Madi and Walsh’s love is radiant. Every moment of their wedding was pure joy. From spending the morning with close friends in a stunning hotel to tying the knot in a private Parisian style garden, there wasn’t a moment where they didn’t have giant smiles and look at one another like your lives were about […]

Some couples I just bond with immediately. That’s how it was with Omar and Arezo. They have infectious personalities and are constantly laughing with one another. Their light hearted personalities and goofy spirits lift up everyone around them. I actually met these two through fate: Omar proposed at the DC war memorial just moments before […]

Erinn and Jon tied the knot at one of the most romantic spaces in this city. The only thing that could rival the romance of the historic Anderson House was the sweet moments they shared in their apartment before and after ‘I do’. They shared a first look on their balcony which Erinn had decorated […]

Can you imagine a better setting than the Anderson House for a DC Wedding? While the District of Columbia has some stunning wedding venues, the Society of the Cincinnati has it all: an elegant European vibe with some stunning outdoor spaces. The newly painted black doors make for a classic portrait backdrop and the pool patio area is a perfect setting for a cocktail hour or some small personal vows.

My favorite thing in the world to photograph is proposals. When Billy emailed Sarah to ask if he could propose at our workshop, we were both over the moon!! The plan was set, during the “engagement” portion of the shoot, I would give Billy the signal and set Taylor up for a faux First Look. She was completely shocked!

Today, I wanted to share all of my thoughts, feels and snaps behind my incredible labor of love on my blog. This was hands down the hardest thing I have ever done in my photography career. I’m not going to lie, hosting a workshop is tough. It was the first thing in my business I felt nervous about and I had serious doubts leading up to May: What if people didn’t buy tickets? What if attendees walk away feeling disappointed? What if I failed? Well, I’m here to tell you it was all worth it. The feeling of being able to give business owners tools to become more successful is an all time high feeling for me.
