Abigail and John remind me of a Ralph Lauren catalog couple. So classic and beautiful. They decided to snap some engagement photos in their home to celebrate their new addition to the family- this adorable golden retriever puppy! Rainy day spring snaps around Georgetown made this cozy DC engagement session one of my favorites.

After nearly 8 years as a wedding photographer, it’s rare that I share an experience that fundamentally changes the way I do my job. That said, I think we are all perpetual students; there’s always something to learn and some way to grow. 🤍 So much can be said without speaking and that reminder was […]
