Korinna and Dustin kicked off our fall 2019 wedding season. We had 22 wedding left in 5 months and couldn’t wait to get rolling with amazing fall weddings.

Our morning with these guys was awesome. We took the limo to the naval academy where family watched and cheered on. Once they had seen each other, Patrick and i cruised all over the campus with our almost married couple and their wedding party. The beauty of first looks is the majority of photos are done on the front end. We did have to spend some more time after ceremony too because there was a huge orientation at the rotunda and Korinna really wanted photos there. We made sure to get them, it would just be a couple hours later. Korinna and Dustin had a gorgeous naval academy wedding. The chapel is just amazing and it’s run so well by their coordinators. After they were married, a sword arch in the stairs commenced right as the skies opened up! Honestly, it looked so cool and only lasted a couple minutes. Thankfully we got back to the rotunda for a newlywed photo segment. 

Alyssa and Prashant did so well at their Fell’s Point engagement session a few weeks ago! They really took our engagement session style guide to heart, and came dressed to the nines! Prashant, our fashion king, even had custom cufflinks and a custom embroidered shirt! 

What an awesome session this was! We’d like to say that it’s pretty obvious that Jessica and Jon feel 100% comfortable with each other and they are the ones to put each other at ease, not us. As Fells Point locals, they really wanted their session to capture their love story and so choosing Fells Point for their e-session was a no brainer.

When I think of a vibrant colorful engagement session, I’ll totally think about these two!

Maria and Shantanu are having an Indian/American fusion wedding next October 2020 and we couldn’t be more excited to be a part of this season of life with them.

Our time with them was super sweet… as a Locust Point couple living close to Under Armour, we felt it fitting to do their engagement session near “home” for these two. Patrick and I were excited about it because we realized in all our sessions, we’ve never done a shoot in Locust Point with one of our couples!

We discovered this really incredible venue up near Delaware called Rosewood Farms. If you haven’t heard of it or need to see what it looks like, totally google it, you’ll LOVE it. We decided to do their bridal show earlier this year and met some really amazing couples as a result!

Candice and Nick were one of them. Nick wasn’t there but Candice and Patrick connected as they talked about their wedding and the plans they had. When Candice and Nick reached out about meeting us and then shortly after meeting, they hired us, we were SOOO excited. 

Laura and Kurt are some of the most patient people ever, and I’m so grateful! All day we were praying for sunny skies and we almost made it… until it was time for their first look! Laura braved the winds to go outside and have a sweet, quiet moment with Kurt before the skies opened up on us! Luckily, the storm passed, and we were even able to get a few pictures in the rain. It ended up being the best of both worlds! 

Happy Friday!

Chrissy and Ryan’s session was better than I could imagine. They were pros. Their genuine affection, joy, and enthusiasm radiated during the whole time we were together. I proposed a few fun photo segments and they totally took me up on it. Wait until you see the Scooter and Ice Cream segment of our time together. 

Beach engagement sessions are some of our favorite. The salty air, the breeze that hits the dress and makes it do what only wind can do. Foot prints in the sand and wet feet. We love it all. Lindsay and Matt were champions. Our 2.5 hour engagement quickly became 4 (by accident) we were having so much fun and cruising all around a private golf course (by foot unfortunately, I love golf carts). These two never tired out… except at the end when we all realized we were starving and then went and ate the biggest chimichangas, enchiladas, and burritos.
