Megan and Mark’s Wedding Album

Bride getting ready

Last fall Megan and Mark came together wonderful wedding at Baltimore’s Saint Ignatius Church and the Engineer’s Club.  The beauty of the bride and groom as well as the architecture of the setting made designing their wedding album quite the treat.

Groom and groomsmen

Mount Vernon square is a picturesque place for wedding photos.  The classic architecture and monumental marble give a backdrop like no other and give me a lot to work with when putting together a design.

Saint Ignatius is a marvel to look at, and almost every couple married there wants a large wide angle shot shown off in there album.  I’m happy to accommodate.

Sometimes heavy vignettes on photos out of black does a great job of showing the energy of the end of the reception…leading to…

Joanna and Michael’s Wedding Album Design

Bride getting ready page

Joanna and Michael were married last summer at Baltimore’s Marriott Waterfront (take a look at the blog post here).  When it came time to design their album, my main goal was to echo the classic, beautiful, and warm feeling that their wedding presented to me.  The Marriott’s tans, whites, and oranges was a great color scheme match to the soft pink and deep blues of the wedding.  These images are some of my favorites from the book!

Most of the time I try to pick up backgrounds and textures from the multitude of options Gary gives me with his photography, but occasionally I dive into my own collection of designs for some nice flourishes like the one pictured above.

I love it when Gary gives me a photo like the cake shot above!  It makes it so easy (well seemingly easy) to join the power of their stunning cake with the joy and story of the wedding so easily.

And now I begin the parent books – can’t wait!

More to come soon…

It was a fine day for a wedding on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. The Oaks Waterfront Inn is tucked away on a picturesque cove not far from St. Michaels. Although it was mid-November, the trees had not yet given up their fall foliage and the weather was unusually mild.

Carrie and Adam’s Engagement Session

Our couple wanted an industrial, edgy look and the Clipper Mill complex fit the bill nicely. Located between Hampden and Woodberry, the buildings have been repurposed for residential use, artist’s studios such as Coradetti Glass and Gutierrez Studio, the Woodberry Kitchen restaurant, and other commercial activities. Even with all the renovations there still is plenty of grit to satisfy the eye.
