Devin and Jeff are an adorable fun-loving pair. We were cracking jokes all morning even at 6:45AM.

The first time I talked to Victoria via Facetime, we were on the call for so long that my phone died! We instantly clicked so I had been counting the minutes until this Lincoln Memorial engagement session. This is a classic love story or doctor meets nurse and the two fell head over heels!

When I look at these photos, I can’t believe they almost didn’t happen! Sarah and Connor decided to elope in DC this fall and thus didn’t know if they ‘needed’ engagement photos. I am so glad they decided to take these snaps in Meridian Hill Park! How many times in your life do you get […]

Fanny and Fazim, what a pair! These two manages to pull off the perfect wedding day! They picked the perfect venue for their day. They both got ready in their beautiful suites, married in the chapel, did portraits in the garden and then had a brunch dance party in the ballroom! Park Chateau was a […]

These two fun-loving book worms met in a library so it was only obvious that they lean into this theme with check out cards as their seating chart!
