I was connected with Stacey and Jack through a friend and previous bride, Lynn.  Lynn and her husband, Christian, got married in the garden backyard of their beautiful, historic home in Harpers Ferry a few years ago.  They've now turned their home into Rockhaven Bed & Breakfast, opening their doors to visitors, as well as couples looking for an intimate wedding venue.  Stacey and Jack found Lynn and Christian's place, and then they trusted Lynn's recommendation to consider me as their photographer - and I'm so glad they did!

When I asked Stacey and Jack how they met, they said "in prison"!  They met at work (they both work in a prison), haha.  What a fun conversation starter! :-)  The couple traveled about an hour or so from home to enjoy a stay in Harpers Ferry and have a lovely, mid-week elopement ceremony in the Rockhaven garden.  After they exchanged vows and sealed them with a kiss, we ventured to a nearby trail to take some more photos near a waterfall and along the Shenandoah River (I think we were still along the Shenandoah... but it's possible it was the Potomac at this spot).

To celebrate, Stacey and Jack planned to go kayaking later in the day.  Sounds like a pretty fun way to start a marriage to me!

Congratulations, Stacey & Jack! :-)
