Caitlin & Ben’s Wedding | the Baltimore Museum of Art | Gertrudes | Photography

A look at Caitlin & Ben’s wedding from Dave McIntosh Photographics, Baltimore wedding photography and videography.

I met Caitlin and Ben through a referral from Emily, the planner at Gertrudes. We hit it off right away and Caitlin booked me for an engagement session and their wedding. Caitlin was originally from Baltimore. Now she and Ben live in North Carolina.

Weddings at the Baltimore Museum of Art venue are geared towards people who appreciate fine food in an intimate, refined setting. Relaxed and refined is a good way to describe Caitlin and Ben.

What I most remember about the wedding day is Caitlin and Ben had family in the front of their minds and in their activities throughout the day. When Caitlin got into her dress at the Admiral Fells Inn, the first shot she wanted was a picture of her holding a photo of her late mother in her wedding dress. Caitlin’s sister was her maid of honor and Ben’s father officiated the ceremony at Brown Memorial Presbyterian Church. We took lots of family photos at the church and at the Baltimore Museum of Art – BMA.

About the Baltimore Museum of Art:

Over 100 years ago, The Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) was founded on the belief that access to art and ideas is integral to a vibrant and healthy civic life. This belief is at the heart of the BMA and remains our core value.

The BMA has long focused on acquiring the art of the present moment, while maintaining and deepening a historic collection made relevant through vigorous development and reinterpretation in all collecting areas. Through the courageous and risk-taking vision of previous Museum leaders, the BMA assembled and presented one of the most important collections of 18th-, 19th-, and 20th-century art in the United States. These visionary actions established the fundamental character of this Museum.

Building on this legacy of excellence, the BMA will form an equally compelling collection for the 21st century. Socially relevant, cutting-edge acquisitions, exhibitions, and programs will lead the way both locally and globally—and historical accuracy, merit, and equity will become the basis for a new canon across our Museum. Through collecting, researching, presenting, and interpreting the Museum’s rich and varied collection, and by listening to the needs of our audience, the BMA will embody its commitment to excellence, fairness, relevance, and social justice. Every Museum policy and practice, strategic decision, as well as the composition of the Board of Trustees, staff, and volunteers will be driven by these responsibilities. Bold, brave, and essential, it is the unwavering vision of The Baltimore Museum of Art to be the most relevant publicly engaged museum in the United States and a dynamic model for all others.
