Beach Wedding Photography in Dewey Beach, Delaware: Brittany + Justin

Wedding

No, no, not that Brittany and Justin. This Brittany and Justin are a gorgeous couple, completely fun loving and hilarious, had a beautiful wedding in Dewey Beach, Delaware and yours truly had the honor of photographing it! You should remember them from their engagement session a few months ago.

I started with the ladies around the corner from the venue. Brittany wore a stunning Maggie Sottero slim line gown with some of the most incredible back detailing I’ve seen. A dancer, it fit her form like a glove.

The bridesmaids wore beachy turquoise dresses with great accessories.

The bridal party carried flowers in a fiery orange, Brittany with calla lilies and orchids wrapped in raffia.

Meanwhile, the guys made their way over to the venue, Venus on the Half Shell. It’s a fantastic space with a waterfront view and a unique Moroccan and vibrant vibe inside. I can absolutely understand why this had to be the place for them!

Their wedding was held on the beach under a tent as clouds loomed outside.

I love this look that he gives her that says nothing less than complete adoration.

Justin got into a very serious accident mere weeks before the wedding. Incredibly, he pulled through and looked quite charming as a groom up there. You’d never know if it weren’t for his bandaged hand. And yes, Brittany was still able to get the ring on.

I love this shot that my second shooter, Sean, was able to get from the other side of the kiss!

I really dig that we had some great overcast skies as a background for our pictures. The soft light and moody conditions were clutch. We didn’t have a single drop fall on us.

The toasts were funny and heartfelt. It was actually the first time I’ve ever seen a toast read off of an iPhone.

And you know me, if I have a chance to get food shots, I will!

Delaware Wedding Photographer | Hockessin Memorial Hall | Katie + Justin
Katie and Justin are adorable beyond words. She’s a Delaware girl who's happiest when she’s barefoot and he's a Tennessee boy who tries hard not to crack a smile (and completely fails at this). You should remember them from their engagement session in New Castle, Delaware last fall. Their summer wedding was simply joyful. I met up with Katie’s family and the ladies at Katie’s family’s house in Middletown. There were happy little flower girls flitting all around the house. One of my absolute favorite details about the day was the fact that Katie lost her wedding shoes that morning. They were just nowhere to be found. The solution: we ...
