jessie + will | a classic wedding at loyola and mt washington mill dye house
/Jessie and Will’s wedding day was full of every type of weather you could imagine (other than the fluffy white stuff) but that meant we got to make beautiful portraits and memories in the rain, wind, sun and overcast skies…
These wonderful humans have such a genuine love and respect for each other that is clearly visible in an effortless, joyful and comfortable way. They honestly are one of the most down-to-earth, passionate and fun couples I’ve had the pleasure of working with and photographing — I didn’t want this day or our time together to end!! Maybe that’s why there are over 140 ‘sneak peeks’ in this post for you to enjoy… ;)
Without further ado, enjoy these early favorites from Jessie + Will’s wedding ceremony at Loyola University and emotional and fun reception at Mt Washington Mill Dye House!
7 memorable moments and details from Jessie + Will’s October wedding at the Dye House:
Jessie’s family had a wedding dress made for her American Girl doll, Molly. As an American Girl fan (I had Kiersten!), I love that she had it with her while getting ready in the morning.
Jessie’s timeless and modern bridal look with the Kelly Faetanani strapless Phoebe dress that was subtly sexy and graceful all at once.
Will and his groomsmen got ready at the Pendry; Julie was able to sneak in such gorgeous getting ready portraits in the courtyard without anyone else around which is rare!
Jessie and Will’s first look in Fells - more about it below, but honestly, when you choose one of my favorite walls and urban spaces in all of Baltimore, you’re going to end up with 67,823 photos of it… sorry, not sorry!
Oversized stacked white heirloom pumpkins alongside the bar during cocktail hour and their signature cocktails were not only cute but perfectly Fall festive while staying elegant and classy.
Eight Tree Street Floral crushed the floral + greenery game. Jessie’s all white bouquet was stunning; the hanging greenery above their king’s head table and garland running down the middle honestly left me speechless!
Jessie’s Dad was overcome with emotion throughout multiple moments during the day; the overwhelming love and support their families share and provide each other was so heartwarming to see… it definitely brought me to tears behind the camera each time…!
When it was time for their first look in Fells Point, Jessie and Will chose the perfect spot set away from the buzz of Main Street but close to the water with a backdrop of lush green ivy climbing the walls and rowhouses that remind me a bit of Charleston, SC or even, Europe!
Congratulations again, Jessie + Will! I honestly don’t have enough words to thank you for all of your trust in having us document your wedding! All of your thoughtful hardwork, effort and time travelling to and from Baltimore to plan everything, more than paid off… I can’t wait until you’re both back in Charm City for good so I can see you in person again!
xo,
Naomi
