Jess + Chris
These guys take the cake for the hottest wedding of the year by far, in multiple ways. Mad and I met Jess and Chris last year for their engagement photos in Washington DC, and from that point on we knew we were in for a good time. They invited us down to shoot their wedding just outside of St. Michaels, MD at a venue called The Oaks. What a picturesque place to tie the knot and celebrate with family and friends. It may have been 99 degrees with a heat index of 109 (who's counting?), but that didn't stop these two from... Jess breaking her foot while busting a move with grandpa (see image at the bottom), going on a photo expedition straight after that at sunset, chris getting pooped on by a bird during the formal photos (after an unnamed wedding participant stepped on a baby bird minutes before), and just being troopers in general sweating it out in barns and all over the place in the hot sun. Enough of the talking, start the looking... one of my favorite weddings yet!
