Our first engagement of the 2020 year has happened and we are sooo glad it was Shannon and Rob! I jokingly said, “we’re a little rusty” because it had been 3 days since our last wedding of 2019. We all laughed. 

Shannon and Rob are the cutest! They really didn’t have a set location they wanted to shoot at so we proposed a few ideas and we ended up heading into Baltimore the first week of January into Harbor East to rock their session all around the Inner Harbor. We cruised and covered so much land in a short amount of time. Shannon’s outfit was soo cute (LOVED the black dress) and the weather was supposed to rain so the overcast skies allowed for some beautiful backdrops and lighting. 

Shannon and Rob, you guys crushed it… AND even though you tota

Mandy and Chris just moved back from Annapolis to Baltimore! Welcome home! We did a cute homecoming engagement session downtown Baltimore and got some of my new favorite shots! We went to Locust Point, Fort McHenry, Under Armour, the American Visionary Art Museum, and Fed Hill! Take a note from these two and be flexible and you’ll end up with gorgeous photos! 

I always tell people “Anyone can go to the top of Federal Hill, it’s free!” But here’s the thing… when it’s your home or your backyard, heck ya, you shoot there! 

Krissy and DJ found us online, maybe google, maybe IG, but there’s one thing that’s for sure, when we met these guys, there was no denying this would be such a great match. When we meet with couples we try really hard not to make it like an interview, because it’s awkward for all of us… just like the start of all our engagement sessions. 

A couple weeks ago, we got to photograph a really cute engagement session, at sunrise in Fells Point. You know, we are NOT morning people at all, but there’s something about the lighting and the quiet streets in Fells Point that doesn’t make it so bad. We met Katie and Greg right as the sun was coming up, but since it was overcast, we didn’t get any killer skies. We did however get THE BEST lighting for our couple though and could shoot in any direction we wanted because the sun wouldn’t be harsh at all.

My 2020 couples are blessing me with new locations and experiences and I’m so thankful! For Clare and Zach’s session we went down to Quiet Waters Park in Annapolis and traversed the land! It is such a beautiful park: gazebos, trees, fields, high grass, and water! My favorite part (besides hanging with these two cuties!) were seeing all the fluffer puppers!!  Even at the brightest part of the day, we were able to find some open shade and get some fun photos. 

We met Erin years ago at a Bridal Show. Fast forward to 2019, Erin emailed us, told us she was engaged and asked us to shoot her wedding. She knew she wanted us way back in 2015 or 2016 which is incredible that years later she remembered us and asked us. I felt like I was getting proposed to haha. We were absolutely thrilled when she asked us. We were excited to meet Brian and since all of us are business owners, there’s just this deeper level of understanding that we all get with each other. 

I’ll never forget when Heather sat at my kitchen table in our new home and told leaned over to KC and told him she was going to have to cancel their next meeting. As in they had planned to meet another photographer that night after us, and decided not to. They booked us at our table that night and the rest is history! The only thing that could’ve made this wedding day better was if selfishly, we had done an engagement session with them because we didn’t feel like we had enough time with them on wedding day! These guys had a ton of guests, an awesome timeline, and were covered head to toe in love.

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!
