Hey friends! My name is Mandi and I'm a Baltimore-born lover of traveling, kitty cats, and ice cream! I am the happiest girl in the world when I am by the water. Being outside enjoying the warm sun, feeling a cool breeze, and laughing with friends and family by the Chesapeake just make my heart sing! When I’m not busy working on beautiful weddings, I’m trying to motivate myself to go for a run or I’m curled up on the couch with my husband, my 3 cats & a true crime doc. You'll always find me decked out in bright colors, no matter what time of year! As a native Marylander, I love getting out and exploring more of my home state - and beyond!

Mandi was an absolute DREAM to work with! From the moment we first spoke, her enthusiastic, passionate, and caring approach put us at ease. On the day of the wedding (and during our engagement session), Mandi kept everything so fun & professional. She made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera as this was both our first time working with a photographer!! Even though it was her first time at our venue, the quality of her work shows. She is simply incredible, and her work is so picturesque! Mandi truly shot the most stunning photos that captured the most special moments of our big day! We are so lucky to have worked with Chesapeake Charm Photography and we can't wait to see the full gallery-- we know the images will be treasured memories for a lifetime! I can’t say enough good things. If you’re able, work with Mandi!!!

After a decade of photographing weddings in and around Baltimore, I have grown to absolutely love what this city has to offer. While I am a transplant to Baltimore (go Wolverines!) how close we are to EVERYTHING is just fantastic! That's one of the main reasons I love being a Baltimore wedding photographer - there is something for everyone here. No matter where it is, each wedding is both timeless and unique to the couple.

We enjoyed using Tyler Reith as our photographer for our wedding. He did an amazing job taking photos of our wedding as well as our engagement photos. He did a wonderful job of using his artistic eye to take beautiful photos. After the wedding, he spent about 3 hours helping us pick photos to create our wedding album. I highly recommend using Tyler for your wedding.

Photography started out as a hobby for me. I was the family member that showed up at every event with my camera. I was just shooting automatic.

I have taken many photography classes and workshops. I wanted to be the best.

In an age of algorithms, hashtags, and followers photography/video has taught Kenny the true importance of the human connection. To him, photography/video is more than composing a beautiful shot or finding the best light. It’s about finding moments that shares with the viewer a special insight into the couples, the friends, that he has the privilege to document. He strives to capture feelings and emotions that take people back to special moments worth remembering for generations to come.

Lacy was our photographer and I thought she was AMAZING! Kenny was so professional and we couldn’t be happier with our products! Truly gorgeous imagery!
