I am David S. Spence, Chief Photographer and Founder of Spence Photographics, a Frederick, Maryland-based Wedding And Lifestyle Photojournalism studio. I use my many years of newspaper and magazine photojournalism experience to capture couples and subjects as they are, in their own environments. I strive to be "hands-off" in my approach to shooting. My direction to my subjects and couples is minimal so I can capture their true personalities in the images. I look to find natural, organic light to capture the moments as they are. With each wedding and lifestyle shoot comes new and exciting challenges, but also fun and unique personalities that drive my images. I love to see the interaction between two families coming together to form a new family and lasting friendships.
Cheers!
David

McClintock Distilling | Frederick, Maryland | Wedding | Emily & Karan

Sunday, September 29, 2019

Emily, a high school English teacher, and Karan, a data analyst, met on OK Cupid. Their first date lasted for hours because they just couldn’t stop talking to each other. Currently they are dog parents to a beagle mix named Serenity and a mystery mix named Walter, two quirky rescue pups they love dearly. For the foreseeable future, they’ll be renovating an older home they bought together in Downtown Frederick, and falling in love with their chosen new hometown. Their engagement session was a celebration of Frederick and of their love.

Karan and Emily chose McClintock Distilling, located just off Frederick’s beautiful Carroll Creek Park, for their ceremony and reception location because they love the industrial vibe and exposed brick. They got ready on their big day at their new home, just a few blocks away.
