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!

Dang, this is a bittersweet wedding for me. Not because of the couple, but because of the memories associated with this couple and their families. I met Christina back in 2017 at her sisters wedding. Amanda and Rob were the first couple to get married. Amanda is one of 3 sisters. Christina is the oldest, followed by Amanda and then Melissa. Melissa and Jon got married 2 years later, and we were asked again by this family to photograph their wedding day. We of course were honored and didn’t hesitate. Then 2 years later, Christina and Jeremy. How freakin’ awesome.

Ohh yah! Okay, so this is a really cold weather but beautiful session! Lauren reached out to me via Instagram and then we made our excitement a reality and Lauren and Nick booked me for their engagement session in Fells Point. These guys did awesome! While it was windy, chilly and hands eventually got too cold to do anything, these guys totally had fun together. Lauren and Nick, thanks for meeting me downtown and cruising around with me for your session. We are so excited for you and hope you enjoy every minute of this season!

What a fun session this was for us. Black Ankle Vineyards is special to our couple and it was only fitting for us to cruise their property alongside our couple Stephanie and Karl!

These two dominated their session. We wanted to incorporate any details that meant something to them, so we used Stephanie’s beautiful oval ring, some wine, glasses and the beautiful aesthetic of the property.

Stephanie and Karl, we are so pumped to spend more time with you and be alongside you guys. Thanks for sharing food and pizza with us at dinner. We loved getting to know you both!

Oooo, this is such a sweet vow renewal to share today!

Alex and Jon got married in 2020 with family and friends but it was small and intimate. They had postponed their large wedding to 2021 and asked us to come alongside them yet again to document a beautiful day as they renewed their vows in front of those unable to attend their 2020 ceremony. We had a lot of time with them, cruising the grounds of Hunt Valley Country Club. It was lovely and beautiful. Their reception was fully of dancing, their first dance witnessed by all and really yummy food and desert. Jon and Alex, thanks for trusting us with yet another momentous occasion in your life. We are so excited for you, proud of you for planning not 1 but 2 weddings in the middle of a pandemic. We wish you the absolute best!

We had always heard skyline Drive was incredible and beautiful. It wasn’t one of those destinations that we were ready to undergo with two little kids Intel. But when Chelsea and Josh hired us for their 2022 wedding they made it known at their consult that they had every intention to do their engagement pictures there. Patrick and I were so excited to have the opportunity to drive down there and do a session there. And let me tell you the view did not disappoint. Chelsea and Josh did awesome at their session. We met them mid day to basically cruise a 30 mile stretch of the Shannondoah Valley to find epic views and capture what was in their mind and heart for engagement pictures. We hopped in the same car and drove and spent basically 3 1/2 almost 4 hours together.

This was such a fun session! First off, it was so pretty! The lighting for Margot and Ian’s session was nothing short of dreamy! We cruised all around the grounds at Cylburn arboretum. Margot and Ian were in town with her parents (and pup) and soon after their session they would drive back home to NY. I loved that her parents got to see us do our thing too! While we wish they lived closer, we know when we do see them, it’s going to be for their wedding! Margot and Ian, we are so excited for our time with you in 2023! Enjoy this season, it will go so fast, so soak up every moment you can!

We can’t believe we haven’t blogged this session! 2021 was insane with the volume of weddings and sessions we had… thanks to COVID and couples being forced to reschedule. BUT that didn’t stop us from photographing amazing sessions and couple!

Allie and Brian reached out soon after they booked us and made it known that they wanted their session at a Hot Air Balloon festival. In fact, I think that when we met them, they told us that and we put it on our calendar before they had even committed to us as their wedding photographers.

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.

What a fun session! Maci and Kyle invited us over to their home in Sparrows Point for this session on the water! We went out on their boat and drove to a beautiful lighthouse on the water. It’s amazing to see how the state changes just a short ride from Baltimore! We were able to get some beautiful shots of their boat, named after Maci. We celebrate their wedding in less than a month! We can’t wait to see you again at the end of September!
