So this session is another one of our beloved Fells Point session and it’s so good! Brittany and Joe, what a duo. When we met these guys in person, we knew it would be a blast to cruise around town and also get dinner afterwards. Brittany is vibrant and full of joy… and Joe is calm, collect and sweet… we’ve always said we have the prettiest people on the planet, and I believe it, don’t you!

Joe happens to be one of our past groom’s (Fadi) best friend, so it was super cool for us to be able to work with him, while he’s seen us do our thing! Brittany and Joe, you guys did sooo good. Thanks for trusting us! Can’t wait for what’s ahead!

What a beautiful wedding that Megan and Ryan had! These guys had beautiful weather, and wonderful bridal party, and a reception that was so much fun!

The girls got ready at Megan’s parents house, and Ryan and his guys got ready and hung out in the morning while playing pool. They had a beautiful ceremony in a church in front of family and friends. As husband and wife, they were cheered on my all and everyone headed to Eagles Nest Country Club for cocktail hour and photos!

The night was full of super sweet moments, speeches, family dances, and of course wild party rock dancing.

Megan and Ryan, we are so excited for you! Thanks so much for trusting us and allowing us to be part of your day. We wish you the best!

When you both have a favorite football team, you have to represent your team! We loved that Emily and Trevor incorporated into their classy engagement session a little personality. We started their session at M&T Bank Stadium and did a mini segment with their team shirts.

After that, the outfit change, and then headed into Fells Point, one of my favorite locations for engagement sessions. There’s so much you can capture down there so we were pumped that they were up for an adventure. We had a lot of fun with these two and we knew during that session that these guys would be the best couple to end our 2021 year with! Thanks so much guys for a great session. Loved getting to know you at dinner over Abby Burgers. We are so excited to share your wedding gallery with you… it’s almost done! Woot woot!

We met these sweethearts at another wedding for their friends Mallory and DJ a few years back and it was so much fun to see everyone again at Mandy and Chris’ wedding! These two had such a memorable engagement session driving around Locust Point and Fed Hill hitting all of the iconic spots. On their wedding day, they tackled the rain, even as it sprinkled through the ceremony they held true to what was most important: getting married. They read their vows to one another (after a rock, paper, scissors for who would go first) and then partied the night away. Complete with a full service ice cream truck, their reception was a rockin’ time. We can’t wait to see your final film from Living Radiant Films and relive your beautiful day! Thank you for bearing with us all through the rain, you had an incredible day and we are thankful to have been a part of it!

Oh man super pumped to share this wedding today. Caroline and Andrew got married last year and we were able to document their smaller Beloved Wedding. Last year’s wedding was intimate as it was just the immediate families of both our bride and groom. But they postponed their big party at the Pendry to this year 2021 and OMG is was amazing. It was a packed day start to finish! These both got ready at the Pendry next to family and bridal parties. I especially loved that the girls did a champagne pop on the balcony of their suite. These two shared a really sweet look at the top of the red velvet staircase at the Pendry.

I’m going to kick this blog post off saying that Bridget and Kenny’s dogs are by far the best and cutest golden retrievers and the most obedient at a wedding, even better than kids haha. But really, really awesome dogs that belong to our amazing Kenny and Bridgette! Their pups were part of the entire day from getting ready to portraits through ceremony.

Kenny and Bridgette, Patrick and I were honored and so excited to be alongside you guys. Although we had never met until the wedding day we felt like we were walking into a friends wedding day of. You guys made us feel so special upon our arrival and it meant the world to us. The whole day was fun. You guys trusted us. For not having done an engagement session you guys were amazing with letting us give you direction for posing and hopefully you felt like you got to enjoy your wedding the way you wanted.

250!!!! Before I dive into the beauty and adventure of this day I have to just make it known that Emma and Thomas marked for us our 250th wedding, which is that in and of itself is crazy considering we have only been full-time for seven years. We actually didn’t realize until the following week that they were our 250th couple. Just unreal. Thank you Emma and Thomas! So glad it was you!

This wedding was so much fun. I’ve gotten to know Emma over the course of the last few months. Our time with them at their engagement session was so fun, so we knew so would their wedding be! When you first meet Emma she is vibrant and so special. She makes you feel like you’re the most important person in the room. She’s kind, sweet and definitely funny. Her and I share a love of using the Cricut except she is an expert, she basically made everything for her wedding!

We launched Beloved Weddings in 2020 as a solution to couples still wanting to get married during a pandemic without quality suffering. When Caitlin reached out, I was so excited because this would truly be a beloved and intimate wedding. Caitlin and David got married at the beautiful and eclectic Gramercy Mansion in the presence of family. We spent time in the gardens and around property getting beautiful moments of their love prior to the ceremony.

Shortly after, these two said I Do in the atrium. We were there to take family photos and document a once in a life time event, and for these two, it was evident that they are for each other. Caitlin and David, thanks for trusting me and allowing me to be part of such a wonderful wedding. We wish you all the best!

Yippee! Okay, so first off, this engagement session is a beauty… and two, these guys get married literally next Friday… not this Friday, but next! AHH! We just can’t wait!

Our time with Abbie and Ryan was so much fun. It was supposed to rain and it definitely did at the end of our time together. We literally were chasing overcast skies, praying for great opportunities and sure enough, God provided! These guys had some beautiful lighting, great backdrops, and not a hint of harsh sun. We cruised all around Fells Point! They let us try a double exposure with them, we even busted out the umbrella. At the end of our session, we hung out and ate tacos at Barcocina while it down poured.

Yah for dogs and super cute couples! First off, I love our engagement sessions because most of them take us places we’ve never been before. For Steph and John, Piney Run State Park is super special to them, as John proposed on a hike to the back of the park… they said it would not disappoint so we of course said, let’s go and took a long hike!

We hiked back with them, their sweet pup, and Steph’s mom too! We loved our time with them. I especially loved that John grabbed a lotus flower without question when he was near one on a log so we could style her engagement ring! We loved getting to know them and can’t wait for their wedding next April!
