A Romantic Four Seasons Baltimore Mixed Metals and Lush Greenery Wedding | Meghan + Sean

I typically get nervous the night before a wedding but this was a whole other level. Part of being a wedding photographer is knowing and accepting that you have to be your very best for every couple, every wedding. That day is happening no matter what is going on in your personal life, no matter how complicated the lead up might have been, no matter how you feel. I felt this on a whole other level with Meghan + Sean’s day!

You see, as a photographer, there’s really nothing that puts the pressure on more than capturing events for family, friends or other vendors. This had basically all three.

I’ve known Meghan since college and her little sister is like a sister to me. On top of just being the friend I talk to literally all day every day, Caity and I have been photographing weddings together for years, Meghan surprised me and came to the end of my bachelorette party in Fells Point a long time ago, I’ve been following the story of her and Sean and I know all about the entire Kramer clan. When Caity told me Sean was going to propose, I was over the moon for them! And then Meghan reached out to me about capturing her wedding and I cried, panicked and then said OH MY GOSH YES DUH OF COURSE!

Their day came together so beautifully and Sean was such a happy and calm groom! I loved seeing his huge smile during their first look and just how much he cares about Meg. We all begged, pleaded, hoped and prayed for a beautiful day and after being caught in a storm at their rehearsal, the wedding day was quite literally picture perfect. We had just enough clouds that you could really see the Inner Harbor and appreciate the views, the sky was dry and the sun even peeped out a few times!

Just like with any perfect wedding, the laughs were plentiful, the tears were meaningful and the fun was wonderful! Meghan + Sean, thank you for trusting me to capture this enormously important day for you! I am so honored to have been a small part in bringing this vision to life and helping you remember it for all of your years to come. I wish you a marriage more stunning than the waterfront sunset!

Scrolls to see some of my favorites from their wedding day!

Meghan had a Praying Mantis stuck in the layers of tulle on her dress and Sean helped it out! Praying Mantis are a sign of good luck!!!
