Georgetown Engagement by Photos by Sarah Beth

07.25.13 by Serena Jae

This sweet couple are the best of friends. After a growing friendship, the two of them decided they were the perfect match for one another. Jen adores classic pearls and Marilyn Monroe… but is also a leather, denim, and cowboy boots type of girl. We love how they incorporated these elements into their session!

Though we’re a Baltimore based blog, we love to highlight some of the surrounding areas that are a simple drive away from our dear home. Jen & David’s engagement session was held among the beautiful streets of Georgetown in DC and at a local farm. Thanks for Photos by Sarah Beth for sending over these lovely photographs!

Evergreen Museum Wedding by Natalie Franke Photography

07.24.13 by Serena Jae

We’re honored to be able to share this stunning wedding today from Natalie Franke – one of our photographer favorites and co-founder of Bayside Bride! The Evergreen Museum & Library is a superb location in the Baltimore area and we’re constantly blown away with its gorgeous look and feel! With Natalie being such a talented writer herself, we’ll leave you with some well written words:

“Beneath the towering arches and historic pathways of the Evergreen Museum, Drew saw Emily in her dress for the first time. Tears welled in her eyes as she squeezed him tight, holding on to the man that she anxiously couldn’t wait to spend the rest of her life with. Genuine, kind, and spirited – he was her perfect match and the most amazing man she had ever known.

I had the incredible privilege of photographing Drew and Emily’s Wedding in Baltimore at one of the most stunning venues that I have ever seen! Elegant in every way, the Evergreen Museum served as the perfect backdrop for two best friends to tie the knot.”

Ostertag Vistas Wedding by Lindsey Plevyak

07.23.13 by Serena Jae

We’re simply in love with today’s beautiful, rustic wedding at Ostertag Vistas in Myersville, Maryland! Lindsey Plevyak, the photographer, wrote a lovely snippet about the day – so we’ll let her take it from here!

“Andy and Olivia’s wedding was centered in the heart of the very serene Ostertag Vistas, a small acreage removed just enough to experience a feeling of intimate serenity. This wedding’s traditional elements among historic cottages created an enchanted rustic atmosphere. More than anything, the eager anticipation of celebrating each other was first and foremost amplified through the company of friends and family. The joyous love and friendship of this couple radiates through the photos. I was honored to capture this day.”
