Yah! A Baltimore Engagement session that flew by but crushed by our couple. I’m not sure if I liked our session with them more than dinner, it’s pretty close! Julia and John did awesome at their session. We met them at Lake Roland and threw them into poses as we knew we were chasing daylight and only had an hour with them. By the time we finished, we were all were hungry and headed to Pepe’s for subs and to get to know each other. Let’s just say, we have SOO much history we didn’t even know. Turns out John knows a ton of people that Maggie knows and Patrick and Julia were champions as John shared his life with us and as we figured out all our connections. By the time we finished dinner, we knew it was meant to be and Julia and John were the perfect couple for us! You guys did awesome and we can’t wait to spend a whole day together and not just 2-3 hours. We can’t wait for your day, it’s going to be so fun!

What a cold session but Hannah and Nick did awesome! And so did their dog!

We met Hannah and Nick at Centennial Park about two hours before sunset. We knew where we wanted to take them and knew we were chasing daylight. The park had a lot of construction so our normal route had to be ditched and these two had to trust us as we drove throughout the park. Hannah and Nick, you guys did awesome! We are so excited to get to know you more and can’t wait for your wedding!

It’s kinda crazy to think and learn where couples find us. Lindsay’s parents live in our neighborhood and one day Patrick was out doing what he does in his free time – some project on the property – and a couple introduced themselves and told him their daughter was getting married and they had seen our logo on our car and the sign in our yard haha. Fast forward, these two set a date and reached out to us and we literally hung out on our patio for our first meeting then headed over to her parents house because I hadn’t met them yet. They told us at that meeting that we’d be their photogs and we were so excited! Lindsay and Jesse are such a fun couple and we had so much fun and their engagement session is evidence of it. They trusted us as we cruised old Ellicott City and Centennial Park and we literally chased daylight until we had none. They crushed their session and we are pretty excited to be shooting their 2022 wedding!

Let’s just start with saying the dinner was the best part haha. We discovered during their engagement session that we all love Indian food and decided we should try a new place that none of us had been to. That way if we had a great experience, it would be a win, and if it was horrible, we’d had a good laugh and story. Kelsey and Chad, how much fun… you guys were so much fun to spend time with. If your wedding day is going to be anything like your session, holy moly, it’s gonna be awesome!!

This may be a sappy post but you better keep reading. Heather and Tyler are one of our 2016 couples. They got married on a beautiful September day. Within a year of being married, Tyler got diagnosed with cancer. He beat it once and we celebrated alongside them. 

Earlier this year it came back, in another part of his body. We stood alongside these two, prayed with them, spoke life over them, and declared healing, joy, and believed for the miraculous once again in their lives. 

Guys… yesterday, Heather and Tyler got the news from his doctor that the PET scan came back, and he is in complete remission! Thank you Jesus! I cried in the bathroom yesterday morning when Tyler text us on our group chat. 

We met these lovebirds at a bridal show and they were the winners of the session giveaway. Kendria and Gladstone are getting married in the Dominican Republic (please take us with you) and it’s going to be beautiful! These two did great and Kendria’s dress was my favorite. The two of them together looked so incredible. I’m so excited for these two and the journey they are on!

We shot Jason and Liz’s Tabrizi wedding in 2015, which is crazy to think because of how time flies. When Liz reached out to me and shared with us that they are expecting this March, we were so excited that they wanted maternity and newborn pictures done! Photographing our past couples and seeing their families grow is probably one of the reasons that keeps me passionate about my job because I just feel so honored that our clients come back to us, years later, and include them in more of their pivotal and monumental moments in life. 

Steph and Brad met through mutual friends. These two absolutely love sports… especially the Orioles (I mean who doesn’t love our Baltimore Baseball team!?)… They bonded over their love of sports and quickly became inseparable. These guys live near us in Ellicott City and love being outdoors, watching sports, and relaxing with friends. Steph and Brad wanted their engagement pics at Centennial Lake, where Brad proposed to Steph while on a picnic. They are getting married at Turf Valley next year and we are thrilled to be alongside them as they throw the biggest party of their lives!
