We really wanted the engagement photos to capture us as a couple. We’re low-key and love the outdoors. Well, I’ve learned to love the outdoors. Mr. Piggy was born and raised in Baltimore (poor Ravens!), and will always consider it his home base. He planned out the entire day of our engagement shoot. While I would’ve loved to have seen myself in a fancy dress and Mr. Piggy in a nice suit, we decided to leave that for the wedding! 
We’re both the jeans and t-shirt types and we unintentionally have started to match our clothes more often than not. This is the outcome… we love our photos and feel that they truly capture our personalities! Here’s a quick visual recap of our day.
The day started off at Park School in Baltimore. Mr. Pig attended this school from kindergarten through high school and we loved the nature-type setting it provided.
There’s the little Piglet, George!
We stepped onto Park School’s track and took some neat pictures. Below is one of my faves!
We then headed to Federal Hill for the urban/city setting.
I’m a huge fan of the contrasting pea coats!
This was Inhar’s favorite…
We finally ended the day at the Inner Harbor - we were POOPED!
Hope you enjoyed the show!
Did you take hometown engagement pictures? How many locations did you choose and what did they mean to you growing up?

I can’t decide which I like best! What an awesome, nature-y school…but I’m also a sucker for the urban shots. You’re so lucky to have so many amazing pictures!
Love love love your engagement pics! Especially the pea coats and the one on the stairs! So cute!
Ummm…… gorgeous!
LOVE the Federal Hill and rowhouse shots-so very Baltimore!
Oh my gosh, your engagement pictures are to die for! The lighting is so gorgeous in every single one, and I love that you have a combination of rural and urban shots!
I want to go home…because I love your photos!!!! They look great, I like the Riverside park ones and the peacoats!
Omg, I love the photos. Who did you use for these photos? My fiance and I are getting married in my hometown of New Orleans, but we both currently live in Baltimore and are going to have our engagement pic taken here. I love the way they captured federal hill (which is where I have lived for 6 years)
I’m a fan of the role playing lifestyle engagement sessions.
Gotta agree with Inhar, my favorite is the brick wall shot as well. Especially like the expression on your face. Congrats!
The peacoat one is my fave. It looks like it could have come out of a catalog or editorial shoot.
I second Hot Cocoa- I love the pea coat pic. You guys are so cute!
I totally live in Federal Hill and love the shots! Esp. the one of you guys up on the hill.
So many amazing spots! Mr Piggy did a great job with the planning.
SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I wish ours had turned out this nice!!!
love them!! I soo wish i could wear a peacoat, but I’m allergic to wool 
I can’t find a coat anywhere near resembling a peacoat in any other fabric either!
Hi! I love your photos, it looks so natural. I’m in Baltimore, can you tell me who your photographer is?? Thanks!
@Miss Crawfish and @anita: Hey there! I’m so glad you like the photos! They were taken by Inhar @ http://www.inharchong.com. Her site is still under construction, so I only have her blog for now. Have fun with your photos!
Love the peacoat shots…I NEED a peacoat like that, so would you be willing to share where you found it?
@Lillindy: Of course! I’m happy to share I bought the coat for $48 bucks (I think) @ Forever 21 - or was it $58? Can’t remember 
I’m in love with the lighting for your pictures. We haven’t taken our engagement pictures, but we both live in our hometown, so I’m sure they’ll be here. I also think we will do both a park setting and downtown setting.
Such great pictures! I love the ones in your red coat!
These are SO gorgeous! So natural and lovely! I still want pics like this of us…
these are WONDERFUL!!! you guys look SOOOOOOOOO happy and in love. (which i think is KEY to a good engagement session.)
What a good looking couple!! The pictures came out great! ( I went back to see which one was my fave…but it’s so hard! I love em all!)
LOVE LOVE LOVE your pics!
Gorgeous shots! I might show some of them to our photographer for inspiration, if you don’t mind!!
Love them all..esp the pea coat one, the stairs one, and the last one..by the boats
It’s funny to see my “walk to lunch” in your photos! I love the pics down by the harbor, it’s my favorite break spot! Your peacoats rock - totally makes me want a red one.
I love love love that last picture
FH and I have been frequenting the harbor near my house, I hope we can stop there for our pictures and get a shot as great as that one!
You two look so cute together in your engagement pics. I love the variety of backgrounds you were able to find in the city.
