Etsy Love {MD, PA, VA, WV, Washington DC and Beyond Wedding Photographer}

A couple years ago, I discovered the beautiful world of Etsy. I was so impressed with all the handmade wonders and was so excited to find a new place to shop for unique, exciting things. I forgot about the coolness of Etsy for a little while, but just recently got excited about it again when I purchased some hairpieces for Ally from Little Munchkin Pie. I cannot wait to wear them on her this spring - one is a special piece for Easter that I'll share sometime soon. :)

Etsy is also a cool place to find wedding details. Chatting with past and present brides, I've found that many of them did a bunch of Etsy shopping for their wedding. They've gotten their hairpieces, shoes, jewelry, purses, decorations...all kinds of neat things from artists on Etsy! Sometimes the personal, unique, handmade details of the wedding are some of the most fun things to photograph, remember and share, so here's my shoutout to Etsy and all the brides out there in the wedding world: shop at Etsy and add some handmade wonders to your special day! You and your photographer will both be very happy.

Here are some recent Etsy finds and faves:
