Baltimore Professional Headshots

Life, Stories Documented  //  10th July 2014

It is not often that we take on photo shoots outside of the realm of weddings, engagements & love stories. But over the past few weeks, we have been challenging ourselves a bit and taking on additional projects in an effort to raise money for BuildOn – the organization we will be going to Africa with in December to help build a school! It is our goal to raise $4,000 by the time we leave! We are currently at $2,453! Eeek… over half way there! ;)

These beautiful ladies contacted us because they needed some professional head shots for their performing careers! Melissa, one of our former brides is a professional singer and the rest of the ladies (including my beautiful cousin Jenna) all recently graduated from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia and are starting their dancing careers! It is so much fun to hang out with artists who are so motivated and energized to live their dreams! We are certainly cheering them on and are their biggest fans for sure!

It has been an honor to not only work with these AMAZING friends to raise money for BuildOn, but to also help these ladies further their professional careers and live their dreams! And as an added bonus, it was really fun to get out of our comfort zone a bit and shoot some head shots… especially the ones at night! Ryan was geeking out over using the flashes and I was geeking out over the results! ;) So fun.

If you know anyone looking for some head shots or looking to schedule a photography session and wouldn’t mind making payment as a tax-deductible donation, please send them our way! ;) We have over $1500 to raise before meeting our goal… and if we went above and beyond that goal, I am pretty sure the kids in Africa wouldn’t complain! ;) We certainly wouldn’t! More information about our trip and the organization we are partnering with can be found here (along with a link to make a donation if you are interested! ;) ): http://act.buildon.org/fundraise?fcid=288480! Thank you so much friends!

Photo Contest: Win a FREE Photo Session!!!

Engagement, Life, Love, Stories Documented, Wedding  //  1st January 2013

Happy New Year!!!  Wahoooo! We just did a little cheers with our mimosas and good friends Natalie and Hugh…to making 2013 the most AMAZING year yet! We are so excited to think about 2013, but first we are taking a good look back at 2012 with hugely grateful hearts!

It is so incredible to look back over 2012 and think about all of the AMAZING couples who have touched our lives in such a special way! Every single photo session that we have done has left a special mark on our hearts. We always take so much away from each session… unconditional love and joyful happiness are two of our favorite takeaways! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for trusting us as your wedding, engagement and anniversary photographers! This year we even took a sense of adventure away from many of our sessions!  It is crazy to think that we photographed in Paris, Barcelona, Mexico, Punta Cana, Southport, NC, Annapolis, the Eastern Shore, Baltimore, Altoona, PA, Montoursville, PA, Rye, NY, Winston-Salem, NC, and so so so many more locations! Wow! We are so so so grateful for every couple we have had the honor of photographing and for the every adventure they have taken us on!

This year, we wanted to do something EXTRA special for our couples to say THANK YOU for such an AMAZING year! We are hosting a Facebook Photo contest (that is live now!) and we are giving away (not just 1) but 2 photo sessions!!! We pulled 1 photo from every couple’s session we photographed this year and put them on Facebook. The photo that gets the most votes by Monday, January 14th will win a FREE photo session that can take place anywhere in the United States! ;) (Yes! We will travel to wherever our couple would like to go! Who knows… maybe if they talk us into it we would even go abroad?! ;)) The official rules are on the Facebook Contest site. And there is something AMAZING in this for all of the voters too! We will choose 1 person from all of the voters at random to win the 2nd FREE photo session! AMAZING, right?!  Honestly, we are so so so grateful for all of the AMAZING people our business has brought into our lives, this is just our little way of giving back to all of you!

Now, don’t wait… please go vote! And share the contest with all of your family and friends too… maybe if they win the photo session they would share the love with you!?! Who knows!

Thank you again for making 2012 such an AMAZING year! Our hearts are so full of gratitude! Happy 2013!
