Liz and Thomas, what a pair! Thomas proposed at the Jefferson Memorial but since it was under construction, we pivoted to take photos at Lincoln! They got a perfect sunrise before popping champagne at Union Station! A lifetime of happiness awaits!

Classic DC National Mall Engagement Photos | Lincoln Memorial Engagement | Union Station Engagement | Liz and Thomas 

Katie and Haakon had one of my favorite engagement sessions of all time! This secret DC garden blooms in Wisteria once a season and sometimes freezes over and dies so you can’t count on it yearly! They timed it just right and has the best sunny weather before heading over to Union Station. Stunning kids!
