When a couple tells me they want their engagement photos to look like a Ralph Lauren ad, my creative heart skips a beat! That timeless, editorial, slightly moody but totally romantic energy? Yes, please! These hotel engagement photos at The Revival Hotel in Baltimore, and throughout the surrounding Mt. Vernon neighborhood, are the perfect blend of modern sophistication and vintage charm.
From their impeccably styled outfits to the architecture around every corner, this session was giving upscale city romance in the best way.

It is no secret that I adore The Revival! Located in the heart of Mt. Vernon, The Revival Hotel is a dream spot for hotel engagement photos. It’s stylish, elevated, and full of personality. From the bold interior design to the large windows pouring in natural light, every corner offers a creative opportunity.
There’s something extra special about doing your engagement session at a boutique hotel. You get all the luxury and charm of a styled shoot, but with the added bonus of modern design, beautiful lighting, and a sense of intimacy that’s hard to beat.
We started the session inside the hotel, using some of the moodier spaces with rich tones and elegant textures. It instantly gave off that high fashion feel. Think warm woods, velvet chairs, curated art. This space really let the couple’s style shine.






Let’s talk fashion. These two didn’t come to play. Their looks were classic but bold, perfectly layered, and full of thoughtful details. The color palette leaned into deep neutrals and rich textures, which photographed beautifully against the Revival’s interior and the historic streets of Mt. Vernon.
If you’re planning your own hotel engagement photos, don’t underestimate the power of great wardrobe choices. When your style feels intentional, the photos immediately feel more editorial and elevated.





After capturing some cozy, luxe moments inside the hotel, we took a walk through Mt. Vernon, one of Baltimore’s most beautiful neighborhoods. The brownstones, marble steps, historic lamp posts, and quiet streets gave us so many timeless backdrops.
This part of the session felt like a stroll through a European city. It’s romantic, classic, and full of character. And that golden-hour light peeking through the buildings may have been the best part!






If you’re dreaming of an engagement session that feels more like a magazine spread than a photoshoot, I’d love to make it happen. Get in touch here, and let’s start planning!
