We LOVE LOVE LOVE when our couples turn their engagement session into a fun date! Maria and Mike knew they wanted pictures on Federal Hill and they knew one of their favorite things to do together is go to Camden Yards and cheer on the Orioles! Why not do some photos on Federal Hill and then head on over to Camden Yards for a game?!?! What an AMAZING evening!!!
Maria and Mike both grew up in the Baltimore/Annapolis area! The O’s have always been a part of their lives… but it wasn’t until they started dating that Maria truly appreciated baseball! ;) Now, she is a pro and probably knows more about the O’s than most! (Thanks to Mike and his O’s history!)
We absolutely LOVED hanging out with these two and we can’t wait to catch another game with them sometime in the future! ;) Maria and Mike, thank you for being adventurous with us and giving us the opportunity to have so much fun right along with you!!!
By the way… the O’s won over the Red Sox 1-0! WAHOOO! Go O’s!
Michelle and Chris’ Baltimore Inner Harbor Wedding was such a treat to be a part of! For over a year, Michelle and Chris have patiently and enjoyably planned the wedding of their dreams! They knew they wanted to celebrate their love while sharing their favorite city with their closest family and friends! I would say they did that and SO MUCH MORE.
Baltimore was certainly shining bright that day! The blue skies, the warmth of the sun, the slight breeze… it was one of the most beautiful days we have ever witnessed in Baltimore! But that was only the beginning.
Michelle and Chris are two of the most genuinely wholehearted people we have ever had the pleasure of meeting and their wedding reflected that completely! As the Pirate Ship passed by in the middle of their ceremony (YES, that definitely happened! ;) Only in Baltimore!!!), Michelle and Chris read their vows to each other. It was incredibly beautiful and drew all of our hearts in! As their guests gathered for an outdoor cocktail hour on the Frederick Douglass – Isaac Myers Maritime Park pier, I found myself thinking, “this would be an AWESOME wedding to be a guest at!”
There is something incredibly special about Michelle and Chris’s love that spilled out among all of their family and friends on their wedding day. It is real, authentic, and super heartfelt love! Celebrating that love, on the waterfront pier, on that beautiful day in Baltimore, is exactly where we wanted to be!
Michelle and Chris… thank you for sharing your love of Baltimore with us and all of your guests! It made us fall in love with our city all over again! ;) From hanging out at the Quintessential Gentlemen with the guys before the wedding, to walking a few blocks through Harbor East to the wedding with the ladies… we LOVED every single thing about your carefully thought out wedding day! Thank you so much for the opportunity to be a part of it! Capturing your beautiful love was such a gift to us! Thank you!!! Wishing you so so so much love today and always!
Huge thanks to all of the wedding professionals who came together to help make Michelle and Chris’ wedding so special:
Also, Marissa Walch! Thank you so much for introducing us to Michelle and Chris! We are so grateful for you! Your AMAZING energy continues to inspire us all! XOXO!
A beautiful summer evening in DC hanging out with Jenna and Matt!!! What more could we ask for?!? ;) Every time we are in DC for an engagement session, we always say we need to spend more time there! DC is the perfect place to roam around… and that is exactly what we did with Jenna and Matt!
Jenna and Matt are planning an Eastern Shore wedding for later this year and we are so incredibly excited to be there to capture it!!! Until then… here are some beauties from their engagement session!!! Jenna and Matt… if you ever need friends to just wander around DC… (with or without the camera! ;) ) we are there! ;) Can’t wait to see you again soon!
It is so much fun to receive inquiry emails from the friends of our brides and grooms! MaryKate was a bridesmaid in Samantha and Rameez’s wedding last year and she is getting married to Pete this October!!! WAHOOO!
Y’all know how much we love our couples!!! and that means we LOVE their friends and family just as much!!! We are pretty much all family at this point! ;) Hearing that MaryKate is engaged is SO EXCITING and knowing that we will be photographing her and Pete’s wedding in October is even more exciting!!!
We had a blast hanging out with MaryKate and Pete (and little Sophie too) in Brooklyn NY! It is such a treat for us to photograph couples in places that have special meaning to them! MaryKate and Pete call Brooklyn home. This is their stomping grounds and no matter where life takes them, they will always hold Brooklyn close to their hearts!
MaryKate and Pete- Can’t wait to celebrate with you in October!!!
Casey and Alex are adventurers. They are dreamers and doers and have the stories to prove it! ;) They had a vision for their wedding day that included AMAZING food, good friends, and an intimate marriage celebration! They wanted to create an opportunity to share their love of adventure with their closest family and friends! And they did just that… and so much more!
Casey and Alex made their dream wedding day a reality! They listened to their hearts and planned the wedding that was absolutely perfectly them in Fiesole, Italy! Their closest family and friends traveled from around the world (literally… New Zealand, Germany, Mexico, Alaska, Arkansas, Alabama, etc.!). They gathered around the romantic candlelit tables at Castello di Vincigliata to enjoy the most delicious meal we have ever enjoyed at a wedding! Multiple courses of the finest tasting Italian menu was perfectly paired with wine! The dinner lasted about three hours and it was DELIGHTFUL! It was so AMAZING to take a moment to look around and see Casey and Alex’s closest family and friends enjoying conversation and relaxing in celebration of Casey and Alex’s marriage! That is definitely one thing about the Italian culture we would love to bring back to the states! ;) Why not have a 3 hour delicious meal and then dance the night away into the wee hours of the morning?!?! ;) No need to rush… their reception ended at 1:30 a.m.! It was a good night for sure!!!
Ohh and did we mention the caterers made the wedding cake right in front of the guests about 5 minutes before they served it?!?! How AMAZING is that?! Such a treat and incredible experience to witness!
Casey and Alex… your wedding was truly dreamy! You got married in a CASTLE in Italy surrounded by your closest family and friends who were there to celebrate YOU and your marriage! How incredible is that?!? Thank you for dreaming that dream and making it a reality! We love your adventurous spirit and we can’t wait to hear all of the AMAZING stories to come from your adventures ahead! We love you guys and are SO GRATEFUL that you included us in capturing your memories! Thank you! Happy Honeymooning in Paris!!! ;) XOXO!
Huge THANK YOU to all of the AMAZING wedding professionals who came together to make Casey and Alex’s Italy wedding a reality!
