Winter Wedding Inspiration Historic Ashland Wrightsville, PA Erin + Andrew

Have you dreamed of a winter wedding your whole life? Does the idea of snow on the ground, a long sleeve wedding gown, fur wrap, and warm cozy barn venue make you say "YES, that's me!"?! Then I have the perfect winter Pennsylvania wedding day to share with you. Erin and Andrew became husband and wife on a beautiful January day at The Historic Ashland in Wrightsville, PA.

The Historic Ashland is a beautiful upscale remodeled barn venue in the heart of York, PA. The owner Leah is a dream to work with and she shows such great care to each and every one of her couples. This venue is classy and timeless and beautiful all year round. It boasts a large barn perfect for indoor ceremonies and receptions, especially when it's cold outside. I've captured weddings here during each season of the year and each one is special in it's own way.





Erin and Andrew's day was chilly and we had some fresh snow on the ground which made for some lovely winter portraits. They opted for a first look and the emotions were high when Andrew saw Erin for the very first time.










Guests made their way into the barn for the indoor ceremony and then the room was set up for the reception while the guests enjoyed cocktail hour and we captured some sweet family portraits.

The vendor team was a dream to work with and included Videography by Harbour Lights Creative, Catering by Rettews Catering, the very best officiant The Brofficiant, and Entertainment by DJ Anton from Then We Danced.

Guests danced the night away and ended the evening with a fun little popcorn take home favor. You can't go wrong sending your guests home with a snack as a favor... trust me!

Here are some of my favorites images from their beautiful day:




























































































































































Winter Maternity Session : Lock Ridge Park and Furnace Alburtis, PA : Alexis

Alexis and her sweet family braved a cold winter day at Lock Ridge Park and Furnace Museum in Alburtis, PA to capture some sweet maternity photos together. Alexis chose two outfits with blue as her main color and I bet you can guess why... she was expecting a little boy!

She found her long blue velvet gown on Amazon and it was a perfect dress to showcase her growing baby bump. If you are looking for a similar dress it comes in so many color options and you can find it here: Velvet Maternity Off Shoulder Fitted Photography Gown Long Sleeve Maxi Photo Shoot Baby Shower Dress


As you can tell... there was a lot of snuggling from big brother. On a cold winter day can you really ask for more?

Here are a few of my favorites from Alexis's maternity photo shoot session.
