a couple of engagements

Just a quick post with a couple of recent engagements shoots. First I spent some time with Sean and Marina at the Capitol, wandering around the Hill and appropriately for two lawyers in love, at the Supreme Court. I love shooting portraits there. You get all of the white marble Washington is famous for without […]

Amy + Justin’s wedding – September 25, 2010

I’ve been looking forward to Amy + Justin’s wedding for a long time. It was my first St. Regis Hotel experience and I was not disappointed. They had both their ceremony and reception there and it was a perfect day for an intimate outdoor ceremony on the terrace. Amy’s tears started early in the day […]

Kerry + Danny’s wedding – September 18, 2010

I knew as soon as I met Kerry and Danny that I wanted to photograph their wedding. And not just because it was going to be in Potomac! They are so adorable together and have a wonderful energy and were really excited about having me photograph their day for them. We didn’t do an engagement […]

Christine + Michael’s wedding – The Fairmont Hotel

I’ve got some restrictions on what I can show from Christine + Michael’s lovely wedding at Holy Rosary Church and the Fairmont Hotel but I wanted to share some of Christine’s portraits. They had a very small bridal party so we had time built into the schedule to do a half hour session with just […]

Anna + Tim’s wedding – Columbia Country Club

Anna and Tim’s Labor Day Sunday wedding was part two of my double header weekend. It was another glorious day as Anna and her bridesmaids walked from her parents house to the church. We were under very tight restrictions at the church (no photos basically) but with the help of  my second shooter the wonderful […]

Rebecca + Kevin’s wedding – Oatlands Plantation

I really needed Labor Day weekend to be beautiful, particularly for Rebecca and Kevin’s ceremony at Oatlands Plantation. I got my wish. Both Saturday and Sunday were in the 80s and sunny. It was exciting to finally get to Oatlands after scouting it earlier this summer for Jennifer & Ed’s wedding shot by Toni & […]

Sarah + Praveen’s wedding

This summer turned out to be my season of Hindu/Christian weddings. First in July I had the beautiful wedding of Janine and Ajit and then in August came Sarah and Praveen. I was less nervous this time having shot the Hindu part before so I was able to relax and enjoy the ceremony–and to know […]

Lindsay + Dan’s wedding – August 21, 2010

I was excited and a little nervous as I arrived at the iconic Mormon Temple in Kensington. I’ve driven by the building more times that I can count and even went into the Temple when it first opened. But it was the first time for me shooting a Mormon wedding. Well, actually, not shooting because […]

Photos I wish I’d taken!

It is a pleasure and an honor to work with all of my second photographers. I only work with the best! And in every wedding, they take at least one photo I wish I had taken. A couple times this summer, two of my second shooters shot weddings for my company and in the case […]

a few engagements

Just a random sampling of recent engagement shoots to start off the week! I was thrilled to finally photograph Ashley and Michael. We’ve tried to do this at least twice before and were plagued with lousy weather. It was worth waiting for! We wandered around the Mall and found some great locations and for at […]
