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. 

I’m gonna recap this wedding for you. Beautiful details, beautiful bridesmaids, a killer vendor team including My Flower Box, Crow Entertainment, Betsy Robinson Bridal, Flavor Cupcakery, Radiant Films, and so much more goodness. The day was smooth and wedding day full. Although we highly recommend first looks, these guys had the perfect timeline in place for a day without a first look. Watching Josh see Lindsay for the first time was so sweet. The backdrop for their wedding day was beautiful, they couldn’t have asked for better weather. It even rained and then stopped before ceremony which was amazing!! We didn’t even have to use umbrellas at all that day! 

This destination wedding was amazing. Brittany and Darryl had such a packed full day. Some of my favorite highlights to this day included a double date first look, a cat that followed us EVERYWHERE (like I had to pick it up and move it across a field in hopes it left us alone), a ceremony that was sweet with vows spoken on the spot, and a band that had people dancing all night long. Oh and don’t forget the reception details… I loved them all, from lanterns, to a beautiful 4 tiered cake and mini macaroon cakes too on a beautiful antique server. Love love love!

I remember going to the Antrim 1844 as a young girl with my parents. I thought it was gorgeous, something out of a magazine, something historic and so neat. I remember thinking their gardens would be so pretty to take pictures of. But never did I think we’d shoot a wedding here. The Antrim 1844 has been on my bucket list since 2014 when we went full time. This is our first wedding there.

Our time with these guys was so fun and adventurous. We drove almost an hour and a half to Abby’s parents private farm on 17 acres. It was absolutely beautiful and there was so much variety. We literally were driving off road across their property to find property gems that would be perfectly suited to show off our couple.

For those of you who know Patrick and I, we limit our fights to 1 a wedding. We are both stubborn, both passionate and opinionated… me more than him. It’s because we care so much about our couples and their day and we both want to ensure we get soooo much goodness from the day! This day was epic. Amazing couple and amazing bridal party, amazing overall Baltimore goodness.

We’ve been friends with these guys for over a year and a half as they hired us pretty soon after getting engaged. Which is so crazy when wedding day actually came about beause we felt like we just were part of the event and their crew which made our job so smooth with Jenn and James and their whole family and day.

We got this really cool inquiry from a company called Pawfect For You wanting to do a media swap about our companies! When we got to know them a little more, and looked at what they do, we said absolutely! Let’s make it happen!

We’ve known Aubrie and her family for over 10 years which I think is nuts! When we get to photograph friends weddings, they end up being so amazing and more special than I realized. When we shot their destination beach engagement session, we couldn’t wait for their wedding to come! I definitely cried twice or more at this wedding.

Aubrie is the only daughter of our friends Brian and Rana. Watching Brian see his daughter fully dressed in her wedding gown will be engraved in my mind for a long time. Again this same look as he watched his daughter dance with her husband for the first time at reception.

Your day started out amazing with incredible friends alongside you, 3 amazing men of honor, a tribe of babes next to them, and a group of men that loved to dance alongside Brent. Everything about your wedding was totally you and Brent. From a cookie cake with ballet slipper and Sneaker (you two and your shoes…. Well mainly Brent). Your dance team coming to support you, your dad giving one of the best speeches we’ve heard (made me cry) and watching you beam through sun and shade, was probably my most favorite. Oh an when you told me you were getting hot and my reply was “Ok, Great.” Jenn you know me so well. I wanted your photos to be incredible. I’m partial to you Jenn, I love you so much, I’m so happy for you and Brent, and can’t wait to see you guys again. Please come play and hang out and just be. Like you said in your text message and letter to me… our babies will play together as we laugh and enjoy the days to come.
