I'm often asked if I do "small" weddings or not. I don't really know the proper answer because in my mind every wedding, not matter how intimate or elaborate, is equally important.

This wedding, while it might be labeled "small", is one that holds such a special place in my heart because it was one of those weddings that was elaborately intimate - full of unique moments that just kept coming.

Lauren and Paul found the Eastern Shore because of a "little" craft brewery down here called Dogfish Head. They brought 50 of their closest friends and family from New York City, worked out every detail themselves (sans the catering by the amazing Leo at Modern Mixture) and had a day in Lewes that unfolded so peacefully, even despite the rain. This family on both sides is amazingly talented from photography to writing to art to music and they incoporated it all in just the right way.

The day was a masterpiece and I was so honored to be able to capture it.

And yes, yes I do do small weddings (I was with them from 9am to midnight).
