma: She's a 5 year old Jack Russell / Beagle mix. 16 lbs. S ...

October Desktop Images
How is it October already?! I can’t believe how quickly the year has flown by. This month is officially the busiest month I’ve ever had. There are so many incredible weddings that you’ll see splashed across the blog soon. And if you know someone getting married in 2012, tell them to get going because I’m already halfway to my wedding limit for next year. Crazy, right?!In honor of this fabulous month devoted to baseball, fall colors, and All Hallows’ Eve, I’m giving you some digital candy (if you come by my place I’m happy to give you real candy too, but I’ll expect a trick). Candy corn gets a bad rap. Granted, it tastes just like a bun ...
