Wedding Photography - Dulany's overlook - frederick, maryland


Nestled in the picturesque landscape of Frederick, Maryland, Dulany’s Overlook stands as a testament to rustic charm and natural beauty. For couples seeking a wedding venue that combines a scenic view with rustic elegance that happens to be easily accessible, this not-so-hidden gem offers an idyllic setting for one of the biggest days of their lives.


J+R got married on a sunny day in May. We had a great engagement session at Sugarloaf Mountain, so I was pumped for their wedding. Underneath the open sky, the couple exchanged their vows in an emotional private setting beneath a large tree in the gardens behind the main house. The natural beauty of the surroundings complemented the heartfelt promises they made to each other. With a large wedding party by their side, J+R had their closest friends and family stand as witnesses to their union. Bridesmaids dressed in dusty rose gowns and groomsmen in classic grey suits added to the joyous springlike atmosphere. The wedding party and guest were even treated to a flyby in the form of a hot air balloon!


As the day went on, the rustic barn transformed into a dance floor. The newlyweds shared the floor, jumping and dancing the night away to some of their favorite songs, including ones from Blink 182. Mother nature gave the couple a brilliant sunset, and we took advantage of this short moment to take more portraits.


As we left for the evening, laughter and joy continued to fill the air as guests joined in the celebration, dancing the night away in a true spirit of togetherness. Witnessing part of their love story and capturing the genuine emotions has been a truly rewarding experience. The entire vendor team did an amazing job and they event went smooth as silk. J+R’s wedding day at Dulany’s Overlook was filled with love, joy, and countless memorable moments, and I feel grateful to have been there to document it all.
