I always love destination engagements. It’s a chance for me to explore a new place while taking pictures of darling couples. I got the chance to fly up to Albany, New York to spend time with Meghan and Ryan. These two came into my life through our fabulous mutual friends: Spence and Ali. After a short Skype session, I knew that we were a match made in heaven as we were drawing up plans for their wedding on Lake George! We explored Olana (where Ryan popped the question) and ran around with their darling pup Molly.

I have known Charlotte forever! We swam on the same club team in high school in Boca Raton, Florida. She was always a breath of fresh air and so fun to be around. She is not only stunning and kind but she is also a Marine! Charlotte’s commitment to her country lead her on a journey to meet the love of her life: Joe.

This summer, I had the pleasure of photographing David and Becky. Becky was referred to be by a mutual friend who works in her office, Greg Millwater. As it turned out, I actually already knew her fiance! David and I were the same year as Teach for America Corps members! Out of the entire DC region, David and I were buddies because we both had a love of sarcasm. It was fate that years later, I would get to hang out with this magnificent couple by capturing their wedding day! We snapped these portraits at the National Portrait Gallery and Yards Park near their home!

Ah Lincoln. Sunrise. Formal Attire. What more could a photographer want?! Kitty and Andrew met me for the perfect sunrise at one of my favorite spots. After some debate on location and timing, we decided there was no better idea than a classic DC engagement session at the Lincoln Memorial.

This session right here was a DREAM. Alex and Mitch were utter perfection at the monuments this spring sunrise. They decided on engagement photos at the Lincoln memorial because that is where Mitch proposed. Actually, minutes earlier, someone stole his thunder and popped the questions right before he did! What are the odds!? We ended the DC engagement at the Kennedy Center, where the two had their first date.

Liz and Jordan are an extremely authentic couple. Liz is actually super close friends with my older half sister Kristian! She put me in touch and after a short skype session full of laughter and sarcasm, we were planning wedding photos!

This was by far one of the most stunning mornings at the Jefferson memorial. I love shooting engagement sessions at sunrise in DC because you get some crisp marble all to yourself! Brandt and Nicole woke up for this spring sunrise and it was completely worth it!

Abby and Mike are a darling couple. Abby has a smile that is so contagious which is fabulous because Mike always seems t be the one to bring it out of her! We met for their engagement session in Purcellville, Virginia. Abby’s parents have an incredibly charming house with amazing views! We got to snap these photos right before the rain rolled in over the mountains… and what perfect timing with Abby’s hair trial!

To say I have a couple crush on these two is an understatement. David and Meaghan are the ultimate college sweethearts! These two were so natural in front of the camera, I barely had to pose them at all. Even during our rainy session on Georgetown’s campus, these two shined on camera.

I adored this sunrise session with Amy and Craig. These two toured me around their neighborhood of Mt. Pleasant Saturday morning before the farmer’s market. I never dreamed there would be so many fun nooks and crannies just around the corner from their town house!
