I want to share a wedding I coordinated this summer for a really awesome couple. Mike and Ashley were married at Federal Hill Park in downtown Baltimore, with the reception at American Visionary Art Museum. The weather was incredibly hot – sunny, a tiny bit of a breeze (but not enough to mess up Ashley’s hair!)…in other words, a typical Baltimore summer day for an outdoor ceremony. I worked with Ashley and Mike for about a year, and it really gave me insight into who they are, both individually and as a couple. They wanted their wedding to reflect the essence of Baltimore – plum and coral for colors, to represent the Ravens and the Oriole’s. They also wanted to give their guests something that they could actually use while remembering their wedding day. As Baltimore natives, what better way than with personalized crab mallets? These favors doubled as place cards, and I love it when you can get two uses out of one item (budget friendly, anyone?). I wanted to share some of my favorite shots from their wedding; ones that I think truly capture the emotion felt throughout the day - thank you www.gilletteportraitarts.com and Mike and Ashley for letting me be part of your day!
They decided to go for a “first look” picture. I love these because they allow your photographer to get up close and capture all of the emotion.
Fans helped to keep guests cool during the ceremony.
Stunning shot from above!
Classic AVAM shot - in front of the bus!
Crab mallets act as escort cards and favors!
Coral tones paired nicely with the plum color of her bridesmaids’ gowns.
The bridal party knew how to get things started on the dance floor…
…inspiring everyone to get out there and dance the night away
