[Wedding] Alina & Yuriy – Valley Mansion in Hunt Valley, MD

Alina & Yuriy are a husband-and-wife photography duo based out of Baltimore, MD. Back when they were simply a fiance-and-fiancee photography duo, I knew we were going to have a blast documenting their wedding day. Because these two lovebirds were more accustomed to being behind their own cameras, they were different from most other couples; they didn’t want any fanfare or frills, nor any pomp and circumstance. As a fellow photographer who also prefers to be an observer/participant rather than the focal point of the universe, I knew exactly where they were coming from. They simply wanted to enjoy their day in the company of their closest family members and friends…and of course some good photos to go along with it :). Their day started hilariously at their friend’s salon (oh wait…how did my photobooth props find their way into morning prep?).
