nicole + bryan | harbor east | baltimore engagement photographer

When I first met Nicole and Bryan, it was love at first conversation! Our personalities clicked as we talked about our passion for living in Baltimore, Nicole's job as a teacher (my sister is one too!) and our love of their wedding venue, the American Visionary Art Museum.

Since these wonderful lovebirds officially becoming engaged while sailing, we had to capture their love along the water in Harbor East! We debated a few different locations, but when it came down to it, all signs pointed back to the Baltimore waterfront... and you can clearly see how comfortable and at ease they were there!

I love it when couples choose the location of their engagement photos because I know it will hold so much meaning to them and their relationship. If there's any advice I can offer you as you're planning your engagement session, it's to choose a spot that relates to where you met, where you got engaged or where you spend most of your time together. It's kind of like choosing your wedding venue - once your location is set, everything else falls magically into place! :)

Now let's talk about how perfectly Nicole's amazing hair and patterned dress blended with the tall grasses along the water and that golden hour glow... :)

LOVE!!! You two are seriously too cute for words.

Once changed into their casual-yet-super-cute-and-so-well-coordinated second outfits, we were off to explore the streets of Harbor East. I can't get enough of how sweet and joyful they are together! They swore they'd never modeled before, but I'm pretty sure they're pros.

We came full circle and ended our time together at the water; Light City was in full force, the sun was setting like never before and I was overjoyed to be able to spend my evening with such a genuinely adorable couple.

I am SO excited to capture your wedding at the AVAM in July and know it will be nothing short of spectacular!!!
