May 2019 Friday Favorites Giveaway

I’ve got something special up my sleeve, and it’s finally time to share the secret! All summer long, AWP will host monthly giveaways in collaboration with some of my FAVORITE brands and artisans. I’m so excited to share more of my world with you, as well as introduce you to a few of the things that fill my heart with joy!

DISCLAIMER: absolutely no one is paying me to promote our Friday Favorites! All of our giveaway items were purchased by me, for you. I genuinely love these products and want to share them with you!

May’s giveaway is a $50 gift certificate to Simply Jessica Marie, home of The Crest Bar! I’ve adored Jessica’s watercolor and crest designs for so long. When she debuted The Crest Bar earlier this year, I jumped at the chance to have one of our very own! This piece of artwork is so special to me. Some of you may know that we’ve gone back and forth on adding a third child to our family, which doesn’t seem to be in the cards right now. It’s caused projects like this crest or updating our family portraits to go on the back burner, which isn’t good. This crest is a beautiful reminder to celebrate ourselves just as we are right now! I cannot wait to display it on our walls along with our new family portraits later this summer!

Jessica’s crests aren’t just for families: they’re the PERFECT addition to a wedding, too! Just imagine your own crest on your wedding invitations, matted and framed on display at your reception, or even printed onto cocktail napkins! It’s the perfect way to personalize your event.

My favorite thing about The Crest Bar is that there are so many ways to customize each crest. From the color palette, to the icons included, even the florals can be changed. (I chose hydrangeas because we had them at our wedding!) You can even have custom icons created for you, such as a special landmark or even a portrait of your pet! The possibilities are endless, but yet the design process wasn’t overwhelming at all. If you need help, you can always schedule a chat with Jessica to walk you through it!

Click HERE to enter to win a $50 credit to Simply Jessica Marie! Entries close at midnight on 5/27. The winner will be chosen at random on 5/30 and announced via email and social media. Good luck, and happy cresting!

Sailboat Engagement Session in Baltimore's Inner Harbor

 01

Engagement sessions are meant to be romantic, intimate, and centered on the quiet connection between two people in love. For Zack and Kara, their sailboat engagement session in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor was the epitome of romantic engagement. There is something about being out on the water with sunlight dancing across the water’s surface and the […]

I’ve honestly lost track of how many times I’ve photographed this family now, and each time truly gets better and better! Sticking with one photographer over the years is one of the best things a family can do, because it allows everyone to feel more comfortable and genuinely enjoy the session. One thing is certain, […]

When you have clients that love and appreciate art as much as Isabella and Jory, you find a way to showcase that love in photos. For them, that meant a National Gallery of Art engagement session. It turned out more perfect than I could have imagined. Including personal items or highlighting shared interests is something […]
