Baltimore, Maryland winter wedding
Quite a few aspects of Ana + Jeremy’s small November wedding appealed to me while a couple more presented an interesting challenge. I love a small wedding as a change of pace and it’s always cool being in Baltimore. A small dinner reception at a great pizza restaurant before the ceremony mixed it up even further. The tricky part was the 9 pm ceremony in the dark at Patterson Park Pagoda. I had some familiarity with the site having done Hannah + Hal’s engagement photos there in April. My day with Ana + Jeremy’s started with their first look just before sunset in the park. As the light faded we explored inside and around the Pagoda and then we returned there much later in the evening for the ceremony. Thankfully the building was glowing from the inside which made for my favorite photos of the day just after sunset. It was tough to leave the warmth of the restaurant (with awesome custom pizzas) and head out into the chilly night for the ceremony. But it was pretty magical on a still dark night in the midst of the city to watch Ana and Jeremy get married while surrounded by their nearest and dearest. It was a pleasure working with event planner Stephanie Bradshaw who was nice enough to put a little bit about the wedding on her blog as well. Below are some of my favorite shots from the day.
