I always look forward to a Park Hyatt wedding. There are definitely advantages to shooting someplace often, but each couple adds there own dynamic to the day. It’s a fun challenge for me to find new places to make fabulous photos. Carrie and Adam got married on a steamy day in July (yes, still running […]
The Lincoln Memorial is such an iconically DC spot for an wedding engagement session! Some years I spend more time photographing couples on the National Mall and particularly at Lincoln than anywhere else in DC. Brendan and Nick are getting married in Provincetown, MA next fall and since they live (and met) in Washington DC, they […]
Marynelle + Doug were married on a pretty steamy mid-summer’s day in Virginia. Which tells you that it’s been awhile since I’ve added a new wedding to the blog!! Anyway, their ceremony was held at the quaint St. John’s Episcopal Church in McLean followed by a reception at 2941 Restaurant nearby in Falls Church. Best […]
It’s been awhile between blog posts but not for lack of content. Let’s pick up again with Meghan and Mark’s beautiful St. Dominic’s Church wedding and Decatur House reception in mid-June. It was a photographer’s dream in so many respects. Starting with the bride’s preparation photos–a time when it’s often a little hit or miss depending on the […]
The Hillbrook Inn B&B in West Virginia was such a romantic setting for Connie + Patrick’s intimate midday wedding. The lush greenery of the grounds made for a stunning backdrop for the couple as they had their first look. We took full advantage of the rustic buildings and bridges to make some wonderful portraits of the […]
I’ve spent a lot of time at the Hotel Monaco in Old Town Alexandria over the years documenting bride’s (and grooms) getting ready for their big day. K+J’s wedding was the first time I shot a full wedding there. It was a gorgeously bright sunny day but a little bit on the warm side for […]
There’s a reason why I wait until sunny days to do my wedding engagement sessions and this beauty at Meridian Hill Park (one of my favorite spots for an wedding engagement session) was no exception. I don’t have any control over the weather on the wedding day but I do when we schedule a wedding […]
Henry is always a little suspicious when I show up with my camera. In spite of that, I love catching up with Maura and Pat (who was missed on this trip!) and their growing family. I was excited to meet their newest addition Connor who while he wasn’t suspicious I wouldn’t say he was thrilled […]
What a cute little gem the DACOR Bacon House is in the middle of downtown DC! When I first met with E+C on a very cold winter evening, I’d heard of the venue but it would be a new shooting experience for me which is always fun. It’s a charming historic house at 18th & […]
For a little change of pace, here are some recent favorites from two family portrait sessions. Both are doing multiple shoots which is especially fun for me. I get to document these little ones as they grow and change over the course of a year. Naomi is gaining a sibling in the fall so the family wanted to […]
