Happy New Year!

Wow!  What a year!!!  I photographed 27 weddings this year along with a ton of other portraits and events.  A new record for me and maybe a new record for Charles Studio.  (I’ll have to ask my dad.  Wedding photography has changed so much.  I’m positive that I trump him in the number of hours spent photographing weddings!)  2012, my second full year owning the business, was really amazing!  Charles Studio was named  #1 Photographer in Frederick by the Gazette, Best of the Knot by theknot.com, and Brides Choice by weddingwire.com.  I’m practically speechless!  All I can say is THANK YOU to all of the friends and family who support our local business.  Cheers to another great year!

Run Away Bride?

I immediately clicked with Peggy and Sam.  In addition to being incredibly kind and personable, they are both runners!  They actually met in a running club.  They had a fantastic wedding with friends and family that incorporated their shared passion.  I loved the little marathoner gingerbread cookie!
