I love when clients opt for the Styled Session. Hair and Makeup by Claudine did a killer job on Jamies sunrise beauty! We headed down to a luckily warm December sunrise at the capitol for these DC engagement photos. This couple even brought their adorable dog to location 2: the Jefferson Memorial. A perfect morning […]

Capitol Hill Engagement Session | DC Capitol Building Engagement | Jamie and Bryan 

I always knew this wedding would involve some portraits on the hill. This classic district couple tied the knot at Hotel Washington but we went back to the scene of their engagement photos for a little political flair. M&N were an absolute dream to work with and huge thank you to their team for making […]

It took us awhile to figure out where we wanted to do Paris and Tim’s engagement session but we finally landed on Capitol Hill near the Library of Congress. We started at sunrise and had the whole place to ourselves! I had the best time photographing Paris after having captured her sister’s engagement over a […]

When discussing engagement photos, these two knew they wanted classic DC, particularly because the bride has work ties to the hill! When I mentioned the speakers balcony, Maria had the hookup! We got access for engagement photos INSIDE the capitol which was a huge bucket list item for me! We ended the morning with a […]

Hadlea and Evan are planning a big Texas wedding but wanted to celebrate a little wedding excitement while they’re living in DC! They live mere blocks away from the Capitol so it only made sense to snap engagement photos at this historic spot. These two are naturals on camera. Hadlea is bubbly and vivacious and […]

Is there anything better than being in love and engaged? Anela and Seamus were just adorable all over DC! We began their session with a quiet sunrise at the capitol building before heading to the Lincoln memorial for more DC city views. The first time I met with these two, I actually had a Zoom […]

These two have a very cool history. They actually met online but come to find out, their families are from the same small town in India and their grandfathers used to be NEXT DOOR NEIGHBORS. How crazy is that!? I can’t believe that these two would find one another hundreds of miles away decades after their families knew one another. I think it’s safe to say that fate stepped in here.

Library of Congress Engagement Session | DC Engagement Photographer | Aparna and Prashant

When you meet and fall in love working on the hill, it stands to reason that you take your engagement photos in front of the Capitol! Leti and Stephen actually met while working in this very building. Their friendship/working relationship turned to romance once they changed jobs and the rest is history! We decided to hit the mall at sunrise to get some glowy DC light and boy am I glad we did!
