I have been dying to blog my first wedding of 2010, but am having the hardest time narrowing down images from that amazing day! A full post will go up on Friday, but here is a little sneak peek for now! :) Enjoy!
Welcome to my blog! My name is Natalie Franke and I'm a wedding photojournalist and portrait photographer in the Philadelphia, Baltimore, & DC metro areas!
I specialize in capturing candid moments as they unfold and finding real emotion in each image that I produce.
I love my job & feel so blessed for all of the incredible friendships that I have gained through photography. I'm happy that you've come across my little piece of the universe! Take off your coat & stay a while!

Carie & Zachary's Wedding
It was the one of those summer days that was simply made for a wedding. The blue skies over Walkersville were speckled with clouds and a soft breeze rustled through the fields. It was clear that God had his hand in bringing these two incredible people together. The unconditional love and genuine care that they shared for one another was astounding. Here are a few pictures from the day:
Right before the ceremony - all of the groomsmen & the pastor placed their hands on Zach and began to pray.
Carie & her bridesmaids snuck off to a small barn right before the ceremony to have their own moment of peace.
Surrounded by friends and family, beneath the canopy of trees, they said "I do".
Every table was decorated with gorgeous flowers.
My favorite part about the entire day, was when Carie threw on her apron & Zach rolled up his sleeves to serve all of the guests dinner. They fed everyone else before themselves & were so happy to share this time with all of their loved ones. The food was amazing too! :)
Midway through their first dance, the music stopped. Zach grabbed a microphone and sang the rest of the song to Carie. It was planned & way too cute!
And not long after, they were busting their moves on the dance floor.
The night came to a close as the two love birds shared a sparkler send off! :)
Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Zachary Ritz! :) I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to photograph your wedding. It was absolutely beautiful and I hope you have an amazing time on your honeymoon!
All the best,
Natalie Franke

Emily & Frank's Wedding
By Emily & Frank's big day, I had already photographed my first traditional Chinese wedding & was excited to work once again with the incredible Laura Kay. The entire day was wonderful & I wish the happy couple the best of luck as they begin this new journey together!
I love that Jellyfish was part of the ten course meal!
The programs were very intricately done, absolutely beautiful.
Thank you again to Laura Kay Photography for having me as a second shooter! You can see more of Laura's post here.
All the best,
Natalie Franke
